The Flaming Scorpion is a wild animal of Cinder's Cradle. It has a red-orange shell covered in small bumps and two huge pincers with jagged edges. Its thin, segmented tail curls up into a stinger. It lives in the lava wasteland of the lower region, around caves, mines and Drak'Dal camps.
Where to Find the Flaming Scorpion
Flaming Scorpions live only in the lower wasteland of Cinder's Cradle. They roam near cave passages, mines and small Ancient dungeons. Packs gather at the Drak'Dal Camp and around the Springlands Dungeon Entrance and the Nomad Highlands Dungeon Entrance. Their red-orange shell and huge jagged pincers make them easy to recognise. They take extra damage from blunt weapons, ice and Shroud attacks.
Behaviour
The Flaming Scorpion belongs to the wildlife of the region. Its heat-hardened scales are the Ember Carapace that blades skate off and flames cannot catch. It is the only creature that drops them, so hunting it is the way to farm Ember Carapace.
Damage Weaknesses
It is weak to blunt weapons, ice and Shroud damage. It resists piercing, fire and poison.

Notes
Ember Carapace is part of the offering for Flame level 11. The scorpion is the only creature that drops it, so hunting scorpions is the way to farm it. Many armor pieces of Cinder's Cradle need the carapace as well. The carapace turns aside blades and resists fire. The scorpion itself resists arrows, fire and poison. A hammer or an ice spell is the quickest way to bring one down.
