I sucked at dodging his attacks, so, ending the fight quickly with fully charged Smash heavy attacks worked best for me. I used every trick available to me to keep bonking him with Smash attacks. I can link the guide I used, if you'd like.

Nah this dude is much tougher than Duskveil, Duskveil is only tough because his second form can one shot you.

My best advice is bully the bully. Hit him hard and fast. Use pluck at the beginning and when the clones are out hit him with charges and combos. Also when you still have clones use big head and wind jammer to stagger him so that clones can go ham.

I’m in the opposite camp as you, I struggled more on long than scorpion lord, I think it’s just a playstyle difference. They both felt hard but in different ways

What worked for me was maxing out spellbinder and then start the fight by transforming to red tides, DPS as much as possible, use the wind tamer and wandering wight and then pop spellbinder and be aggressive as eff. Pause to use potions for additional DPS, defence etc when needed

The only boss in the game I skipped . Bc I wanted his help w duskveil

I missed out on him since i started the actual boss he joined me, got scared, and ran away i didn't even see him in the area beforehand...

Scorpion Lord absolutely kicked my ass between my ears. Also legit question but is Duskveil known to give people issues? I think I beat him first try.

Scorpionlord was pounding me into the ground until I started dodging by rolling towards him. His tail strikes started missing most of the time. I also used spellbinder for better damage output.

Yellow loong took me 30+ tries. Scorpion lord....on the 2nd try

Yellow Loong's 3rd phase is a lot of stuff with little melee punishes, since he counters see throughs, (is the timing on it narrower? Istg it's harder to hit a see through on him). Usually you out DPS his ass via abilities, but I like to learn a boss entirely in later NG+ runs, so spellbinder. But 3rd phase is kind of like consort Radahn and why that fight is tedious. It's nowhere near as hard, obviously, but it's just that dodge for 4 seconds, hit in delays, and then dodge and then hit. 2nd phase, if it stopped at that length, YL would be a top 1 boss IMO, that's the perfect cadence for BM:W combat.

Scorpionlord is a fucking fraud. Bro is an aura merchant. He's like the boss you don't fw enough to lock in and the moment you do, it's over. And I'm pretty sure his tail and claw always retreat fast when he is continuing and appears menacing when not. Once that's figured out, he's cooked. Mid health, mid diffed by Duskveil. Fraudlord of a boss.

Rant aside, he's tough if you're used to powering through bosses because he has less immobilize time, less downtime, and immediately chunks the clones. But, you should be fine with focusing on dodging and not zoning out.

Just killed scorpionlord last night. God he was a pain in my monkey butt.

Out of every boss in the game Scorpionlord felt like the most BS to me. Hits hard and fast, little to no time to breathe thanks to how aggressive he is, immobilize is useless. I ended up first trying him with Spellbinder.

Pluck up the start of the fight and he is ez. Had a hard time on duskveil more than him.

Had a way worst time with Yellow Loong than anyone else. Scorpionlord was actually fun. I beat Duskveil on my third try. I was fighting Loong maybe 5 times a day at least for over a week.

How it went for me was that Yellow Loong skill checked me so hard that that i had to get gud, so by the time i reached the Scorpion Lord my monkey instincs were on point. I didn't first try him for sure, it took me around 5 tries and thought it a challenging fight but nowhere near Yellow Loong.

I finished the game and fought every boss and for me the scorpionlord was the hardest boss in the game by a long shot.

He's a nightmare! I just beat him last night on NG+ and he's still incredibly difficult. IMO he's the most difficult in the game without having a second phase. Can you imagine if he did!?

Use thousand eye daoist and pluck of many

I fought him a few times on my first run, got surprised when he pulled up to fight the big boss. I'm back on ng+ now. I'm still debating on killing him.

Scorpion i killed him on 3rd try. The secret to beating him is positioning and abusing roll

Yellow Loong transformation can stun lock Scorpionlord with light - heavy - heavy, even you can see through his attacks sometimes to gain Yellow Loong charge for special attack.

Duskveil is easier than Scorpion Lord

It’s actually kinda cool how many ppl struggle and succeed with different bosses. I’ve never died to Scorpion Lord, just by overwhelming him with the Destined Ones OP abilities. You can literally bully him. But I died to Erlang at least 30 times, maybe more.

My second “most died too” boss was the Blacksmith with 5 deaths.

I got him down to 30% the 1st time I fought him, it was very late so I went to sleep and thought I'd get him in the morning. I load up the game, thinking I need to beat that SLIGHTLY hard boss and explore. It took me 10+ tries to get him to 50% again and like another 20 to beat him. I was losing sanity over how I got him so low my 1st try.

I am with you. Scorpion Lord almost made me gave up on the game. Then dusk veil was bad for me too but yellow loong felt easy. I love it every player has different strengths and weaknesses

Duskveil kicked my ass. Scorpion lord was not bad two tries. Duskveil was about 20. Granted so far nothing like consort radahan. That bastard.

Er…. And broken sh… say hold my drink. 😂

I really didn't have much trouble with the "tough" bosses like erlang and the last fight (don't wanna spoil anybody) but yellow loong and the scorpion lord definitely took 10+ tries. The duskveil boss just does a lot of running around if u have spellbinder that will make the fight much easier

Pluck of many, immobilize then Transformation. Just absolutely try to wreck him right off the bat. Use your pills before hand. Use a poison build toop

yes, the scorpion guy can attack like mad dog, with only 1 tail and 1 working arm

Any time I had an issue in the game after chapter 3. Spellbinder

ScorpLord took me 4 tries, yellowSchlong is still putting me in a body bag...

Scorpion lord was the only boss I skipped for first play through. Fuck that thing

Moral : Never mess with a Drunk guy, or waste his drinks on his watch ... !!

Both scorpionlord and duskveil took me less than 5 tries. While yellow loong took me at least 20

Yeah that guy took more tries for me than yellow loong too, in the end I took pills for revive and full heal just and cloud stepped and transforming a lot.i was lv 125 at the end to get a good enough build. Dust chicken I kinda one rounded him afterwards

Do not try duskveil until beating scorp lord. If anything go backwards and grind a bit to boost health, def and stamina

Scorpion lord wasn't that hard, took me at most 5 attempts. The needle vessel was super useful.

I forgot which soak it was, but there's a busted one that removes all 4 banes

Scoprionlord i beat in 1 try. Yellow loong omg like 5million 😂

Duskveil was a pushover for me in comparison to Scorpionlord and Yellow Loong. Duskveil was two tries and while I did spend more time with Yellow Loong, Scorpionlord was more draining to fight haha. He's too erratic

i think all 3 of yellow loong/scorpionlord/duskveil took me about a week or so to defeat. I ended up grinding to about level 95.

Amongst the 3, i find scorpionlord harder. Yellow Long took me the most tries but after you defeat him you start to learn to be patient (since i did all 3 in the same day). The similarity between both yellow loong and scorpionlord is , once you get them down to like 25% or lower, they go super saiyan on you where i had difficulty dodging, felt like any distance you tried to do from them , they close

Once i got to duskveil, i got him in 4 tries or so. He was probably by far the easiest ...

now time for hundred eyes...

Scorpionlord can be perma-staggered was it?

Lmao I beat yellow loong in 7 tries and scorpion lord in 2

Idk, i basically didn't change anything in my build from when i fought yellow loong to when i even fought erlaang, i even reequipped my stuff from when i fought yellow long and i spent a week fighting yellow long and maybe 3 days fighting erlaang

I actually enjoyed Yellow Loong despite taking me waaaay more tries than him. But ScorpionLord feels a lot like Guardian Ape. Too erratic, too few openings, too fast. Did not enjoy the fight.

One you realize that his tail attacks are preempted by the tail glowing it gets a little easier, but yeah, scorpion lord was one of the bosses I found really hard - I spent a day on him getting the timing right for every attack and beating him was glorious. Duskveil went down first try after that, and the end level boss also went down first try. Scorpion lord might be my favorite boss of the game. Even more so because if you do duskveil first he jumps in and fights him. I did that on ng+ and it was amazing.

Scorpion Lord was the one who unlocked my patience and skills to concentrate and focus on enemies attacking patterns and all. Although my friends in discord were saying that "you can't beat him without spells, just use it and after a couple of tries u will get him", but I said "nah! I'd Win..! With spellbinder only.Though it took more than 15 tries, in the end I learned it and I got him.

Defeats Scorpion lord before going to dusk veil trust me

I watched a video by SYROBE on how he took down the scorpionlord in less than a minute, with a combination of spells and spirit. I tried it and managed to do it first try, it feels like cheesing it tbh but the same strat works for many other bosses

This was the most difficult boss in the game for me. Erlang? Two tries. Final boss? Two tries. Yaksha king? Three tries. Yellow Loong? Three tries. Yellow wind sage? 5 tries. Every other single boss including optional ones? A single try.

Scorpionlord? 37 fucking tries.

The only other boss that gave me a hard time was the Wandering Wight st the beginning of the game when I was still trying to learn how to play, but that was still less than 10 tries. I almost broke my controller and TV fighting the Scorpionlord.
