Many other tactics are used, varying in efficiency. This is a fairly effective tactic, though it may not cause much actual damage to the Warriors. The usual tactic for handling a horde of Warriors is to simply fire blindly at the nearest bugs. They have no sense of self-preservation, and have a tendency to become confused, passive, or more aggressive without a psychic influence. Warriors are considered expendable by their leading Brain Bug. It is said that they can lose a limb and still fight with 86% efficiency due to their thick exoskeletons and resilience to pain.
They are devastating at this role as they reach out to well over a meter, two feet further than their forelegs or three feet further than its actual mandibles. This is, in fact, not the case, as a Warrior has next to no dexterity with them and, as such, they are merely stabbing and slashing implements. It was originally thought that they use these upper forelegs as 'hands' for grasping objects in a manner similar to that of a Praying Mantis. The two upper forelegs or "side mandibles" are utilized in the manner of swords for attack as well as defense. These bugs utilize a powerful pincer-like mandible that is capable of crushing solid rock, metal and severing limbs as a means of attack. Warrior bugs are quite agile and fast, able to climb and burrow with ease. The rearmost pairs of legs are much longer than the two front forelegs, and serve as the primary locomotion, with the forelegs being a third shorter. They are colored according to their surroundings, causing the most common variant, desert Warriors, to be tan with black and yellow stripes. They approximately 2 to 3 meters (seven to nine feet) long and 2.5 to 3 meters (eight to nine feet) tall. Warrior bugs are four-legged insect-like creatures of the Arachnid species.
They blindly rush their enemy in a type of bloodlust with no concern for their own self-preservation. Warrior bugs are usually encountered in hordes, sometimes in the thousands. They have a reputation for being the most aggressive and gruesome species in the Arachnid swarm. The Warrior bug is the basic grunt of the Arachnids.
