Starburst Bug Information

Beetles that can be found in star-shaped clusters. Once established in a location, they remain stationary there for ages.
Their shells are covered in a type of dust that reacts to external stimuli, yielding a change in the creature's color. Upon impact, such as from a monster, the dust detonates. While this detonation will cause harm to creatures exposed to it, the beetles themselves are protected by their hard shells, and will simply flee.

• Starburst Bugs are Hunting Helpers that can be placed inside the Helper Cage and released at the hunter's discretion.
• More usage details will be added as information becomes available.
