The Scorpio is a unique ARMS weapon with the Poison attribute.

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."


  • When on the grounded, 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 used midair, the ARMS will fly towards the target like a boomerang with a much shallower arc.
  • A Rush fires off the scorpion like a frisbee, if it misses it'll loop and return, if it lands it will cycle around hitting the target multiple times; weight class of the projectiles is increased to Heavy for the duration of the attack.
