Special Abilities

Bombardier Blast (Ex) Standard Action, 1/Enc

Once per encounter as a standard action, the beetle may unleash a tremendously noxious and loud blast of acidic goo. This Blast affects a 15-foot cone. All creatures caught in the area of effect suffer 1d8 of acid (energy, common) damage. In addition, they must make a Fortitude saving throw against a DC of 15 or be deafened for one hour. The deafening portion of the Bombardier Blast is sonic-based.

Giant Bombardier Beetle

Giant Bombardier Beetle

Giant Bombardier Beetles are a type of massive insect that is occasionally seen even in civilized areas, and is discouragingly common in wild, unclaimed areas of the world. They are scavengers and omnivores, and will eat basically anything they can catch. Their powerful jaws make short work of prey, and their powerful natural blasts of acid give them an edge against other predators.

Combat Tactics

Bombardier beetles are dangerous foes. They will move in quickly and unleash their Bombardier Blast power upon as many foes as they can, and then will try to use full attacks as often as possible on their deafened foes. Since they are effectively mindless, they will never seek to flee.
