Hero Scouts come out of Obelisks sometimes instead of catalysts. They then act somewhat like pets, following you and attacking enemies. Scouts have a very high Dodge Rating, so they are hard to hit with melee attacks, plus they try to avoid projectiles. They run whenever they are confronted by a Lieutenant.
Hero Scouts give added benfits though, leading you to Obelisks. They have a chance to "Cure" certain Minions, granting you a better chance to find more Scouts on the next level in a chain. The "Cured" Minions port back to the ship after they are Cured. The curing does not always work, there is a 1/3 chance of this happening.
Scouts come in three subclasses.
Fighters, akin to Sentinels.
Hunters, akin to Ravagers.
Stalkers, akin to Tempests.
These subclasses are not etched in stone.
All Scouts have two abilities, a Basic Attack and a Special ability. The Special Ability only is used when certain conditions are met, such as: there is a large group of Dakspore in the area, the Player(s) is down to half of it's Health, etc.
Hero Scouts change form on each difficulty level, gaining a different look. For Invasion they gain a boost to Movement Speed and Dodge Rating. On Apoc levels they have a new attack, or a variation of their Basic attack.
