Scaboreas​

Description

Labelled "The dirtbag of the north", due to its horrid smell. These creatures were originally common in the far north of Eudoria. Early settlers exterminated the vile beasts, as it displayed a chilling preference for human flesh. Its tentacles have numerous razorsharp hooks, that makes a certain death once in its embrace.

The Creatures section is currently under construction and this process will take some time to complete. The work is being done by volunteers with limited time, so please bear with us while we add the data. If you can provide any information that is currently missing, please post in the thread to let us know.

While this construction period is ongoing, you will be able to access the old Bestiary section which is archived in a sub-forum of the Creatures section. Each mob thread in Creatures contains a link to the relevant Bestiary thread and to the Entropedia page, so if you are looking for information that isn't yet available in the Creatures thread, please use the links provided at the bottom of the first post in the thread.

Thank you for your patience.

100% Impact listed on Entropedia is almost certainly not correct.

Having watched Heiko Rat wandering into scaboreas LA and engaging some youngs in Grunt+Ozpyn Cold Protector (L) (barely survived) and Stolen Imperium (1.0 hits), I suspect some combination of C/S/I and possibly acid, and no cold.

Grunt has 9 impact, Stolen Imperium has 14 impact - no way it could make that much difference.
 
As for locations, it was OLA #22 north-west of Wolverine Hope. They're not well fed but some youngs have still survived.

Grunt decays 0.58;
Stolen Imperium decays somewhere between 3.50 and 3.67;

current best guess: impact/acid, proportion yet unknown.

0.58 decay on Grunt is 9 damage absorbed, so that looks like Impact but no Cut.

Stolen Imp isn't great for testing because it's difficult to measure the decay properly, but if it's Impact and Acid, and nothing else, and if there's enough of each type to utilise the armour's full protection, then Stolen Imp would decay 3.66, so you could be onto something there.

A test with Goblin would easily confirm if it's Impact and Acid (decay would be 1.648), and then ruling out other types would be fairly trivial.

More damage testing

Using Goblin+6a against an Old, as expected the Goblin decayed 1.648 pec, which equates to 21 damage absorbed, so we definitely have Impact and Acid. 6a didn’t decay so we can rule out Burn and Penetration.

The damage received was 31.8 so the total unprotected hit would have been 53.8, so there’s at least 12 Impact in that which is 22.3% of the total, and 9 Acid which is 16.7%

With PoE unplated against the same mob, the armour decayed 4.100 pec, which equates to 43 damage absorbed, and that is indeed the total Impact and Acid protection on PoE, and we can now rule out Cut, Stab and Electric.

The damage received was 43.5 so the total unprotected hit would have been 86.5, so there’s at least 31 Impact in that which is 35.8% of the total, and 12 Acid which is 13.8%

With Ghost unplated against the same mob, the armour decayed 1.536 pec, which is consistent with the full Impact and Acid protection (20) and we can now rule out Cold and Shrapnel.

So Impact and Acid is definitely correct (at least for an Old), and while we can’t say much about the proportions from this test, it’s at least 35.8% Impact and at least 16.7% Acid.

Now that I think of it, it's possible - by checking the maximum number of weapon cells you can buy, before and after repairing.

Yep, that'd work to 1/100 pec accuracy, good thinking :) Not as accurate as the 1/1000 pec you get from fruit test (still call it fruit test even though I always use novas these days :D) but for checking damage absorption you don't really need that much detail.
 
Dominant: 11 KP
Guardian: 10 KP

Mature gotta be 7, will update when I can confirm...

Update: Norian was indeed corret, Mature is actually 8...
 
Thanks for the mission info. I'll add it to the OP when I get a chance, along with a number of other updates that need to be made to Creatures threads.

What about the maturity fix that's in the VU notes - have the maturities been renamed in order of L number with the same stats as before?

Just confirmed myself that this is the case. Also added mission data to the OP, and am assuming for now that the chain follows the same pattern as the Caudatergus mission.
