Hole Worm
From Portals of Phereon Wiki
A final evolution of a Shadow Spirit. They can be evolved from Shormy. Alternatively they can be captured in shadow biomes.
They can be evolved into three different types:
| Level Type | Learned Skills | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Magic | BlackHole | Size stays the same |
| Support | MagicPull | Size stays the same |
| Strength | Bite | Size Increases |
These Elites are slow shadow spreaders, but makes up for their lack of natural mobility with skills that offer tactical repositioning and powerful damage. They have very high growth for both Strength and Magic so don't be afraid of throwing them into the fray.
If you recruit Shadow she will come with a Unique Hole Worm named Pet that differs greatly from other Hole Worms. Unlike regular Hole Worms, which are Dark Types with ShadowBound which makes them better on shadow tiles and worse off them, Pet is a Normal Type with ShadowMeld so he doesn't rely on shadow tiles and is encouraged to use ShadowForm. In fact, Pet doesn't get SpreadShadow and even gets cursed on shadow tiles. His stats also support this. Pet's base Health and Mana are lower, with even lower Health Growth, but his Mana Growth is far superior to that of regular Hole Worms so he can get more out of his skills. Between liberal use of ShadowForm and his far greater Speed Growth, in time he'll be able to zip around the map with his owner. His base Strength is also higher than normal, and though his Strength and Magic Growth is slower, it's mitigated by the boost he gets from being Unique and his Infused trait.
