The beetle is my emotional support pet, I dont use it in the bayou, instead, when I get stressed I take it out and ponder why I am playing this game, why did my ex left me and if I ever will reach the expectations of my parents, then I pet their head and everything is ok
I love the beetles so much and try to use them as best as I can whenever I get my hands on them. Saw the comment about names and have actually already given them some "Jimmy" for Stalker, "Rodney" for fire and "Claire" for choke.
I love beetle! 🪲 I get a ton of beetle value when I kill the boss, and am just watching and waiting for approaching enemies, and it's just safer and easier to beetle while boss is banishing rather than peeking. I like the choke beetle, as it's a bit cheaper, can put out a burning teammate at a distance wherever there are, and can leave a lingering cough on pushers. But obviously the real reason to take beetle is the inspect animation that pats its cute little head.
A very scummy thing i love doing with my beeble is downing someone from mid range then covering their revive with the beetle. The trick is to fly just far enough they wont try to shoot, but close enough that when you see them start to res you can fly in for the kill and chip another health chunk off the fresh revive.
