Leveling the Artifact:

Strategy:

The mob is the giant scorpion Terkari. Purple with 10 yellow/oj friends. 
- Xorn and Vyrian

Picture of Terkari battle   

He's been seen at 1930, 19000 Stygian Delta and 39.6k, 22.9k in Stygian Delta, and a couple other places.

There's at least 4 places he can spawn, 3 of which I have seen personally.
He's seems to prefer to be in rocky areas, and usually has yellow con scorpions followers or minions or something around. Also all the spawns seem to have Small Scarabs, which con grey to a 50.
1st place: 1930, 19000 Stygia, just west of one setian fort, and east of a setian laborer camp.
2nd place and 3rd place: one is westof inarus, the other is SSW. Both are rock formations with scorpions around them.
4th place is supposedly the scorp pit just north of stygia haven, before you get to the river. I haven't seen him there yet.
This ring is seeming to be a very rare drop, I've killed tekari 5+ times now, as have several guildies, never seen the ring.  Dec 21

Terkari (Scorpion Tail Ring encounter) has been done with a lvl50 light ment and a lvl45 nurture druid bot.
Took 2 attempts, charmed a level 52 setian because it was convenient and buffed it up, pulled terkari, killed scorpion followers. 2 mobs aggrod from behind and killed me. /released and ran back, charmed another lvl52 setian, buffed it up and had it tank terkari, no adds, took about 5 minutes to kill, druid did not receive credit, ring did not drop.  Mar 24 2004

Terkari is the named that drops the scorpion tail ring...seen him in the same place I saw Colossal (just north of the Haven) and then across the river from there too...not too bad a fight...beat him with reaver/pally/buffbot without much problem.
Cold attacks stop him from PBAE poisoning.

Tips:

Respawn time seems to be around two real life days.

Find Terkari at around 28000, 16000 in Stygian Delta.
Thats close to Inarus, the named that give the mau faction quest.  Dec 18

i did  my scorpion tail's  ring once  with a  pally a cleric and myself  50 ice  wizard and  that was easy since we had  BOF up.  Dec 6

Scorpion's Tail Ring: Most likely drops off a giant scorpion with 10-15 yellow scorpions trailing it. The name of the mob is Takemi (sp?) and it wanders around in some rocks north of the river in stygia, near the easternmost setian walled encampment. The adds are a pain, but the mob itself isn't that hard when the adds are down. The artifact doesn't always drop, have to kill him a few times from what I hear.

I had to kill this guy 6 times before I got the ring. I have since killed it 3 other times with other guildies and out of 9 times we have 2 rings.    Nov 26
