This massive worm is probably over twenty to thirty feet long, making it an easy target to hit, but having uncomparable force and strength. Dark red in color, it seems to have no eyes, but its keen sense of smell quickly finds targets.[1]

Hunting strategies

Despite being an gigantic worm, Giantmen cannot properly aim their attacks at a roa'ter.

Other information

Roa'ters are infamous for their burrow attack. This attack causes the roa'ter to plunge into the ground and follow you around, until it eventually bursts forth directly under your feet. This usually causes a severe wound, and many times death if it hits a vital area. Yet, because they are famous for the treasure in their boxes, many people find it worth the risk to hunt them. Training in Combat Maneuvers increases the ability to negate the effects of this attack.
