There is a large, incomplete Scarab in the [[Scarab (Level)|seventh Campaign mission]]. It is substantially larger and more armored than a standard Scarab, and it appears to be completely mechanical. It has an extremely high amount of hit points, able to sustain fire from up to nine MAC rounds on the easiest difficulty, and it obviously cannot be boarded. In addition to its incomplete state (and immobility), its weakness is that there is a beam of light that it projects that shows where its attention is currently focused.

To slow down the speed of its searchlight, the player must destroy [[List of "Seven" References in Halo|seven]] power nodes. Given the design of the chassis, it is likely that this is an excavation Scarab, much like the ones in ''Halo 2''. It should be noted that the abandoned Scarab in the level [[Beachhead (Level)|Beachhead]] is also referred to as Super Scarab, though it seems to be a normal Scarab in every regard but title.

It should be noted that the abandoned Scarab in Beachhead Campaign mission is also referred to as Super Scarab, though it seems to be a normal Scarab in every regard but title. This may just be another of Ensemble's mistakes in scripting. Another possible explanation is that this was an excavation scarab (as seen in ''Halo 2'') under construction. This mostly comes from the similarities in the two's chassis.
