Detailed Tactical Info
Small, mostly insignificant ARC that scuttles around quickly. It will sit on a wall, a roof, or in a corner preparing to pounce. When a Raider is distracted, it will attempt to jump on them and attack them. They can be dealt with quickly and easily, but where they shine is when paired with other ARC. If not dealt with quickly, they can expose a raider long enough for another ARC to quickly dispatch you.
Combat Advisory
When dealing with one, obviously make sure to check any dark corner in a room as well as the roof above your head. If you suspect one is nearby, listen for the unique sound it makes, as it makes a relatively loud call when jumping, giving you a moment to dive out of the way before it strikes.
