Its main attack is spitting [[Spike Ball|spiked ball]]s at Wario; Wario can easily damage it with repeated attacks. The Sandworm cannot be stunned; when it loses one of its health skulls, it instead becomes temporarily invincible, and either slashes after Wario with its scythe-like arms, or burrows to the center of the arena and starts spitting many spiked balls in random directions. When this happens, the sand pit pulls Wario in much faster. If damaged enough, it will also strike back with more powerful moves, including slicing Wario with its arms. Defeating the Sandworm gives Wario access to DinoMighty. | ||
The Sandworm also appears in [[Pecan Sands]] as a regular enemy, where its attacks are a bit faster, but it is fought and defeated in the same way. This time, it only takes four cycles to defeat instead of five, and during its invincibility phases, it will only attack with its scythes. | The Sandworm also appears in [[Pecan Sands]] as a regular enemy, where its attacks are a bit faster, but it is fought and defeated in the same way.
