Useful Info

Worms are early-game monsters that are durable and powerful, but quite slow and easy to kite. 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.
