Classification: Beast
Threat Level: High.
Weakness: Arrows.
Notes:
Giant Swamp Snakes are vicious beasts and not to be taken lightly. Easily five meters in length, these snakes possess a bite that can perforate a man in full armor in an instant. As if that were not enough, those who try to flee from learn the hard way that they also have an innate magical aptitude. Fighting a cluster of these will spell doom for all but the hardiest of adventurers. If you do manage to kill one, stripping it of their hide will gain you a good amount of coin for your effort, however.
A bow and arrow will work best against their hide, easily piercing their scales. Likewise, stabbing weapons are a close second, but this is not really recommended unless you want two ivory pikes impaling you.
