Scorpions live in the swamps and deserts of Tibia. They usually hunt small animals but when they get excited they even attack humans. Their very poisonous sting penetrates even thick armor so that they can be a great threat when they attack surprisingly. As their defence is quite weak you should strive to do the first strike.

Knight hunting strategy:
Magic: 30/30
Kill: 45/45
Level: 65/65
Scorpions can be hard for knight. They often do much damage and it can poison you. You will need to kill it fast and probably will and you also need good shielding. So better kill them with magic at bad skills. GFB will work good at group of scorpions but using HMM at single scorpions will be more waste. At skills 45/45 you can kill scorpions with close combat. You need to get the antidote spell before hunting scorpions. You can get damaged much sometimes so better don't hunt them until you get skills 65/65. At skills 65/65 and with a weapon that got 35 attack or more you should be able to kill them in few seconds.
Paladin hunting guide:
Level 20+: At this level you can start to kill scorpions. This is a good level to start because you can make exura vita from this level. You should also have buy antidote at lower level. A good place to kill them on is Ghostland ghoul/scorpion cave. It's at the second floor of this hole. Well that's my advice since I hunted there at level 20-25. You shouldn't have problems to kill a group of scorpions with GFB. Scorpions won't take much arrows or bolts because they only have 45 hitpoints. Better use arrow on scorpions. But avoid to meet them in close combat because they can both make much damage at you and poison you.
Econ 30+: Scorpions aren't really economic to hunt but there can be creatures nearby that give good loot. Scorpions don't give any loot but they give the same exp as their hitpoints. So you can kill them someties with only 1 bolt or 1 arrow.
Items needed (for a safe hunt):
* 1 BP of manafluids
* 1 BP of UHs
* few antidote rune
* 1 BP of FB or GFB
Introduction: You can kill scorpions as a mage easy but it can be dangerous. Scorpions can make alot damage at you and poison you. Avoid to meet them in close combat.
Procedure: You should be level 20 or more before hunting scorpions. You should have exura vita and exana pox before hunting scorpions. Use your wand/rod that damages with fire or energy. Scopions are immune to poison so don't use your poison wand/rod. Try to keep the distance from it and you will kill it with few wand or rod shots. But scopions aren't really good for hunting. Better go rotworms, dwarfs or larvas instead of hunting scorpions. But you can find scorpions on the way to Drefia and Venore dragon lair. So if you want go to Drefia or Venore dragon lair be ready to meet lot of scorpions on the way.
Safety rules:
* Always use manashield if you meet a group of scorpions at once.
* Always have your BP of FB or GFB and BP of UH or manafluids open.
* Always try to keep the distance from the scorpions.
* Always eat food when you hunt scorpions.
* Don't go hunt scorpions if you don't have exura vita and antidote/antidote runes.
Attacks
1. Close combat
Scorpions are using close combat. The scorpion close combat is strong and it can be normal that it makes 30 damage or more.
Paladins often get damaged alot by them since bows and crossbows are two-handed. Scorpions can come it groups so watch out because you can die fast. They can also poison you while using close combat.
2. Poison
Scorpions got very strong poison. You can get hitted by it when standing in close combat. The poison can start with even up to 18 damage. It normally starts with 15 damage. It makes 15 damage and then again 15 and maybe 14 next and lower until it stops. The antidote spell can be live saving if you go hunt scorpions.
3. Flee from battle
Scorpions can flee from battle when they got 5 hitpoints or less. Scorpions don't got much hitpoints so it won't take long until they die or flee from battle. You can kill them fast when they flee from battle since they only got 5 hitpoints or less then. This isn't a big problem for a higher level player.
I'm not done.
