Battle[]

Tail Laser.
The boss displays the iconic attacks Target Search (called Search Scope in Final Fantasy VII) and Tail Laser. It is stronger than the original, although almost identical in appearance.
Strategy[]
It is best to start off with casting Barrier. The strategy is the same with that of fighting the Guard Spider, of using critical hits or command materia, such Assault Twister+, or Hell Thundaga. The player can dodge its attacks by running around. Using Lightning-based magic is useful.

Etymology[]
Scorpions are predatory arachnids of the order Scorpiones. They have eight legs and are easily recognized by the pair of grasping pedipalps and the narrow, segmented tail, often carried in a characteristic forward curve over the back, ending with a venomous stinger.
