Worm

Corpse Worms and Weaver Worms are smaller, faster versions of the Disgusting Worm.

Behavior
Corpse Worms are thrown towards the player by Festering Zombies, while Weaver Worms hatch from eggs in the corners of the rooms of the Stilt Village and Morass of the Banished.

They also innately chase the player via teleportation.

Strategy

 * A Corpse Worm's attack is extremely fast, and therefore can be dangerous if the player is cursed, though they are easily wiped out by splash damage. The Weaver Worm is less threatening as its attack is slower, but one still needs to pay attention to it.
 * If Corpse Worms are nearby, focus on killing the Festering Zombies spawning them first as otherwise it will generate an endless horde of worms to pursue the player. Then kill the worms with AoE damage.
 * If you manage to parry the Corpse Worm egg in mid-air (thrown by the Festering Zombies), the Corpse Worm will turn to a friendly Biter

Trivia

 * Weaver Worms used to be called Sick Worm.
 * Corpse Worms used to spawn when a Festering Zombie died.
