Solen Infiltrators are solen sent to spy on the rival hive. They're tougher than the normal ants their bodies copy, and they're the targets of the Solen Matriarch quest.

Overview

• In-game names: a red solen infiltrator or a black solen infiltrator
• Corpse: a solen infiltrator corpse (warrior-type) or a solen infiltrator corpse (queen-type)
• Four kinds: each color (red and black) has a warrior-type infiltrator (warrior body) and a queen-type infiltrator (queen body), and both are called just solen infiltrator, so you can only tell them apart by size. Black ones are darker.
• Behavior: it attacks the nearest target it sees and fights in melee.
• Solen friendship. Players who finished the Solen Matriarch quest are friends of either the red or the black hive. Solen of your hive don't treat you, your pets or your summons as enemies. If you, your pet or your summon damages a solen of your own hive, the friendship ends at once: "The solen revoke their friendship. You will now be considered an intruder."
• Solen Matriarch quest: the quest asks you to kill 7 infiltrators of the other hive (red matriarch: black infiltrators; black matriarch: red infiltrators). Finishing the quest makes you a friend of the matriarch's hive.

Loot

Warrior-type infiltrator

Every warrior-type infiltrator carries:

• Gold: about 120–300 in total (from its "Average" ×2 loot)
• 1–4 random gems (amber, amethyst, citrine, diamond, emerald, ruby, sapphire, star sapphire or tourmaline)
• 3 zoogi fungus (5% chance of 13 instead)

It may also carry:

• A magic weapon, armor piece or shield (up to 6 chances, from about 5% down to 0.5% each)
• A musical instrument (about 0.8% or less)
• A picnic basket holding a bottle of wine and a cheese wedge (1% chance)

Queen-type infiltrator

Every queen-type infiltrator carries:

• Gold: about 260–350 in total (from its "Rich" loot)
• 4 zoogi fungus (5% chance of 16 instead)

It may also carry:

• A magic weapon, armor piece or shield (up to 3 chances, from about 20% down to 1% each)
• A musical instrument (about 1% or less)
• A picnic basket holding a bottle of wine and a cheese wedge (1% chance)

Zoogi fungus is part of the Solen Matriarch quest: the matriarch turns it into powder of translocation (1 powder for every 2 fungus, up to 100 at a time). Red and black infiltrators have the same fungus odds.

Carving

There's nothing to carve from its corpse.

Tips

• Infiltrators have no acid sac, so melee is safe.
• For the matriarch quest, only the other hive's infiltrators count, and both the warrior-type and the queen-type count.
• The queen-type has 151–162 hit points and 50 armor, so it's the harder of the two despite the same name.
