Over powdered scorpions

the scorpions in the desert are too OP. They can spot the player from twice the distance of other predators, there are always three of them and they take forever to kill, and they can kill you in two hits, one if you're not buffed. It's ridiculous! They're the bears of the desert except you can't kite them through the water because they swim faster than you do. Unless you see them coming a mile off and have enough stamina to jump on a rock (they can climb so this isn't always helpful) and enough arrows to shoot them multiple times...well you're dead.
