Like blizzards, swarms take time to fully appear. Four-corner swarms of Butterflies or Seekers which go on for a very long time can become problematic as you get to the point where you are trapped against a wall with solid boundaries of enemies closing in on you from every direction, and not enough firepower to escape. This is one of the few occasions when you will have no choice but to die or use a Bomb.

Swarms centred on you are if anything more dangerous. As soon as enemies start spawning around you, you really do have to react VERY fast, instinctively even, if you want to escape. In most cases the trick to escaping is to pick a direction and MOVE FAST - ideally the current direction you're shooting

Swarms centred on you are if anything more dangerous. As soon as enemies start spawning around you, you really do have to react VERY fast, instinctively even, if you want to escape. In most cases the trick to escaping is to pick a direction and MOVE FAST - ideally the current direction you're currently shooting, as that way will already be mostly clear. For Squares there's no need to panic, just hold still, choose a direction, and the Squares will move out of the way. For Snakes, wait to see which direction they all go before trying to move.
