The Swarm is a type of dark energy found in the Shadow Lair.

Traits

The Swarm is the dreadful darkness that envelops the Shadow Lairs. Its power becomes more intense and tangible as Knights descend into its territory, and reaches its highest concentration in the Unknown Passage.

It can be perceived as a strange, black pixelated mist floating around, and it may become concentrated to the point of forming a strange source from which flows a dark essence. This is called a Swarm Source.

Swarm Portal

A vicious swarm portal...

A small swarm portal that is used to resurrect fallen members of the swarm. It is more like a Grim Totem than an actual monster, and therefore it does not fall under a bracket. Any swarm-infected monster placed above these dark portals will have their defences increased until they are invulnerable.

Types

Swarm Source


Swarm Turret


Trivia

  • Since the Swarm Source buffs any monster, the Mecha Knight Kits can get buffed by it too. This is a bug.
  • The last level of Spark and Roar spawns a black pixelated mist floating around the area. This along the green Crimson Order insignia on the floor points that the Swarm and Herex may be related.
