PoE Bestiary Scarab of the Herd

The Bestiary Scarab of the Herd in Path of Exile offers a strategic way to potentially encounter a much larger pack of Red Beasts, increasing your odds of capturing them and acquiring their valuable bestiary crafts. Here’s a breakdown of its effect:

Boosting Red Beasts:

  • Conditional Spawns: If the area you use the scarab in already contains Einhar, the master associated with Bestiary encounters, then the scarab triggers the spawning of 5 additional Red Beasts. These are the rarest type of beast and offer the most valuable crafting options.

More Beasts, More Crafting Options:

  • Increased Capture Potential: With more Red Beasts around, you have a higher chance of successfully capturing them using nets. This translates to a larger pool of beasts for crafting purposes.
  • Enhanced Bestiary Options: Red Beasts offer the most potent crafting modifiers, so capturing more of them expands the possibilities for crafting powerful gear or consumables.

Things to Consider:

  • Einhar’s Presence is Key: The scarab’s effect only activates if Einhar is present in the area. Make sure to check the map mods before using it.
  • Prioritize Capturing: Focus on capturing the Red Beasts over eliminating them. Use the appropriate nets to capture them effectively.

Alternatives:

  • Bestiary Scarab: This scarab offers a more generic increase in the number of beasts that spawn in the area, not specifically targeting Red Beasts.
  • Other Scarabs: Consider using scarabs focused on different mechanics depending on your needs. For example, Breach or Legion scarabs offer encounters with alternative content and loot pools.

Who should use it?

The Bestiary Scarab of the Herd is ideal for players who:

  • Want to specifically target Red Beasts for their valuable crafting options.
  • Enjoy the strategic element of using the scarab in conjunction with Einhar’s presence.
  • Are actively working on bestiary crafting and require a larger pool of Red Beasts.

Remember:

The Scarab of the Herd is a powerful tool for acquiring Red Beasts, but it hinges on Einhar being present in the area. Make sure to check the map mods before using it and prioritize capturing these rare beasts to maximize your crafting potential.
