Useful Info
Worms are early-game monsters that are durable and powerful, but quite slow and easy to kite. They flee when near death, but are very easy to pursue. They can be found as early as Dungeon:1 and are an excellent food source.
Tips & Tricks
- Worms have high damage and HP for its level, so don't be afraid to take a few steps back and pelt them from afar if they're getting the better of you in melee.
- Poisoning a worm, then backing up while the poison works its magic, is one of the safer ways to deal with them.
