The Scarab King is one of the most difficult bosses in RAID: Shadow Legends' Doom Tower, infamous for overwhelming players who come unprepared. His devastating counterattacks, ability to steal debuffs, and powerful damage reduction can turn the battle into a nightmare without the right team composition. Nevertheless, mid-game and free-to-play players can successfully defeat him by following an effective strategy tailored for this RPG.
Success in this encounter relies on consistently shielding your team, controlling the boss's turn meter, and gradually depleting his maximum health. Without these core tactics, your champions will fail to inflict enough damage before being crushed. This guide provides optimal team compositions, recommended gear setups, and alternate approaches to make your fight as manageable as possible. Have questions about guilds, gameplay, or our product?

Understanding the Scarab King’s Mechanics
Before exploring the best team setup, it's important to grasp exactly why the Scarab King poses such a threat. His skills are built around punishing champions without active shields and stripping away your buffs:
Poison Damage Strategy
An alternative to using the Destroy set is focusing on Poison damage. Champions like Bad-el-Kazar, Urost the Soulcage, and Aox the Rememberer excel in this role. The main drawback of this method is that battles generally take longer compared to the Destroy set approach.
Solo Champions for Scarab King
Certain champions, with the correct gear, are capable of soloing the Scarab King. Top candidates include:
Vergis (Shield + Heal)Vrask (Healing on attack)Scyl of the Drakes (Passive healing)
To survive the battle's duration, these champions require gear such as a Regeneration Set or Immortal Set.
Defeating the Scarab King in RAID: Shadow Legends isn't simply a matter of high damage—it's a test of battlefield control. Consistently maintaining shields, managing his turn meter, and steadily reducing his maximum health are the keys to victory. Even without elite champions, accessible heroes like Metalshaper, Armiger, and Elfguard can effectively get the job done.
