In order to fire the Cascading Biogenic Pulse, the Scimitar must stop moving - including turning. Then the wings of the Scimitar unfold and split into several smaller vanes. Players engaged in combat against a Scimitar should stay alert for these warning signs and take proper evasive action to escape the firing arc of the impending attack.
