This ability is used in two steps. First, you press and hold 4 to start charging it up - it will eat your health (a LOT of it) and generate a percentage of the armor (displays as a buff). You can charge it up to 100%. Be sure to restore your health using dessication afterward!

The second part is having the scarabs attack enemies and heal you and your group. Tap the 4 key and it will use up 25% of the built up scarab armor as an AOE, afflicting nearby enemies with a DoT that restores health to allies in a radius around them (determined by power range).
