'''Giant Scorpion''' is a hostile mob found exclusively in [[The Dunes]] (West). It is the primary mob for farming [[Medium Scroll|Medium Scrolls]] and is significantly faster to farm than [[Magma Brute|Magma Brutes]].

Giant Scorpions are tameable via [[King Scorpia Mount]] camouflage — they ignore riders of that mount until attacked.

== Heat Management ==
[[The Dunes]] deals 1 HP every 10 seconds to all players. You must:

* Wear [[Desert Robe]] top + bottom for complete immunity, OR
* Use [[Health Potion+]] to heal through heat damage, OR
* Bring [[Cacti]] (20 HP per harvest, requires Iron Axe + Woodcutting 20) to heal on the spot

Regular potions and food do not work in The Dunes.

== King Scorpia Mount Interaction ==
While riding [[King Scorpia Mount]], all Giant Scorpions ignore you completely.

* Attack a Scorpion and camouflage breaks — they hunt you for 30 seconds
* Every further attack refreshes the 30-second timer
* Stop attacking and wait it out, camouflage returns
* Useful for repositioning or skipping packs

== Strategy Tips ==
* '''Fastest scroll farm''' — bring Heat immunity ([[Desert Robe]] or [[Health Potion+]]) and farm here instead of Magma Brutes
* '''Pack hunting''' — Giant Scorpions often roam in groups; be ready for multiple aggros
* '''Heat watch''' — constantly monitor your HP; heat damage is consistent
* '''PvP alert''' — Dunes West is full PvP outside safe camps; bring friends or fight defensively
* '''Shield + armor''' — Iron or Silver armor reduces incoming damage; bring Shield Potions
* '''Sword tier''' — Silver Sword hits for 30 base + 10 from Strength Potion = 40 damage per swing
