Profession: Ranger

what confirms this? —ZerphaThe Improver 21:43, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Ah, you got this information from the old Wiki, and the old wiki got it through Galil, argumenting that they have to be Rangers as they shoot arrows, lol xD ( Tundra Giants, anyone?) —ZerphaThe Improver 21:48, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Weak Against Bows

I know for sure that these are weak against arrows.

they are weak against anything (KILL MementoMori 11:20, 3 June 2009 (UTC))

I tested the lvl 1 worms at marksmanship test and compared to hammers anyway, they take over 4x damage from ANY piercing damage. This includes the factions' preorder daggers which will crit for 26 damage while enchanted. It is equal to ~84 armor rating difference which checks with prima guide's numbers. Apparently they have a base 24 armor rating. It doesn't list them as -60 vs piercing but it is likely there which when combined equals -84 armor comparatively.

Also tested a lvl 14 playful moa (piercing damage) with 11 beast mastery and it did ~150-250 crits, wild. Justice (talk) 02:11, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

Fire Vunerability

I have added that they are vunerable against fire based on the following experiment.I lured a Strider next to a worm with my Ranger, used Ignite Arrows, and then shot the Strider with the arrow. The worm took 12 damage, when it should have only taken 9 damage, which is a 33% increase. --Hawkins 18:58, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

You had 6 Wilderness Survival then? Your bow's damage would be added to the Ignite Arrow damage. If you were using a bow that only did a few damage, that wouldn't imply any weakness. Manifold 19:07, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

Nevermind, I used your table, and the damage checks out. It confirms, however, that Plague Worms are in fact Rangers, as the numbers check only with the Ranger's elemental bonus--Hawkins 19:09, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

9 years later and I tested the wurms, they are not resistant to anything. Elemental/physical/chaos are all the same. Justice (talk) 09:32, 5 May 2019 (UTC)
