==Overview==

Scorpius units are ballistic turrets that are deployed onto battlefields by [[Red Legion]] and [[Loyalists|Loyalist]] forces. They are fragile, but make up for this weakness with an astonishing amount of firepower.

Scorpius units are ballistic turrets that are deployed onto battlefields by [[Red Legion]] and [[Loyalists|Loyalist]] forces. They are fragile, but make up for this weakness with an astonishing amount of firepower, possessing the highest firing rates of any enemy unit in ''[[Destiny 2]]''.

==Gameplay==

In-game, Scorpius units are rather weak but compensate for this fragility with an overwhelming rate of fire. When a Guardian approaches, the Scorpius will immediately sound an alarm, and instantaneously target their enemy. If let loose for too long, they can quickly destroy [[Guardian]] shields in seconds. When encountering a Scorpius, Guardians should take cover immediately and ~~prioritize~~ their destruction. The turret's entire head is a precision damage area, and as such should become the Guardian's main target if ~~the~~ Scorpius detects them.
