Go to the bank and take out a set of melee armor, an Anti-dragon shield, Antipoison, Food, and a Dusty key(if you don't have 70 agility). Head to
Taverley and down into its dungeon.
- If you have 80 agility, you can take the strange floor shortcut straight to the poison spiders. Skip to step 4.
- If you have 70 agility, you should take the shortcut to the blue dragons, run south and then follow the path north, past the black demons and to the poison spiders. Skip to step 4.
- If you have under 70 agility, make your way through the dungeon, past the Magic Axes, Poison Scorpions, Chaos Dwarves, and Lesser Demon until you come to a closed gate. Use the Dusty key to unlock the gate and enter the chamber with the Blue Dragons. Proceed passed the Blue Dragons and Black Demons until you come to an area with Poison Spiders.

Leave the dungeon and report back to Seer. His clue on the location of the second scorpion goes as follows "has been spirited away by a brute of a man. He runs a shop in a village two canoe trips from Lumbridge".
This is Peksa, the owner of the helmet shop at the Barbarian Village.
-
Head to Barbarian Village and speak with Peksa at his helmet shop. He will confess that he left it as a "surprise gift" to his brother at the Barbarian Outpost.
