Scarab King Raid Guide: Top Teams and Tactics

The Scarab King stands as one of the most challenging bosses in RAID: Shadow Legends’ Doom Tower, notorious for punishing teams that lack proper preparation. His deadly mix of counterattacks, debuff stealing, and damage reduction makes this fight a true test of strategy and team composition. However, even mid-tier or free-to-play players can defeat him with the right approach.

Success against the Scarab King hinges on three core mechanics: keeping shields active on your champions, managing the boss’s turn meter, and consistently reducing his maximum HP. Without these elements, your team will likely crumble before dealing enough damage to finish the fight. This guide outlines the best strategies, recommended team builds, and alternative options to help you conquer this formidable foe.

Understanding the Scarab King’s Mechanics

Before diving into team compositions, it's essential to understand what makes the Scarab King such a difficult opponent. His abilities are designed to punish unprotected champions and strip away your hard-earned buffs:

Poison Damage Strategy

An effective alternative to the Destroy Set is using Poison-based damage. Champions like Bad-el-Kazar, Urost the Soulcage, and Aox the Rememberer excel at stacking poison effects. While this method deals consistent damage over time, it tends to be slower than the more aggressive Destroy Set approach.

Solo Champions for Beating the Scarab King

Certain champions are capable of soloing the Scarab King when properly geared:

• Vergis – Provides self-shields and healing
• Vrask – Gains healing upon attacking
• Scyl of the Drakes – Benefits from passive healing

These champions perform best with a Regeneration Set or Immortal Set to ensure survivability throughout the battle.

Defeating the Scarab King in RAID: Shadow Legends isn't about brute force—it's about control. Keeping your team shielded, slowing the boss’s turn meter, and gradually lowering his max HP are the keys to victory. Even without top-tier legendaries, budget-friendly champions like Metalshaper, Armiger, and Elfguard can get the job done with the right setup.
