Scorpions are hard hitting enemies that emerge from the ground as the players gets close to them.

Behavior[]

The scorpion is buried in the ground, emerging only when the player gets close. It has a short range attack, stabbing its tail at you dealing massive damage and poisoning on hit which deals DoT damage. They also have a ranged attack, shooting a small, slow travelling ball that also poisons on hit.

Moveset[]

Tail swipe

  • Description: Performs a close range tail swipe which inflicts poison on hit.
  • Can be blocked, parried, and dodge rolled.

Venom shot

  • Description: Shoots a slow, long range projectile that inflicts poison on hit.
  • Can be blocked, parried, and dodge rolled.

Strategy[]

  • Both its stab attack and ranged attack can be parried or rolled through. However, the stab attack can be quite difficult to parry due to the short duration given before the attack lands, giving you little time to react. It is therefore advised to move as far as possible before attempting to parry its ranged attack.
