Vermivorous the Invincible

Vermivorous the Invincible is the name granted to the highest level of Varkid in Borderlands 2, with the alternative title of Supreme Badass Varkid. Varkids that reach this stage are regarded as raid bosses and are estimated to have nearly double the health of Terramorphous the Invincible.

It takes 5 morphs for a larval varkid to become Vermivorous the Invincible. Thus, areas in which large numbers of varkids are found are ideal for getting it to spawn. Varkids can be found in the Caustic Caverns and the Tundra Express. The Farmhouse in the Tundra Express is an ideal location for varkids as it has a save point and fast travel station.

Each Varkid has a small percent chance at having the ability to turn into a Vermivorous if they live long enough. They do not need to be damaged, or have other varkids around. They do however, need to remain in combat for enough total seconds to hit their metamorphosis timers. Team size appears to have a direct (and increasingly positive) effect on metamorphosis chance.

The following values have been observed and clocked as relatable metamorphosis timers; the recorded times begin at the point of becoming combat-active. In other words, this is the total amount of time a varkid actor is capable of doing damage, before it might construct a cocoon.
 * Larval/Blood > Adult Pod = 10s
 * Adult > Badass Pod = 20s


 * Badass > Super Badass Pod = 30s


 * Super Badass > Ultimate Badass Pod = ~40s


 * Ultimate Badass > Supreme Badass Pod (Vermivorous) = ~100s (1m 40s)
