+'''Swamp worms''' are quick-moving, amphibious predators which lurk [[submerge]]d in [[deep water|deep]] and [[shallow water]], attacking when you get too close. Their melee bite is nasty enough to be a threat to lightly-armored characters, and they can painfully drag distant foes into melee with their [[Harpoon Shot]]. They are common pests in [[the Swamp]], and appear in a handful of other water themed [[vault]]s.
 ==Tips & Tricks==
-*A weapon of [[venom]] or other means of [[poison]]ing them lets you kill them even if they try to flee and [[submerge]].
+*Swamp worms are one of the least dangerous inhabitants of the Swamp. The biggest threat they pose is if they manage to pull you into a disadvantageous position while fighting bigger foes. The Swamp's layout makes it difficult to bottleneck opponents, so be aware of this threat, and don't simply button mash enemies while swamp worms are around.
