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).
