Spirit Mod- Scarabeus

As you may know, I have started a modded expert mode playthrough. (Mod list found here) At the moment I am using mixed class, but will use melee by hard mode. Now, to the boss.

The first boss I have taken down is Scarabeus. It is relatively easy to fight, as the AI is simple.

The boss summon item is the Scarab idol, made with one sapphire or topaz, and three antlion mandibles.

Gear:
Wulfrum Helmet (melee bonus)
Wulfrum Chestplate
Ancient shadow leggings

Family Heirloom
Plague-thingy (can't remember name at the moment, dropped by corruption enemies)
Life Jelly
Hermes Boots
Shackle

Weapons: Eaters Staff, from corrupt enemies
Flute, from surface chests
Rally, dropped from Giant Shelly, Salamander, and crawdad.

This boss is extremely easy if you have a Eaters staff. All you must do is get under it, with blocks seperating you and the boss, and then let the eater do the work. The AI for the boss isn't great, so it
just flails about overtop of you and kicks up sand. You must be careful, however, as Scarabeus appears to destroy platforms (citation needed).

That's all for now! -Rocky
