The Scorpion Den

Description[]

The Scorpion Den, also known as Sepermeru Silver Mine, is a small dungeon located in the south-western desert area, south-east of Sepermeru, City of the Relic Hunters. It teems with scorpions big and little, but can also be a profitable venture for anyone brave enough to gather silver in the dark mine shafts.

Location[]

The Scorpion Den can be found at the Abandoned Silver Mine between The Jawbone and Rhinohorn Ridge. - TeleportPlayer -213874 124350 -3682.

Layout[]

When first entering, a small cavern to the right is available with a small Note.

It contains two bosses and a unique recipe. Players who finish it can obtain:

Skeleton Key
Scorpion Ward - unique shield
Scorpion Egg-sac (Pet) - can be used to obtain Tamed Scorpion (Variant A, B, C or D).
Scorpion Queen Venom Gland - can be used to craft Scorpion Queen Poison
Fragment of Power
Recipe for Scorpion Queen Poison

An outcrop of red Crystal indicates the path deeper into the dungeon.
If you manage to get into the green pools on either side of the Scorpion Queen's location, you may not be able to get out of them.
In addition to lots of Silverstone, there are copious amounts of Ironstone, Coal and Stone in the mine.
The Scorpion Den is subject to the Sandstorm, which increases the utility of bringing a protection mask massively.
Parts of the dungeon can be climbed up on at the sides, to find additional treasures (since Update 1.44).

Lore[]

“	I never thought I would see this much silver in my entire life. This place is a goldmine! Well. Obviously it's not. It's a silvermine. Who cares? It's not like anyone is going to read this journal - I don't even know why I write in it. Thrann has gone back to Sepermeru to find us more explosives to dig deeper as he believes the veins stretches further down into the mountains. If we dig much further, we'll end up in the wine cellar... The less said about THAT place the better, really. Thrann already blocked the way to it by collapsing the tunnel there. Whatever darkness lurks in that place is not something I care to think about. Instead, we are making progress towards the west, following a promising vein downwards.	„

“	Remember! We are NOT - I repeat NOT -digging towards the southwest! Get that into your thick skulls, you cretins! If you do, I'll throw you in there myself!	„
	~ Note

“	I'm the last one. I'm writing this in case anyone should find this - don't go any further! We managed to retreat back to this part of the cave - the scorpions seem unwilling to leave their den. At least for the time being. Don't go in there. That monster is still there. Me and the rest of the rest of the survivors are leaving - sod the silver!	„
