Myrmidon

"Where shall I strike?"

"By ebb and flow..."

The myrmidons, with their navy blue skin and fearsome tridents, are among the strongest warriors in the naga's almost unlimited army. They are feared by all who dwell near the sea, most especially by the Makura Empire (whose homeland is situated near Nazjatar). In Warcraft III, an elite segment of myrmidons who function as the personal defenders of Vashj are referred to as the Naga Royal Guards, who essentially function the most powerful units of their race in game (second only to the Naga Sea Witches). Among their people, they are the most fanatically loyal to their beloved empress so much so that they no longer bother acknowledging orders, they simply do them.

Royalty

• Rajah Haghazed - The direct counterpart to Rajis Fyashe.

Statistics from Warcraft III

This section concerns content exclusive to Warcraft III.

In Wacraft III, myrmidons emerge from the Spawning Grounds structure. It is unknown if they are bred in the pool, or whether the pool acts as a portal to warp the myrmidon from some other location. If it is the former, then the ridiculously fast manner by which they create more and more warriors simply puts them on par with the speed of the Scourge and other races built for speed.

Myrmidons of Illidan Stormrage.

• 1080 HP
• 36-60 normal melee damage (fully upgraded)
• 8 heavy armor (fully upgraded)
• Abilities
  • Ensnare (throws a net that incapacitates units and brings flying units to the ground)
  • Submerge (this unit goes underwater to escape attackers)

Myrmidons of "Old Hatreds"

• 1080 HP
• 46-74 normal melee damage (fully upgraded)
• 8 heavy armor (fully upgraded)
• Abilities
  • Ensnare (throws a net that incapacitates units and brings flying units to the ground)
  • Submerge (this unit goes underwater to escape attackers)

Notes

• Myrmidons were the devoted follower of the warrior Achilles in Homer's The Illiad. They were the fiercest fighters of the Trojan War. The term has come to mean someone who serves without question, a fitting title for one of Azshara's followers.
