- This article is about the creature from Heroes of Might and Magic III. For other uses, see scorpicore.
The scorpicore is the upgrade to the manticore, the sixth-level creature of the Dungeon faction in Heroes of Might and Magic III. It can be recruited from the upgraded manticore lair.
Manticores and their venomous cousins, the scorpicores, have features combined of bat, lion and scorpion. They attack with stabs from their stinging tails. Scorpicore attacks have a 20% chance of paralyzing an opponent. Creatures thus petrified take 50% damage and are unfrozen when attacked or after three rounds.OffBck
The upgrade gives an increase in attack, defense and speed. It also grants a Paralyzing venom, similar to the medusa's Stone gaze, with a 20% chance of paralyzing targets for three rounds.
Notes[]
- Synca is a specialist in scorpicores, and gives them +1 to Attack and Defense per hero level after sixth level. These creatures also get +1 to Speed.
