Segments
Notes
This enemy is noticeably larger than other worms, ranging from 12 to 21 segments long.
The Dune Splicer is very agile, and can turn very quickly. This can be especially dangerous due to the Dune Splicer's large hitbox.
In a sandstorm, this worm becomes the second fastest worm in the game, only beaten by the Phantasm Dragon .
Trivia
Dune Splicers may be inspired by the sandworms in the Dune franchise. This further reinforced by the Bestiary entry, as sandworms in Dune eat spice.
The Bestiary entry for the Dune Splicer: "The world's largest, most deadly worm. Strengthened by ancient magicks, it can devour a spicy Terrarian quicker than they realize. "
