Quick explain about what I have found out.
This example:
1hp 4 25 +2 poison
Fire/Cold/Poison/etc...:
Roll: Chk vs. Poison failed 6/25 Passed 4/25
Add BANE Grimling 3
Bane:
Mob (Check vs. Race)
True = 7/25 for all hits
False = 4/25 for all hits
Now for a working model.
1hp 12/24
+2 magic damg
BANE Magical 5
Effect ( Lifetap )
Raw damgage:
12
14 if SvMagic roll failed
17 if Magical Creature SvMagic Save made
19 if Magical Creature SvMagic Save failed
Effect: Hp drain 5 (lv 1) to 32 (lv 44)
The above would be a nice weapon. But would almost never drop and cost 2-5k on Mithmarr. Hope the explain assists

I have this weapon and I've never used it cause my lvl9 (atm) VS Beastlord is using a Horns of the Spirits weapons. I've always had a weapon better than the scorpialis, so I've never used it. It's just sitting in the bank taking up space. Does anyone know if I can sell it or something? Please let me know.

Its NORENT so you can't sell it, or drop it, or give it away.

You mean NO DROP.

Scorpialis is well worth picking up for any untwinked beastlord. Remember that piercing and HTH are our primary weapon types, and you're unlikely to get a better piercer for a long time; 4/25 becomes 6/25 if the mob fails its poison save, which is quite respectable (ratio of 0.24, compared to the HTH ratios of 0.25 of the Khati Sha fighting claws or the 0.2 of the popular and easy to acquire Horns of the Beast, although the latter come with useful HP and Mana mods). there are a great many weapons with poorer ratios out there;; if you do a search on Piercing weapons/By Ratio/Class Beastlord, there are 59 entries and Sorpialis comes in at 22 without the poison damage modifier (I'd say it would jump up about 5 or 6 places as a 6/25). All in all, hard to beat until well into your teens or even twenties.

Further to my last post, I see that Allakhazam's does the ratio the other way round. Allakhazam ratios would therefore be: Scorpialis 4/25 6.25, Scorpialis 6/25 4.166, Reinforced Khati Sha Claw 4, Horn of the Spirits 4.28.
I may be wrong, but I have been told the bane damage, Poison damage, Bonus damage, etc. only adds that value to the resulting blow. Say you had this and struck for 8 damage and poison was not saved.. it would hit for 8 damage plus 2 Poison damage.
But then again, I may be wrong.

I ended up writing about this weapon on this very subject in another thread:

If you don't care to read it all, just know this: It adds the Poison damage to the base damage, not the result.
Edit: Grr, always too quick to hit the "Post" button. Anyway. Dunno about Bane Dmg, but Magical "Bonus Damage" is added to the base for sure. On the other hand, the "Damage Bonus" (which is garnered from your Level, Strength, Skill and Delay) is added to the result. It's just tacked on at the end of the equation.

Having played a lower-level cleric I can definately say that Bane damage is added to the base damage. The increase in maximum damage on a Summoned Hammer of Wrath when attacking an undead can't be explained any other way.

The spirit, "Scorpialis" is talked about by Spiritist Ragnar after you have finished the "Siver" quest (magic shield). Ragnar is in the building next to the bank. I reckon therefore that this is another whisperling and you will be able to upgrade it by follow-on quests.
If you want to do start the "Siver" quest, tell "Groo McManus" that you are ready.

I agree, haven't actually tried it yet, but next time i see tailfang i hope he will drop the proof of his death...tailfangs tail. Then we shall see if it can be upgraded.
From what I've heard:
Poison DMG: 2 means with each hit this item checks vs. the mobs poison resists. If successful, the weapon becomes a 6/25 weapon for that hit.

Picked up Tailfangs tail the first day I had SoL, he isn't hard to kill at level 3 or 4, turn this in to the guard under the south bridge in the pit, gives XP and this weapon. don't know exactly how the +2 PosDMG works tho, then again I only used this for like 10 minutes before banking it.

Tailfang is KoS, unlike the other scorpions; can kill a level 4 or 5 pretty easily.
Weapon is not impressive, though for an untwinked beastlord/lady it's not bad.
