Description

The Null Scout, internally referred to as Corrupted Scout, was an enemy that appeared in Outpost 16, Banlands and Blind Faith as part of the Null & Void Event. It had higher health than every enemy that appeared before it while also being faster than every enemy except the Null Runner.

It can be spawned by the Null Commander, which boosts its Defense to 50%.

Logbook Description

"Scout stared down the Null Scout, and the creature stared back. Scout lifted one arm, and so it mirrored. He lifted the other — Null Scout followed. Scout quickly dropped both arms and aimed his weapons at the creature, who copied it. Then from the side, Trapper threw a landmine behind the Null Scout. Scout grinned, and stepped back — ... and Null Scout followed."

Appearance

The Null Scout is a corrupted recreation of the Scout. It has light pink skin, torn black shirt and pants, and a single knee-pad. It has a few bandages wrapped around its hands. On its head, it wears a black cap and headphones, alongside cracked shades. Its entire body is covered in what appeared to be purple goo.

Event Strategy

As this enemy only appears through Sandbox mode, no strategy section is made for its current version. Instead, a strategy section for the one that appeared without Sandbox mode in Outpost 16, Banlands and Blind Faith is listed instead.

• The Null Scout is significantly stronger than every enemy that appeared before it, making it quite tough.
  • A few tower which worked on previous enemies, like the Golden Scout, Rocketeer, Military Base or Cowboy can be used to deal with this.
• As it is quite fast, stalling towers like the Freezer, Electroshocker or Toxic Gunner can be helpful here.
  • Do note that when it first spawns, it is a Boss, limiting how many towers can stall it, and it always spawns with the Stun Immunity, meaning it cannot be knocked back and stuns only slow it down.
  • Most stalling towers are also capable of reducing its Defense, though as it is rather low this will have minimal impact on the damage it receives.
