Mutated Scorpion

Mutated Scorpions are Pre-Hardmode enemies, which spawn in the Desert. They rarely spawn after the Eye of Cthulhu is killed and can be caught with a Bug Net. When caught with either a Bug Net or Golden Bug Net, it becomes a Boss Summon item that summons Wasteland on use. It can only be used in a desert or else it won't activate.

Trivia

 * Mutated Scorpions were formerly only obtainable by being crafted.
 * Mutated Scorpions were inspired my Deathstalker Scorpions, this was due to the scorpion's unique color patterns and behavior towards certain predators.
