Scarab Shield

The Gilded Scarab is a craftable Pre-Hardmode accessory. While equipped, upon taking damage grants the Scarab Shield buff for 5 seconds, which spawns a scarab shield that rotates around the player. When the buff first activates, it grants +5 defense and then every time the player takes 8 damage, it grants an additional +1 defense, up to a maximum of +50 defense. The defense boost resets after the buff expires or is cancelled upon right-clicking on the buff.
