Desert Wurm

Description
These are the giant wurms of the Desolation. They also knock down the party upon first attack and have powerful melee attacks and very thick skin. They almost always appear upon the sulfor-coated areas of the Desolation, meaning that it is difficult to find them unless inside your own ridable Wurm. This creates for amusing (but long-lived) Wurm fights.

Location
Most or all sulfuric areas of the Desolation. They cannot be seen before they are aggroed.

Skills Used
None

Items dropped

 * Unknown, but presumably a form of collectable Shell.

Note

 * Cannot be knocked down.
 * Like most Wurms, these creatures tend to pop in and out of the ground at will. If the player is not inside their Junundu Wurm, they will be knocked down.  They also knock down on most (but oddly not all) ordinary hits.
 * Their attack damage much more higher than the Sand Wurm found on the Tyrian side of the Crystal Desert, capable of dealing nearly 334 damage to a 70 AL target, which is nearly 3 times the damage dealt by the Tyrian Sand Wurms.
 * They have many times more health and health regeneration than the Tyrian counterparts.
 * They are a major threat to the ridable Junundu race of wurms. They take very little damage from Junundu's damage skills while taking away more than 300 damage to Junundus per attack.
