A juvenile Mantikora

Mantikoras are four-legged beasts with two arms and the tail of a scorpion. They can be found in parts of Upper Craglorn. The creatures were created by the Scaled Court using nirncrux and alchemy.

Mantikoras were artificially created by the Scaled Court alchemist Regent Boward in Serpent's Nest. They combine the traits of numerous predators, the primary ones being scorpions and a specially bred wamasu. Additionally, captives from various races and nirncrux pools were also utilized. Mantikoras are large, powerful, and exceptionally intelligent, and that makes them extremely dangerous. Hruzizolk, the Progenitor Mantikora, is capable of creating other young mantikoras on her own.

Mantikoras can be found at Skyreach Hold, in the Serpent's Nest, and during the fight against the Serpent in Sanctum Ophidia.

Skills and Abilities

Claw Swipe

The mantikora does quick claw swipe at the player, dealing a low amount of damage.

Sweeping Strike

The mantikora swipes its spear at the player if they are not in reach of its claws, dealing a low amount of damage.

Charged Up Attack

The mantikora readies its spear to deal a heavy attack. If the player successfully blocks it, the mantikora is stunned for a brief period of time, allowing it to be toppled with a heavy attack. If the player does not block the attack, they are hit for a moderate amount of damage and are knocked back slightly.

Enrage

Around 50% of its health, the mantikora becomes enraged, indicated by a red glow around its body. This phase greatly increases the damage of the above attacks and the mantikora also starts to use more devastating ones.

Ground Pound

The mantikora rears its forelimbs and brings them down to cause a heavy ground pound in a small radius around it. Players should step out of the circle, or else they will incur a high amount of damage and be stunned.

Hurl Javelin

The mantikora hurls its spear into the air and it homes in on the player like a javelin. Players should step out of the target zone that is formed around them, or else they will incur a high amount of damage.
