Scavenger

"The brainless Scavenger is the lowliest of Terminids. Upon encountering an agent of liberty, it emits a piercing scream that attracts nearby bugs in a reflexive attempt to destroy freedom."

The Scavenger is the weakest and most common of the Terminids that can be found on every known Terminid infested planet and all difficulties. Scavengers appears to be a juvenile Warrior, will approach Helldivers and attack using their razor claws.

Despite their poor combat capabilities, they are most dangerous in swarms, but their most danger ability is causing a Bug Breach, allowing more threatening Terminids to appear. If they see any intruders and are left alive, they will release a cloud of Pheromone Spores, which will alert nearby Terminids there is an intruder within their territory.

Tactics

 * Scavengers are found on any planet with bug missions, and are often seen in large groups. They move quite fast, but their main job is to attract stronger Terminids to the Helldivers' locations.
 * Due to their low health, they can be dealt with any weapon, but crowd control weapons are most effective. Using the Guard Dog or explosives is effective against swarms of Scavengers.
 * It has only a basic claw attack, but should not be underestimated when encountered in large numbers. They can easily kill an unaware helldiver in three to five hits.
 * It is recommended to kill a swarm of Scavengers quickly before one can cause a Bug Breach.

Variations
The Scavenger comes in two other variants with their own unique abilities and tactics.

Bile Spitter

 * A juvenile Bile Spewer that can be found on Easy difficulty and higher. They can spit at Helldivers to slow them down, as well as explode on death, dealing damage to nearby Helldivers and Terminids.

Pouncer

 * A juvenile Hunter that can be found in Easy difficulty and higher. They can use their wings to leap towards Helldivers.
