Swimming is a type of movement done in water. While shallow water can simply be walked through, going through any water deeper than waist level will result in you swimming through it. Swimming in deeper or dangerous waters will cause you to slowly die to Slaughterfish.

There are some different types of liquids that can be swam through such as lava, which will cause you to burn to death, and the black ooze of Apocrypha, which can kill you through Abyssal Assault.

While Swimming, your movement speed is reduced to 60% of your regular walking speed. It can be increased to be a maximum of 120%.
