Contaminated Scorpion locations in AION 2: all 46 spawn points

Level36
RankNormal
Attacks on sightYes

The Contaminated Scorpion is a level 36 Normal-rank creature in the open world of AION 2, and it attacks on sight, so expect it to come at you as soon as you get close. On the Elyos side it lives in Verteron, where all 46 of its marked spots sit inside the Contaminated Sanctum. With every one of them packed into that single area, the Sanctum is the only place you need to go when hunting them.

Contaminated Sanctum	—	46

The nearest teleport statue is Hill of Purification, about 120 m from the Contaminated Sanctum, a short walk to the first scorpions. Each kill guarantees Soul: Scorpion (Bound), with Spiritstone dropping at 3.9% and Refining Stone at 0.65%. Pieces of the Riverside set drop at 0.27% or lower, while Expert's Refining Stone (0.16%) and Comet Gloves (0.08%) are the Rare finds. Several quests also send you here: the Episode quest Perilous Purification needs 6 kills, Clearing Contaminants I and II ask for 20 and 25, and the repeatable Duty Festival Preparations: Contaminated Sanctum calls for 20.
