NPCs & Enemies Fixing Worms

[neoselket]

Right now, worm enemies in Terraria(The Destroyer, Eater of Worlds, etc.) are the easiest type to defeat. Why? Because they have multiple segments which can each take damage, making piercing weapons annihilate them. To change this, i would make all segments of worm enemies have half a second to one second of invincibility when any segment is hit with a piercing attack. To help balance this, worm enemies(The Destroyer specifically) would be vulnerable to debuffs, however, if one segment has a debuff and another segment got the same debuff, the first debuff would be canceled.

I think that might be the point, though.

Interesting thought. Way too much of a delay but interesting. Giving the other segments an invincibility for a shorter duration would increase their durability to them.

by delay, are you referring to the invincibility period? half a second isn't that much.

As compared to the 1/6 of a second invincibility timer for piercing attacks it is.
