Notes

• Unlike other scarabs, she is a ranged attacker.
• Sometimes she is hidden at first and won't popup until a party member approaches her spawn point.
• She is surrounded by several Scarab Nest Builders who use lots of traps. Melee characters should be especially careful.
• The Scarab Nest Builders surrounding Kepkhet won't move if attacked from flatbow or longbow range.
• Kepkhet can be pulled and won't return to the nest if at least one of the Scarab Nest Builders has been killed.
• If she casts Mark of Protection, applying a condition or hex will cause her to use Contemplation of Purity which will remove Mark of Protection.

Trivia
