Useful Info
Swamp worms are quick-moving, amphibious predators that can drag their enemies toward them. Their melee bite is nasty enough to be a threat to lightly-armored characters. They are common pests in the Swamp, and appear in a handful of other water-themed vaults.

Tips & Tricks
- Thanks to Harpoon Shot, swamp worms can be big threats. They can pull you off the stairs, or pull you towards a pack of dangerous enemies.
- Due to their low willpower, Hexes are very effective.
History
- Prior to 0.22, they could not use Harpoon Shot, but would submerge in water, rendering them invisible unless you were right next to them.
- Prior to 0.18, they were unable to leave the water and follow you. They could also submerge again if you walked away from them.
