As these die, they will explode and put a stacking debuff on players.

Credits to Naleag for the kiting spot for scorpions as a DK. The area Naleag described is around here.

It is spacious and only one Hellhound comes close to it so you can kite the scorpions a lot easier than any other place when the instance is freshly reset. As he said the tricky part is actually pulling the scorpions there. It might take 3-4 tries to succeed but you can pull 4 packs and kill them at the same time.

The strategy i used as a Frost DK was to mount and go here. Take some time to watch all the adds movement patterns and pick the best time when the 2 Surgers have already passed by, no Hellhounds are close and the caster/melee naga group is headed to the entrance then still mounted you run by and aggro the left scorpions pack then the 2 left groups and the far right one lastly. Then run to the kiting spot while watching for surgers passing by, giants and nagas. Be aware that if the scorpions go through or very close to a mod while following you they will aggro it and it's a wipe.

If you manage to get the scorpions where you want them it comes down to spamming Howling blasts and Death and Decay while watching not to be trapped in a corner. Use your cooldowns/trinkets every time they are up to maximize damage done. It takes about 30 minutes on 25 man to down the little scorpions and 45 minutes to kill all the big ones (self buffed, ilvl was 360 and was doing 24-25k dps) so there's a lot of room for an error and you need to be focused and patient. Also be sure to loot the little ones while you continue to kite the big ones as their corpses will despawn.

Good luck to all !

It basically says here on wowhead that on 10man in over 7500 kills of this mob not a single epic or pattern dropped, is this a bug with wowhead or does it pretty much mean that the little fire scorpions can't drop epics on 10man or have extremely low droprate for that as opposed to 25man version, which with fewer kills have logged plenty of epics.

I just killed 5 scorpion packs and got 2 Feuergebundenes Kehlstück from the small scorps.

So they still drop epics.

I kill all of the unbound smoldering elementals and the 1 pack of scorpions that spawn with a 1/7 lockout, i've seen proabbly two dozen epics in the last few weeks, none of which were from a scorpion. At this point I'm only pulling them because they make my elemental shaman's Fire Nova more powerful and still drop a good bit of gold

Can anyone confirm an epic drop from these on either 10 or 25 as of this date? Why waste my life farming trash that won't give me epics when I could be busy wasting my life in arena.

Kommentar von Muhnophonic

These mobs have random aggro, so if you do the runs with a friend (lets say if he/she needs rep with a twink or just wants to help you out), they are kind of nasty because they just run out of the mainpack of mobs and get less ae. so you actially want to let them be and just farm pyrolords packs and turtles.

4th august, got the hunter bracers from one of these guys.

Kommentar von Revmaynard

They do still drop epics. The drop rate is super low though. I've gotten 2 items in 839 kills, the Cleaver and tank neck.

Theese just got hotfixxed to be immune to slows as of 9/8/2011. They are no loger soloable.

Kommentar von zzacc

Definitelly no longer soloable after 09.08.11.
They now move over 9000% faster and are immune to slow effects.

anyone can confirm those still drop epics as of 28th October? Wondering if they are useless to kill now (there is a tricky way I found to solo them in both 10 and 25) I know the turtles got extremely low drop chance now on 10man, just wondering if scorpions drop anything now at all.
