Okay, you've got some good points going on here, but let me put in my two cents. Getting close enough to the Scorpion to actually board it takes a fair bit of skill (or the driver must be lacking in it), because any normal player can blow you to smithereens before you are anywhere near enough to board it.
And sure, rockets home in, but the Scorpion can simply guard the RL and demolish anything that comes its way. Other vehicles don't stand a chance against it, with the possible exception of a very well-piloted Banshee.
Keep in mind that I have only experienced the ruthlessness of a Scorpion on Coagulation; it is quite possible that the placement of weapons in other maps make it much more vulnerable.
Personally, I wouldn't mind it if the Scorpion's shields were just slightly powered down for H2PC so that bullets of any kind would do at least a little something against it.
