Swamplurk Info
Could someone post it's stats? It's SPECIAL and health, attack damage, special attack damage etc? Gabriel Cortez 02:09, 28 June 2009 (UTC) Just about to ask the same question, also the damage resistance info would be important.

Just something I've noticed
It seems that the PL variation of the Mirelurk King is simply called Swamplurk. The regular Mirelurks are still called just that.

Uhh... yeah. In the GECK, though, they are Swamplurk, and the King gets gender reassignment surgery to become a queen. Somebody just fergot to copy-paste the names onto the 'lurk. Just doing my job. 18:47, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

HALP I DONT UNDERSTAND
I snuck up on a Mirelurk King in Point Lookout (simply called "swamplurk", as mentioned above) and placed a frag mine in his inventory to blow him up and when i did i LOST KARMA! What the hell?!

It's a bug. They don't even have pockets to pick. Nitty 21:49, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

I know, you pick-pocket the grenade into his gills, and that is mean, that's why you got bad krama!--The lovely Miss Friday 21:52, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

Data Wildly Inaccurate...
Just ran into the Swamplurks in Point Lookout and they are NOT simply repackaged Mirelurks. The look like the Creature from the Black Lagoon and seem to be either damage resistant (I scored a critical head shot with the Lincoln Repeater and it barely scratched the thing) or have a LOT more HPs than the listed 120. Also, they have some kind of distance weapon. I'll try and get more data, but they are considerably more dangerous than a Mirelurk. —Preceding comment was unsigned. Please sign your posts with ~ !

You're thinking of the Swamplurk Queen. Spoon Leave me a freakin' message 16:54, September 25, 2009 (UTC)

Nope, I just double-checked to make sure. Haven't run into a Queen yet, but the regular Swamplurks are as I indicated - they look like the Creature from the Black Lagoon and they're tougher than Mirelurks. --MrShush 03:12, September 28, 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay, I'll explain because you're slow and didn't click the link. The game calls Swamplurk Queens just "Swamplurk". They're retextured versions of the Mirelurk King from the wasteland. However, the GECK calls them Swamplurk Queens, so we call them that here. The retextured Mirelurks are called "Mirelurk" in the game, but the GECK calls them Swamplurk.

PS3 Bug
The name bug with the Swamplurks and the Swamplurk Queens happen to me on the PS3 version. --Chiefsean16 20:37, December 22, 2009 (UTC)

Pinsers!?
I only just noticed it then, should I add it to the article that Swamplurks have pinsirs at the tail? The regular Mirelurks don't have them though. Also, they look kinda like an earwigs pinsers! Pog 05:31, July 9, 2010 (UTC)
