Description

A monstrously large scorpion, usually found in the forests or in caves. They can be seen easily thanks to their high-profile tails.

  • Aggressive against everyone.
  • Appear to be stronger than a bear and Huge spider.
  • Appear to have good armour.
  • Fast attack speed.
  • Does stinging, clawing and biting damage.
  • Can sting 10dmg per hit on unarmoured bodyparts.
  • Moves slowly, can be outrun fairly easily even on grass.
  • Can't be tamed
  • Cannot swim
  • Butchering products include meat and cochineal
  • Spawns from a scorpion stone.

Notes

For anyone wondering how strong these creatures are, I tried attacking one with 16.34FS, full 50ql chain armour and dual 40ql longswords with 55/48Flaming Aura enchated on them. Just for reference, I can easily kill adolescent huge spiders and brown bears without going below 50% health.

I started attacking the scorpion, focused shortly into the fight, and died leaving it on bleeding(I didn't see the scorpion focus). I returned, gathered my stuff(it wasn't starving, and my copse was butchered, which would suggest they butcher corpses near them), tried attacking it again(this time it had a 20dmg medium wound), I killed it but I only had 50% health. I'd suggest to get 30+ FS with at least 30ql gear before trying to kill one.
