Talk:Eater of Worlds/@comment-4135733-20110711091629

there is a current glitch with the Eater of souls in which The eater of souls will burrow too far underground, causing everything to become "normal". Since you are too far away, the segments of the worm will start to die off. This happens very commonly if the worm is cut into smaller pieces. Also, if this happens while the worm is close to death (about 3-12 segments left), then the worm will die underground, with a message saying that the Eater of Worlds has been defeated. All loot from the rest of the worm will be lost underground unless somehow you can find it. This has been tested multiple times by me, and everytime the normal music is played the worm either dies or shortens in length. I would post this in the wiki but its currently locked.
