Notes
- The Slam Radial Damage has a 29% chance to inflict the
Toxin status effect, but is unaffected by status chance mods.
Trivia
- The Scoliac's name may be derived from Scoliosis (derived from Ancient Greek σκολίωσις skoliosis “obliquity, bending”), a medical condition in which a person's spine is curved unnaturally.
- The Scoliac was the first whip revealed, shown in Livestream 14. However it was introduced after the
Lecta.
- When the Infested lab was revamped the Scoliac's model could be seen in a container, along with the
Embolist, shortly before the Scoliac was actually added into the game.
- This is the second whip to be added to the game (following the
Lecta), and the third research melee weapon available (following the
Prova and the
Dual Ichor).
