World Feeder

The World Feeder is a Hardmode worm-like enemy which spawns in The Corruption. It is somewhat rare and is not as common as Devourers in a Pre-Hardmode world. Loot is dropped from the head segment, so it can get stuck buried deep in blocks if one of the main body parts is killed first.

Tips

 * As with all worms, debuffs and piercing or area-of-effect damage are very effective, as the enemy consists of numerous vulnerable targets.
 * A Dark Lance or a better is powerful, but requires melee range.
 * The Ice Sickle or Death Sickle are strong melee weapons which can also be used from a short distance.
 * Magic weapons such as the Magical Harp or the Magic Dagger are useful.
 * The Cursed Inferno debuff, inflicted by Cursed Bullets, Cursed Arrows, or Cursed Flames, can take the World Feeder down fairly quickly.

Trivia

 * The World Feeder bears a certain visual resemblance to the Eater of Worlds.
 * Despite dropping Cursed Flames, it neither inflicts nor is immune to the Cursed Inferno debuff.
