This rare spawns near the river in Durotar. He stands out among the other scorpids because of his blue and black color.

Low level horde hunters sometimes camp him because he is one of the first rare tameable beasts and has such an unique skin, but he actually has no special stats.

i found him by accident, tammed him as my tanking pet :-)

according to http://www.blizzardguides.com/wow_hunter_pet_guide.html
"Death Flayer, a scorpid in Durotar, has a fast 1.6 attack speed"

Commento di 81046

He does have a attack speed of 1.6, if you want a easy way of getting him even at low lvl, i got him at lvl 11. Use the "Really Sticky Glue" that u get from the quest in Sin'jin. That holds him down for 10 seconds. Then the distance so hell only be hitting u for about 6 -8 seconds. A verry nice looking pet.

Commento di Thottbot

This Scorpid makes a decent Hunter's pet too. In addition to looking cool (black with red dots), his attack speed is reduced to 1.6s. Other stats (when tamed at 11):
DPS: 7.7
Damage Reduction: 31%
HP: 222
Approach Speed: Normal (115%)

Commento di Thottbot

Im a level 31 hunter but I just had to get this guy, he looks so cool. I found him straight away after running from Crossroads to look for it :D I was quite happy! When I tamed him he has 2 attacks, Claw2 and a poison which stacks (he uses it quite alot and it can stack about 5 times on the same target which will be nice against rogues in pvp)

He has 1.6 attack speed which is good and has nice armour. He looks great (black with red dots and big claws) also another thing to note is when he attacks sometimes he makes a 'roaring' noise like a lion, it actually sounds pretty cool! but I'm not sure if its a bug or not (I hope its not cause it sounds amazing hehe)

Great story here. Got to lvl 10 started asking people what a good pet was. Heard there was a rare spawn scorpion out by the gridge leading to the barrens. Ran out and started stalking find him and got killed. I was lvl 10 and found out i couldnt tame him. (hes 11) Quickly leveled and got him on the third or fourth try. Looks awesome. Everyone is right hes south of the bridge to the barrens. Proud to say that Death Flayer is my first pet.

Commento di Thottbot

Tamed him at 11. I disabled the auto-cast on Claw so that his poison can stack up real fast. Very effective so far, good tank, and I haven't even taught him Growl yet (not sure if I can)

From the sound of it, I got pretty lucky... found him in 15 minutes and tamed him first try. Great pet.

Commento di Thottbot

Went to the location mentioned above and cleared the area of scorpids for about 30 mins. Death Flayer appeared about 12 noon Central Time.

Forgot to take his stats right away, but as of 12th lvl they are:

Str: 33 Att: 60
Agi: 28 Pow: 46
Sta: 38 Dmg: 14-18
Int: 23 Def: 60
Spi: 25 Amr: 820

(with no further training)

Definately a badarse bug.

Commento di Thottbot

I had tamed Death Flayer when I was LVL 11, and needless to say he nearly killed me, but thanks to a few missed shots on his part I was able to get him. I didn't know he even existed at first, but I ran into him on my way to the bridge and thought "That's strange, I've never seen that before", but I killed him :(. I then looked him up in my Atlas and realized he was a rare spawn, so I spent the next two hours killing everything in the area (I gained at least 3 LVLs) so when he did spawn it wasn't a problem taming him. I still have him now at LVL 26 and he's doing great. Not to mention he runs up walls too :-D

He was walking from the North to the South.

All animals now have the same intercept speed

Attack speed is still variable and this one is the fastest scorp.

This is beneficial against casters. Plus he is cool looking.

Commento di Thottbot

This guy is pretty difficult to catch if your close to his lvl. He has a 1.6 attack speed which is decently fast, almost as fast as a cat. Plus the poison and claw attacks are good support attacks. VERY good pet for the level.

Commento di Thottbot

Found him at 37,50.

Commento di Thottbot

But I've just died twice trying to tame this guy. Both times the taming bar COMPLETED, but he wasn't tamed and he killed me.

I was level 12, he was level 11.

Signed,
Frustrated and Confused

Commento di Thottbot

i saw Death Flayer when i was ten so i decided to grind around it and level to train it, so i did. when i finally leveled i looked around for it, no where in sight. its been roughly 2-3 hours later. still no spawn.

gonna stay for a little while longer though and hope it spawns.

Commento di Thottbot

Unfortunately, with the latest patches, the single advantage this baby has over the much easier to find Corrupted Scorpid, his attack speed, was normalized. In other words, the only reason to get him, as opposed to any other scorp, is pure looks. Granted, he does look cool, but that's the only difference. Of course, the corrupted one looks identical, and is a heck of a lot easier to get.

Commento di Thottbot

ATTENTION:if you are a level 11 and up hunter passing through durotar, just check in at the bridge between durotar and the barrens. He is a somewhat rare spawn, but he is a very good tanking pet. His scorpid poison stacks up to... what is it... three or five times, so turn off claw and just stack on DOTs. this is very good for aggro/damage. So, yeah, if your a lowbie horde hunter, check out death flayer.

Commento di Thottbot

Death flayer has the following skills: Claw (lvl 2) scorpid poison (lvl 1)

Corrupted scorpid skills: scorpid poison (lvl1)

Granted you can teach your corrupted scorpid 2nd level claw also but at say level 11, if you're deciding to go for scorpid pet this is the one to go - tame, wham! he got the best beast skills possible for this type of creature at this level.

Heading out to look for Death Flayer, updating coords once found it

Found it 38,50 - so the coordinates provided so far are quite accurate

Commento di Thottbot

Death Flayer is still a decent pet, hunters.

Easiest way to find him is to run down the path west from Razor Hill, and once you hit the water, head south.

Make a macro: /target death flayer

Then run around in the area from the road to the water, and down to the mountain-area just south of the road.

I found him around 37.47, but he wanders around.

Drops aren't great at all--I got Dry Scorpid Eye and Gypsy Cloak.

Hes a great pet for interupting casters with his increased attack speed. Decent in pvp

Commento di Thottbot

found him and tamed him in about 2 min

Commento di Thottbot

Caught him tonight, at about 10:45 CST.

One thing of note is that his attack speed has indeed been nerfed down to 2.0.

Commento di Thottbot

it took about 2 hours until he spawned when he did i got him in 3 trys, the third time i used aspect of monkey to improve my chances to dodge, he missed twice in a row which by now i knew it was in the bag, he has pretty good stats, im guna keep him for awhile

Commento di Thottbot

i found him he was lev 11 i was 10 so i killed things i got a compact shotgun,and a nice cape once i made 11 i tamed him hes a realy nice pet:):)

Commento di Thottbot

i tamed him and he is great at o/t ing cause he has like 2000 armor at level 15

hes like a rogue but he has rage and his claw move crits ALOT.

Commento di Thottbot

LOL i was training this guy to be my hunter pet and, of course, he poisons me but right when i finished training him a raptor aggroed and the scorpion ataked and got aggro off of me put i still died from the poison :S

Commento di Thottbot

I got DF at level 12 and have takin him with me all the way to 70.... If you turn off claw the sting stacks X5. At level 70 he has 14K in armor! I love this guy for PVP or PVE. I think hes good at it all. I have even used him to off tank in a raid. Lets see a cat do that!

Commento di Thottbot

This is pure and simple a Rare Pet Designed to give Horde Players an Elite Pet early on. Back in the day before Pet Normalization his base Attack Speed was 1.6. There is no Alliance Elite anywhere near this pet. Killing him and expecting Uber Loot just means your a Noob. Advantage of this pet that some overlook is he's got a smaller than normal targeting radius. He can be hidden in just about anything. Cobra Reflexes is a good thing to use on him. get those Poison stacks up to 5 ASAP.

Commento di Thottbot

The only problem with ANY pet is the amount of abilities you have automatically casting. They cost focus and having 3 or four abilities drains your "focus". In order to hold aggro, he needs to have focus to cast growl. So make sure that your pet has enough focus to growl the enemy off you. Just keep this in mind when learning abilities

Commento di Thottbot

i tamed him a while back wen i was first looking for pets and i still hav him. Hes a great catch and with his claw and poison he will do alot more dammage then wut u think. He is also great at pulling because he takes a lot of the damage. had very good armor also

Commento di Thottbot

I found him after about 2.5 hours of waiting, and his spawn point is 36, 50.

Commento di Thottbot

After I found this guy on thottbot, I went to go get him and found him right where everyone said and it took me 1min to find him. For Hunters it is very simple. TRACK BEASTS! he's an awesome pet.

Commento di Thottbot

Thx for all info.... Tamed this beautiful TANK at 11th (ya i thought i couldnt either...) after clearing area of mobs on a sunny morning. Makes a better Tank than the Needler rare white bat i have ... both look so cool... being a Hunter is the best 'cause u have the ability to HUNT Down monsters of fame & make them YOURS.... bahahaha FOR THE HORDE!

Commento di Thottbot

is he rare because i got him today for my orc hunter named xguard on the realm ravencrest

Commento di Thottbot

i have reason to beleeve that death flayer is now "corrupt scorpion"
they look awfully the same
i'm about to tame it. i'll update

Commento di Thottbot

no, corrupt scorpid has the same model (same look) but this guy is definitely Death Flayer. Accept no substitue. Have they really nerfed the attack speed? I have him (at 63) and with talents etc the spead is 1.38. He's done me proud since level 11, and meat is surprisingly easy to come across when you are a leatherworking hunter. As for that scorpid poison - it's the bane of casters in PvP, blink all you want but when you've got 5 lots of nature damage coming your way (and a 1.6 attack speed) your concentration is elsewhere. I especially enjoyed getting my own back on the warlocks........

Commento di Thottbot

just caught him at lvl 11, i was grinding on other scorpids for about 10 mins 2 get him and when i got him.... here r his stats compared to a corrupted scorpid (not elite)

lvl 11 death flayer:
str/agi/sta/int/spi
32/20/34/21/23
attack speed/damage/dps/armor
2.00/16-20/9.0/538(without my armor)(33.75%)

lvl 11 corrupted scorpid:
str/agi/sta/int/spi
32/20/34/21/23
attack speed/damage/dps/armor
2.00/16-20/9.0/538

(NOTE 1: both pets were happy (125% damage)
(NOTE 2: both pets look identical)
(NOTE 3: both pets were under same conditions when stats were tested)

:O they r exactly the same o.O then wats the point of having a special elite?

Commento di Thottbot

So i heard that scorpids are best mm pets for pvp, cats are best bm pets. However, scorpids all around the highest rated pvp pets, so i decided i wanted to make the most op class in the game with the best pvp pet.

i made a night elf hunter, and went to durotar to get a corrupted scopid, found 1, but i was level 10 and it was 11...so i kept looking and i stumble upon death flayer. i read that he was hella rare and stuff so i was stoked, but he was 11, so i killed some mobs, leveled and went for him...he killed me -.-

i remembered that i did a spider kabob quest, and my friend gave me a health pot that gives 27 health for an hour...extra 47 health really helped because i have no stam gear at this level. Kinda stoked that i got one of the rarest pets in the game especially for allies on pvp servers like me. this is win :)

Commento di Thottbot

I've read a lotta posts and haven't seen the Armored Scorpid mentioned. It was the third of the three pets in the taming quest, and I liked it right away, so I kept it. Had to run to Orgrimmar to learn the feed pet skill, I thought he might split on the way- as I couldn't feed him but he stayed, and then had no problem as I had lots of food,and fed him asap. He's gained 5 levels the past couple days. He makes a wierd screeching noise sometimes during attack, which I thought was poison, but it seems to hit real hard then and seems like a finishing move, cuz the mobs are usually dead after that ...lol
I was reading here and at Petopia, and now want to get Death Flayer (black scorpid- w/skills already).The one I have now is like a flourescent green colour, btw, which is kind of cool. I'd like to get Humar and the elite lvl 19 coilfang in WC also as additional pets (and maybe a corrupted boar).The only lowbie ravagers seem to be in Allie territory, so I probably wont see one of those until after 58. Which I'll be workin on since my lock finally hit 70 and is mostly in bgs now to save up honor for some descent gear. Happy hunting all!

Commento di Allakhazam

Yes! Yes! Yes!

I'm a lvl 21 NE hunter. After sitting in Durotar for over an hour I finally saw him. Don't know if I should change his name so people will actually know who he is. I hope he's as good as the stats say he is. Can't wait to show him off :)

Commento di Allakhazam

I was only 48 points into lvl 11 when I tamed this guy. Walked up and there he was, waiting to be mine! To my surprise, I died one time trying to tame him. When he hits you with that "Scorpid Poison" it's all over from there, your life drains down quick! Might want to hit him with concussive shot at least once then start taming.
I used him to do the Harpy quest in Durotar and I already love him! Hunters that use Serpent Sting shot along with Flayer using his Poison really kills the target QUICK! Think I'll keep him for a very long time :)

Good luck in taming :)

Commento di Allakhazam

That was probably him, any pet reverts to its basic name after being tamed (nightsabres are called cats after they are tamed... etc).

Edit: Just noticed you said after it got going... I thought you meant after it was done...

Commento di Allakhazam

My fiance had found this guy purely by chance in that area once, and tamed him, kept saying what a great pet he was. I was using a green silithid from south barrens at the time, and absolutely loved using scorps. My scorp once tanked for our entire group in a Wailing Caverns run (the best other tank we had was a shaman :P), and everyone was highly impressed. So when I started my new hunter, I wanted to find Death Flayer, since he's pretty much the best scorp, with that 1.6 attack speed.

The two of us just went over to the southfury river and kept running north and south along the river south of the path. We kept killing the yellow scorpids, and killed the black corrupted scorp whenever it appeared. I think Death Flayer might be a rare spawn of that corrupted scorp, because after maybe an hour we found him in the same spot that one usually appeared. I tamed him, and had my new best friend. He even came with Claw 2, an added bonus for a low level hunter.

I <3 Death Flayer.

i was looking for info on vanom sac when i found this neat one, so i went to the mentioned place and find it/tamed it. will look good beside my beloved Humar. ;)

Clear out the other aggro mobs, eat yer cactus apple, make sure you have at least 300 armor and a lvl 11 hunter can just do him first time without dying.

When we had both just turned lvl 13 and we were on our way back to XRs having got our 4 Z Hooves when we were challenged by a lvl 15 Lock running an imp... Crawley took out the imp while I was running around demented with the fear spells and then she took out the Lock. I had managed to get a few poisoned arrows off and a melee hit with me 2H lvl 11 axe. I like my Death Flayer.

Commento di Allakhazam

I noticed, same as one of the other posts on here, that he spawns every 9 to 12 corrupted black scorpions, and I also noticed is that there is ONLY 1 black scorpion at a time, so keep killing them until the rare one spawns :) - Only took me a few hours to work this out :( - but hey the little beast is well worth it :)

Commento di Allakhazam

Same story, was just south east of the bridge to Barrens, on the Dur side.
Killed probably 4 Corrupt Scorp spawns over an hour or so. The fifth a Corrupt spawned, but so did DF not too far away to the south.

Took me 3 goes at taming. Got him eventually though.

Commento di Allakhazam

I got this guy in a bout 10seconds just ran over spotted him and almost died taming him, but man was it worth it this thing kicks ass

Commento di Allakhazam

I Lucked out, Ide been toying with my lil hunter for awhlie and got him to 10th ad trained and went to go get this pet after reading how cool he is, I expected to camp forever walked in and he was looping, Unfortunetly I found out you cant tame above you, But I was close to level so I killed some things, leveled and I was able to get him at lvl 11. So far so good, hes been alot of fun, granted hes my only pet tried so I couldnt say hes owns all but still, Im slaughtering stuff with ease. Mine came with Claw and Poison so was a good pickup.

Commento di Allakhazam

I tamed him with my lv.11 Dwarf Hunter. Honest to god, I was reading these forums trying to figure out exactly where he was located and how long of a respawn time he had. After a few minutes I brought World of Warcraft back up and there he was, he walked right past me. So I tamed him :D

Commento di Allakhazam

Ugh, stupid speed nerf.... Moving on!

I just tamed him on my then Lv10 Troll Hunter. I spent a lot of time looking in the wrong place, but he was really easy to find once I knew where to look. Anyway, upon finding him I abandoned my first pet, another scorpid that I had been training, and tapped the Tame Beast spell... but Death Flayer was Lv11, so I tamed a croc, and grinded to 11 in the area, hoping no one would kill him. At Lv11, I found him again, abandoned croc, and repeated the process. Cause he was a rare, it was close, but it looked like I would tame him. Then... Currupted Raptor attacks, I die, and Death Flayer disappears... :(

Buuut... when I revived, I thought there was a chance... I used Call Pet... and, lo and behold, there was Death Flayer! I managed to tame him right before I died, but didn't see it cause of lag! Great pet, great tank.... I love my Scorpy. :P

Commento di Allakhazam

I ran out here this morning with a croc, expecting to spend hours killing off Razormaws & Scorpids and gathering Piggie meat to keep the croc happy.

After killing maybe 3 mobs, the Flayer attacked!

I ran like a Night Elf, spamming Follow Me and Passive to keep the croc off the Flayer. After getting out of aggro range, I abandoned the croc and approached the Flayer, taming whip in hand. GOT HIM!

I luv my Scorpy :)

Commento di Allakhazam

anyone have the stats for this guy?

Commento di Allakhazam

Just last night I spent a few hours (between questing) to tame Death Flayer. When I finally saw it, there was also a Corrupted scorpid around. DF seemed to spawn nearer to the northern end of the marked territory but will probably patrol through that whole area, just as those corrupted scorpids do. So keep looking, it will come sooner or later.

Commento di Allakhazam

Hi everyone, bad news. I got death flayer today at 6:38am GMT on the Proudmore server and he now has the 2.0 attack speed. The same as the corrupted scorpid. I'm pissed off

Commento di Allakhazam

I went looking for Death Flayer, wandering around the indicated spawning area for hours slaughtering every scorpid I saw. No DF spawn.

Just as I was about to give it up, a black scorpid with orange spots spawned almost right on top of me, so I T'd him and hit Tame.

Once it got going I looked at the little guys name to see Corrupted Armored Scorpid, not Death Flayer...woops.

Ah well. I kept him (Pinchy), the CAS is great for a solo hunter, as he can withstand an obscene amount of damage and holds aggro very well. Also his Happiness seems to rise faster and stay happier than some of the other pets Ive had.

Commento di Allakhazam

I just tamed this guy as a 12 hunter, had to kill Venomtail scorpids around there for almost an hour and a half, but he's worth it, he kicks serious ass, and doesn't require near as much food as my pet before him (a wolf), he's a really good tank too.

Commento di Allakhazam

I tamed him at level 11 (took me 4 tries to get him though; and he seems to have a pretty massive circle he wanders in) and still have him at Level 16. I compared him with Echeyache and I think I'm going to stick with Death Flayer.

At level 16 with full happiness he's doing 10.8 dps (11-13 a hit, 26-27 crits) and can hold aggro better than I could ask for. He's also just as quick as Ech so you aren't sacrificing much in the run-speed department.

Commento di Allakhazam

I got this little cutie at level 11 as a Dwarf...quite a walk to get to him but he's the pet I had decided I wanted. Was fortunately right there, killed me once, but I got him. I thought the skin was unique until around level 35 I saw the same skin on scorpids in Shimmering Flats...and then saw some in Uldaman, and now they're just all over the place. I have tried other pets but I can't stand going without him! He clicks when he walks, if you've never had a scorpid, and makes a little roar type sound when you send him after a mob. Not to mention that now, at level 43, Bestial Fury makes his claws as least as big as me and verging on the size of a human girl.

Now that's just AWESOME.

As far as capability goes, scorpid poison isn't THAT great but it's a lot of fun to have. He makes a good tank but I believe he is considered low DPS. That's ok, my little Kurgan will beat you up any iday of the week.

Commento di Allakhazam

Spent a 30 minutes running around at the co-ords where he was supposed to spawn. "Target acquired!" said the macro, and I dismissed my Corrupted Venomtail Scorpid. First attempt failed, but I drank a potion and tried again. When I got him I yelled out loud =D

This little guy is staying w/ me for a while I think. I´m getting all warm writing about it... is this normal?

just got tamed this guy today. spent about 30 mins this morning trying find him and i logged on tonight and there he was! took me 2 tries to tame him. im a lvl 12 hunter and death slayer was lvl 11. havent gotten to use him much yet but so far i love it! good armor. makes for a good tank.

Commento di Allakhazam

just got him, at lvl 60... so i gotta train a lvl 11 alll the way up... fun

Commento di Allakhazam

I was looking for another named scorpid to thame in thousand needles when I noticed one of the posts about it mention the 1.60 speed of this ones attack. Checking it myself I confirmed the speed is quicker then the 2.00 that others have but getting it the same lvl as another and making both happy they both still show the same DPS(8.1 at lvl 11). I know faster attack might caust trouble for casters getting the slight interruption but it also messes them over with stuff like thorns aura damaging them each time they attack. I will try to use him to see if I like it better then my other but I wanted to warn others that might be reading too much into the speed and not DPS.

Commento di Allakhazam

I was over in Durotar for about 3hrs, never had him pop. I saw a Corrupted Scorpid like 7 times, so I tamed him instead.

Any way to get Death Flayer to spawn?

Commento di Allakhazam

Tamed him with my lvl 11 elf hunter. It was a huge headache but well worth it. Just some advice. If you go for him at lvl 11 bring a protection scroll with you. I used it and I died right after I tamed him. Without I would have dropped dead before i had him.

Btw I found him right by the road on the map.

Commento di Allakhazam

imo this guy sucks, he always dies and isnt that great of a tank, i dont even know why i spent like 6 hours campiong him wehn i was that lvl, complete waste of time.

Commento di Allakhazam

Is the Death Flayer's attack speed still 1.4?The cats got jacked & are all 2.0 now.

Commento di Allakhazam

was on my hunter - and i had the 2 rare spawns there pop up on my ass - corrupted mottled boar and him - tamed the boar until i learned charge off him then dismissed and got deathflayer <3

Commento di Allakhazam

I just got him on my lvl 12 Troll Hunter and he's been awesome so far.
I got lucky and found him about five minutes after getting there.
I usually can't stand Scorpids but he is so badass, I"m sticking with him for awhile.

Commento di Allakhazam

any1 know how quick it takes for dis bihotch 2 spawn?

THORADUS

Commento di Allakhazam

LOL! so yeah i found this bad boy on my Hunter lvl 11 and tried to tame him, i used concussive shot to slow himn down so he couldnt do as much damage too me but in the proscess pulled another scorp and then got attacked from behind by a stupid raptor... not a good first shot haha

so i rezzed and tried the same method again, it worked this time, but I BARELY lived, so for you that are wanting to catch him RIGHT AWAY all you need is 246 stam 236 armor and 49 defence at the very least

Commento di Allakhazam

I got one too, ahahah, he rocks rocks

Commento di Allakhazam

OK... this is part 1 of a 2 part post. I have been camping this area for the past 4 hours. A few items of note. There is generally also 1 red and black scorpid walking around that looks like detha vlayer. I believe that 1 of the spawn points is located just south of the Razorname Grouds under the big tree. 5 times I have seen the corrupted scorpid spawn there which looks like the flayer. After I kill him I run around looking for another but there isnt any more. All the rest are standard. Part 2 will be when and if they guy finally pops.

Part 2... well either I was getting a drink or this is not the spawn point. I gave up and started running towards barren and there he was just West of where I was standing. Good luck to all.

I just ran where the map shows his location, made macro to target him. Took me 5 min to locate it. I am now lvl27, hope he lvls fast, can't wait :)

Commento di Allakhazam

So what is the spawn rate for this guy? I have been waiting here for 3 hours now and I still haven't seen him...

EDIT: Nevermind, I found him after about 4 hours.

Commento di Allakhazam

Its much easier to tame him when using the "Really Sticky Glue", which you get as a reward from the quest "A Solvent Spirit". You get it in senjin village.
I tamed him easily with my 11 hunter while using the glue.

Ive now used him for a while. at lvl 17 he has over 1200 armor :D(with thick hide)

The scorpid posion is also very usefull when fighting against strong monters that take some time to kill.

BTW, i dont think any pet has under 2.0 attack speed anymore.(without skills and talents)

Commento di Allakhazam

So... I go there to find him... get aggro'd by a Raptor, killing the Raptor, DF aggros me and kills me. Sweet! I get back there, and some Hunter has a pet named Scorpid that's black and orange... DAMN!

Commento di Allakhazam

I got him for 10-19 BGs, he was excellent, the 1.6AS slows casters while his Rank 3 poison drains them along with serpent sting, great combo. After lvl 24 stabled him and brought out my Snow leopard again. He is a versatile pet, fast AS for a pet thats supposed to be medium armor and low damage (tank stats) i recommend this pet for BM spec'd hunters, the poison alone and the attack speed helps alot and makes up for lack of overall melee skill. BTW scorpid poison stacks the same as sunder, think about it for boss battles.

I got this guy on my Draenai hunter when i was lvl 24. He is awesome. I originally had Sarkoth from the orc starting area but Deathflayer is by far just as awesome. He has excellent defense and if you train him right he beats cats. Scorpids FTW

Commento di Allakhazam

got him for my level 26 hunter, he is now 17 and a while to catch up to me as well, but he holds his own even attacking much higher level mobs. nice tanking pet with very cool looks.

Commento di Allakhazam

Tamed him this morning (lvl 11)very easy took me down about 1/2 health. Hes easy to find he wanders in a triangle pattern like the map shows. He did disappear when I saw him and was killing mobs around him but popped not long after that.
Ive used him for 1 lvl now and hes been great. Real nice tank pet. Hes my first will keep him for the long haul.
Havent named him yet, still thinking of one. :)

For poison do you have to spend talent points for it? Or is it automatically used?

Commento di Allakhazam

I saw this guy on my Orc Warrior Kagnato but when I saw him I was busy being eaten by Raptors. When I finished with them I went back to get him but I couldnt find him.

Commento di Allakhazam

I've been camping Death Flayer for a while, and I found out an interesting fact. The corrupted scorpids spawn every 9-12 minutes, and every 13th spawn is Death Flayer. So if someone kills it, you can time its arrival by the scorpid respawns (make sure to kill when the corrupted spawn, so its easier to track). it was a lot more helpful than just wandering around the area.

Commento di Allakhazam

Me and another character teamed last night and I found the Death Flayer (lvl 11) first, so I tamed it, and he found a corrupt scorpion (lvl 11) and tamed it.

Looking at the properties of each, both have the same attributes, so regardless of which you get, they are equeally bad azz for lvl 11, and no one will know the difference as the name changes when it's tamed, all anyone will see is the crazy Red spots all over it's shell.

Just tamed him with level 11 Orc Hunter.

His stats are as follows at level 11 with no training and Happy:
Diet: Meat (Scorpid Suprise counts btw :) )
Strength: 32
Agility: 27
Stamina: 34
Intellect: 22
Spirit: 24
Health: 222
Armor: 599
Defense: 55
Attack: 55
Power: 44
Damage: 11-15

He and another Corrupted were wandering around Southfury.

I should have tried to tame the other corrupted first to determine if he had better stats.

But he was a deffinite improvement to my level 11 tiger. He has easily twice the armor without any training and more hitpoints. He seems to attack faster as well which validates the 1.6 attack speed others have mentioned.

Tips for taming him. Kill every aggro around the area before trying to tame him.
I would have tamed him first try but another scorpid jumped me halfway through taming. At 11 with really good eq for my level he took me down 1/2 to 2/3 health before I got him.

I just tamed this little guy (at 3:20am server time on Runetotem)with my lvl 18 orc hunter. I found him around the same area marked on the map and started to tame. The first one failed...as did the second. Then I died. Rez'd and came back..tried it again. First one failed...second one took...just in time for me to sit and eat before dying again.

I hear he's worth it..so we shall see.

Commento di Allakhazam

YEAH! i got him! he was there already when i searched for him so that was a surprise :P and he killed me twice caus of a failing tame attempt and another scorpid messing up my life while taming, but i finnaly got him! ^^ here's a link for his stats and lok (if i can make it work -.-')

I found him between 4 and 5 pm Eastern Time. After taming him Me a level 17 and him a level 11 kileed a few level 20 thunderlizards. He rocks.

Commento di Allakhazam

To me, this guy is the best scorpid in the game. He is the only one with a 1.6 attack speed, but his DPS is the same since he doesn't hit as hard as the other scorpids. All of the scorpids have the same exact DPS and 2.0 attack speed.

Commento di Allakhazam

Tamed him. He was roaming by the razormane battleguards... pretty easy tame since I'm a lvl 28 hunter...

Commento di Allakhazam

yeahhhhhhh... Been looking at this pet since started my new Hunter... Headed over there on lvl 10, found him straight away, and killed all around him till i reached 11 then took him as my pet.. Brilliant tank and easily take on 3-4 same lvl with him no problem...

Colouring is great, 4-5 poisons on a target does the trick nicely haha...

Me happy now... me go name him and let the killing begin...

Commento di Allakhazam

lvl 11 hunter happend to be running petless out to get a croc to learn bite off of sence i have the Rake i wanted to learn what skill i could and pass them on... now i am torn between the two. The Rake is 1.2 attack speed and this guy is 1.6 hmm. anyone have any ideas for a low lvl hunter

Commento di Allakhazam

Tamed him this morning, it took about an hour of killing every scorpid along the beach. He spawned for me near that hill that leads up to the Shaman quest.

So far so good, he came with Claw2 and the Scorpid poison, so that was nice.

Commento di Allakhazam

I hunted the little bastard for almost two hours. I even leveled killing the creeps that got in my way. Halfway through level 11 and after 2 world server crashes, I relogged and he was standing right in front of me. Tamed him, fed him, and now he's my buddy!

Commento di Allakhazam

We were in the area and this mob spawned! He looks awesome and we wanted to catch him again so my buddy could tame him for a pet. Just wondering if anyone knows the spawn rate for this mob?

Commento di Allakhazam

Spent about 4 hours camping this one's spawn point, but wow, what an amazing pet. Spent the better part of 3 hours with a Corrupted Scorpid, clearing the area out in case he spawned, and DF is so much better! Faster attack, more damage, and, well, far more dangerous :D

Commento di Allakhazam

i spent like 4hours tryiung to find him like it says on the map but nope didnt come up so ne1 got different co-ords?

Commento di Allakhazam

i got his guy at lvl 11 but i stopped playing with him at lvl 40ish when it was
lvl 31, but all the great times i shared with it, he would solo lvl 19 rogue twinks with his poison rank 2, but sadly i chose Ressan The Needler instead as a pet i would use, but still miss him ='(

Commento di Allakhazam

I do believe the rake is a better find than this guy, but not by much. Plus the rake is much harder to find and is searchd for more often

Commento di Allakhazam

I found him just wandering by the river, i was mining with my 44 hunter ^^

Commento di Allakhazam

Took nearly two hours, and after countless Corrupted Scorpid spawns I was ready to give up.

And on my way out to do the Fizzle quest I saw him. Barely tamed him as I got attacked by a Raptor halfway though, then died to a pair of Scorpids...

But I got him! Whoo hoo!

Commento di Allakhazam

I went and got him lastnight with my 18 NE we were just standing around thinking of getting a raptor and i turned around and bam there he was.

Commento di Allakhazam

Took me 5min to find this guy, (he walks in a circle for me) Great Pet!

He starts with a couple of abilites when you tame him so hes decent when u start with him. (decent attack speed) He also makes a great tank.

He's my first pet and i love him so far!

Commento di Joeplayer99

If you still have the "really sticky glue" you got from a previous quest, it is ideal for holding this guy in place as a new level 11 hunter so you can tame him.

Commento di jacksanity

for some odd reason, this guy is getting blocked from being tamed. it's killed when it spawns and also killed when you're in the process of taming it. it's also by the same guy
