How to Find & Beat Scorpion
Scorpion spawns at one of three random locations per match. To find him:
Check the map from the Battle Bus—his Medallion icon will reveal his location. Land at his POI and activate the boss fight by interacting with the arena gong. Keep your distance—Scorpion is a melee brawler. Use Assault Rifles or SMGs to deal damage from afar. Avoid the edges in The Pit—he can kick you off the bridge. Dodge his spear attack—if he pulls you in, he’ll unleash a deadly fire combo.
Once defeated, he drops First Blood Medallion, Scorpion’s Mythic Kombat Kit, Collateral Damage Assault Rifle (Epic) and Chug Jug.
The Ultimate Kombat Kit: Is It Worth It?
Scorpion’s Kombat Kit is one of the strongest melee weapons in Fortnite, featuring: Punch Attack: 25 damage (Mythic), 20 (Epic), Fire Breath Attack: 20 damage (Mythic), 15 (Epic), Throw Spear Attack: 45 damage (Mythic), 40 (Epic)
It’s a deadly close-combat weapon that can pull enemies in, deal fire damage, and chain brutal combos. The Mythic version has no durability limits, making it a must-have for aggressive fighters!
