Skin Trivia

  • The old store icon for the Swarmer has it outfitted in its Level 5 appearance (except for the Bee Gun, replaced with honey).
  • The Swarmer's version 1-3 Level 5 outfit is very similar to R2DA's Beekeeper Suit.
  • The Swarmer's Level 3+ weapon, is heavily based on the Bee Gun from Terraria. The Beehive Grenade is also based on a Terraria item, the Beenade.
  • Prior to the 30th of April 2025, its ability would be referred to as Beehive Grenade. This would be an incorrect name as the Swarmer actually throws a bee nest.

Roblox Catalog

  • The bees that the Swarmer fires at the enemies are the Bees accessory from the Roblox catalog.
  • The hat formerly used by the Level 5 Swarmer is the Beekeeper accessory from the Roblox catalog.
    • This hat is also used by the Level 1-4 Swarmer in a different texture.
