Hardhat Beetle
Hardhat Beetles are extremely durable foes. Not only is their shell hard as diamond (or so it is said), but when struck, they go careening across the floor, reducing the damage they take. The best bet is either to stop them in their track (by freezing or snaring them), or to trick them into a dangerous, damaging hazard.
