Scorpids of Azeroth — WoW Classic fauna
Vanilla WoW Classic 1.12 · x5 realm · wowx5.ruScorpids are armored, venomous arthropods of the scorched wastes. Their realm is blazing Tanaris and infested Silithus, where they belong to the wild beasts bestiary as the most desert-bound family of hunter pets.
The scorpid is a pet for those who love damage over time: its Scorpid Poison applies a stacking venom to the target, adding extra damage for the hunter.
What scorpids are
Scorpids are giant scorpions with a tough chitin shell, sharp pincers and a venomous sting. They inhabit the driest corners of Azeroth and are perfectly adapted to heat and sand.
The silithids and their kin from the Ahn'Qiraj swarm stand apart — but true scorpids remain ordinary beasts, not part of the Old Gods' hive.
Where scorpids live
Scorpids love heat and appear in desert and volcanic zones of mid and high level.
| Zone | Variety | Levels |

| Tanaris | Desert scorpids | 40–48 |
| Silithus | Venomous scorpids | 55–60 |
| Blasted Lands | Crimson scorpids | 46–54 |

The scorpid as a hunter pet
The scorpid is a durable pet with high armor and the unique Scorpid Poison ability: it applies a stacking venom that deals damage over time. That makes the scorpid a great pick for players who value long, grinding damage.
The poison shines in PvP and against high-health targets, where the extra damage over time visibly speeds up the fight. In toughness the scorpid rivals the boar and turtle, so it holds threat reliably. Scorpid chitin and stingers are prized by crafters.
