Walkthrough
This mission can actually be finished before you even head to Bose and get the mission from the request board at the local Guild. The King Scorpion and his Queen Scorpion harem is found on the eastern map of the East Bose Highway, just south of the Nibel Valley intersection. I would highly recommend to save before this fight, and, if possible, power up your S-Break to max.
The King himself is actually easy to defeat, his defense is high, but easily wiped out with a few Orbal attacks, but, just to be on the safe side, and due to his annoying poison, it is best to take him out first with a swift S-Break. The Queens are far more annoying. They are highly armoured, resistant to most Orbal Arts, and their attacks will do serious damage, while paralyzing you. If you have S-Breaks, use them. Otherwise, you will need to use Wind Attacks and heal often. For this battle, I recommend having at least two characters equipped with Wind Orbments and a Water Orbment equipped on the third person.
On Hard and Nightmare: These creatures are harder to kill then the King Scorpion and frequently in larger groups. Equip Schera with enough Wind Quartz to cast Aerial, equip Estelle with Water arts to heal the party, and have Joshua using time quartz. Joshua should speed up Estelle, then Schera so, they can use their Arts as frequently as possible.
Once they are defeated, head to the Bose Bracer Guild for your reward.
