  1. The scorpions only break if the 30k arrow is used, if the 15k or 7.5k arrow is used it stays up, this makes it mathematically better to just randomly pick 1 colour (5.83 meats on average). If you get the 15k all three are still up and you can quickly load one of each colour as the scorpions aren't broken, If you get the 7.5k one you have to guess again, but its a 50/50 shot

  2. Seems as though the 5th spawn has a different path than the other 4, more of a figure 8, while the first 4 are usually all circles. Though I haven't had time to confirm this

  3. Double/Triple spawns will have various safespots where they don't go as the circles are very small, standing on the edge of those you should be able to surge/bd in and out of the area

Overall really good :)

To confirm some things here:

  1. This is not how it works. Unsuccessful attacks will destroy a trap but not necessarily the 30k one.
  2. The path chosen is RNG based, not just the 5th one being different.
  3. Safespots are friends.
