    Scorpia's healer mechanic has been INCORRECT on the OSRS Wiki all these years (corrected at the time of this post)

    Posted: 12 Jul 2021 04:43 AM PDT

    TL;DR: Scorpia's guardians actually spawn on your next attack after she already has less than 100 health, even if you splash.

    Scorpia has been in the game since 2014, for over 7 years now, and you'd think she'd be a solved boss by now. She only has one mechanic - it's common knowledge for those familiar with Scorpia that her guardians spawn and begin to heal her "when she reaches half health." But what does "half health" really mean?

    Until today, if you looked up Scorpia on the OSRS Wiki you would have found the following on the main article:

    When she reaches 50% health, she will spawn two Scorpia's guardians.

    Then there's a Scorpia strategy article where the following was written:

    Once Scorpia reaches half health, she will summon two guardians.

    There's also an article devoted directly to the guardians, which stated:

    Scorpia's guardians appear while fighting Scorpia. Two appear after Scorpia reaches 100 health or lower.

    So of those 3 explanations, two are a bit vague about "half" or "50%" health, and one specifically states that Scorpia's guardians appear once she reaches 100 health. But is that actually the case? As I discovered today, NOPE.

    The condition for which the guardians spawn is as seen in the TL;DR up top: on your next attack after she already has less than 100 health, even if you splash.

    So what does that mean? I'll clarify that with the help of a few examples. In each of these cases, we'll assume Scorpia is starting with 110 health.

    Damage dealt Scorpia's health remaining Guardians spawn?
    11 99 No
    1 98 Yes

    Based on the original description of Scorpia's mechanics found on the Wiki, you would have expected the guardians to appear as soon as you dealt that first 11 damage, bringing her health below 100. But that isn't the case. In a very similar case, the guardians will still appear even if you splash the second hit:

    Damage dealt Scorpia's health remaining Guardians spawn?
    11 99 No
    Splash (0) 99 Yes

    These are two very simple examples, although even here it's clear that the Wiki was incorrect already. Further examples make it even more glaring:

    Damage dealt Scorpia's health remaining Guardians spawn?
    10 100 No
    0 100 No
    Splash (0) 100 No
    5 95 No
    2 93 Yes

    Scorpia can sit at 100 health indefinitely if you keep splashing, and the guardians will never spawn, and you'd be left scratching your head wondering if the game is broken based on the old Wiki info. You might find yourself more confused still if you got Scorpia's health significantly lower before the guardians spawned:

    Damage dealt Scorpia's health remaining Guardians spawn?
    10 100 No
    20 80 No
    30 50 Yes

    In this last case, you'd really be scratching your head wondering why the guardians hadn't appeared two attacks sooner than they did, and once again assume the game was broken. This can be taken to the furthest extent if you happen to be killing Scorpia on task in max or near-max magic gear, where you can hit for 50+ damage:

    Damage dealt Scorpia's health remaining Guardians spawn?
    10 100 No
    52 48 No
    48 0 No

    Congrats, you beat the system and Scorpia's guardians never even spawned. Except you didn't beat any system - you only thought you did, because the Wiki had the wrong information. Not anymore! I hope some of you find this information useful when you next kill Scorpia, since you'll be able to more accurately anticipate the spawning of the healers :)

    P.S. The only unanswered question I have now is what happens when you reduce Scorpia's health to 99 then wait for her health to regen to 100 before attacking again. Do the guardians spawn or not? If anyone is interested in testing this, I'd love to hear your findings!

    What content included on OSRS launch would never pass a poll if proposed today?

    Posted: 12 Jul 2021 05:45 AM PDT

    For example, I think it would be tough to pass Saradomin brews. "Hey guys let's make a new potion. Per inventory slot, it heals triple the amount of the best food in the game."
