Not to be confused with the item of the same name.

The Brain Scrambler is a Hardmode, post-Golem enemy that appears during the Martian Madness event. It fires green laser projectiles, at a maximum fire rate of once every 0.67 seconds (40 ticks), which have a chance to inflict the Confused debuff.

Tips

• It is recommended to use ranged or high-knockback weapons against it to keep it away, and to delay the travel of its weapon's projectiles.

Trivia

The Bestiary entry for the Brain Scrambler: "These Martian soldiers brandish crude laser weaponry that releases dangerous short-range radiation, hence the protective helmets."
