Description

Appearance

The Scorpio appears as a small, round, green and purple, robotic scorpion.

Function

"A scorpion that scuttles, jumps on opponents, and poisons them! watch it curl up into a little disc as it flies back to you. It's surprisingly cute."

• This ARM launches in an arc for a short distance after being fired. If it hits the ground, it will "run" on the floor until it reaches its maximum range or hits an enemy.
• When a charged shot from this ARM hits an opponent, it applies a damage-over-time effect.
