For anyone wondering how strong these creatures are, I tried attacking one with 16.34FS, full 50ql chain armour and dual 40ql longswords with 55/48 [[Flaming Aura]] cast on them. Just for reference, I can easily kill focused adolescent huge spiders and brown bears without going below 50% health.

Scorpions have very strong armour, someone with 20 small axe skill and 50ql small axes may do 10-15 damage to spiders, but the same stats and equipment may only do 2 damage to scorpions.  
 
 
I started attacking the scorpion, focused shortly into the fight, and died leaving it on bleeding(I didn't see the scorpion focus). I returned, gathered my stuff(it wasn't starving, and my copse was butchered, which would suggest that they butcher corpses near them), tried attacking it again(this time it had a 20dmg medium wound), I killed it but I only had 23% health. I'd suggest having 30+ FS with at least 30ql gear before trying to kill one, of course, the FS needed will go down with armour enchanted with [[Aura of Shared Pain]] and weapons enchanted with [[Flaming Aura]].
 
 
 
I had the opportunity to kill 2 adolescent scorpions separately, and tried to see how height bonus affected the fights. Both fights had the same setup as in the first paragraph, except now I have 20FS and both longswords are 56ql, for the first fight I had a nice height bonus and killed the scorpion, 80% health remaining. For the second fight(after healing)) I took the scorpion down to equal ground and killed it, I had 30% health.

Description

A monstrously large scorpion, usually found in the forests or in caves. They can be seen easily thanks to their high-profile tails.

  • Appear to be stronger than a bear and huge spider.
  • Appear to have good armour.
  • Fast attack speed.
  • Does stinging, clawing and biting damage.
  • Can sting 10dmg per hit on unarmoured bodyparts.
  • Moves slowly, can be outrun fairly easily even on grass.

Notes

Scorpions have very strong armour, someone with 20 small axe skill and 50ql small axes may do 10-15 damage to spiders, but the same stats and equipment may only do 2 damage to scorpions.
