Pattern[]

Always starts with Attack-common Chomp.

Afterwards, has a 45% chance of using Intent - Buff - Defend Bellow, 30% chance of using Attack-defend-common Thrash, and 25% chance of using Attack-common Chomp.

Cannot use Intent - Buff - Defend Bellow twice in a row, cannot use Attack-defend-common Thrash 3 times in a row, and cannot use Attack-common Chomp twice in a row.

In Act 3, where you can encounter a group of 3 Jaw Worms, they will start the combat with the bonuses from Intent - Buff - Defend Bellow before the player can act. They do not always start with Attack-common Chomp, but otherwise follow the same pattern as in Act 1.
