If ur new then don’t go anywhere near it. They are SO annoying!

When you see one, they will attack you. Grab a pike or spear, and just hit it / back up a few times. Because they can also be found in vast numbers around Viking bay, grab a friend or 2 to help exterminate.

When you see one and it chases you try to get out of the water but calling your creature to you (if you brought one) if not shoot it with your crossbow or sword also don’t let it get you or you will get knocked out with it’s pincers.

After you risk taking a deep ocean death nap trying to kill these narco pinchers, use a metal hatchet for black pearls. They dont give you very much, but their easier to kill and easier to find then alpha squids

You don't need a spear gun just use a pike and float above them always have still stimberrys in your hotbar when they bite you swim to land ASAP then eat stimberrys

It does lots of torpor so be careful

I found one. But can’t put a picture up......

Go to rag and they spawn in Vikings bay then bring a harpoon gun or tame to kill them.

If you get hit once by this creature early to mid game, your practically dead unless you have high level dinos nearby to kill it. It's got a decent move speed on land as well. Best way to kill them is to aggro then them and swim up to make you sit below you. They cant swim upwards so you know.

My favorite thing to knock out or should I say push my mates into to get knocked out

Use itchy to kill them, they do massive amounts of torpor!

If ur on Ragnarok then they will float up on land at Viking bay

If you have low torpidity just use a bow or crossbow and move backwards while shooting it in the head with arrows (any will do). Be careful if they hit you, they can put you to sleep.

Been encountering these on the beaches on Ragnarok not even in the water

Good for farming black pearls from them. Also watch out for their heavy torpor attacks. Kill from a distance if you can and then harvest with a pick axe

They are an easy kill if you avoid their attack or you're gonna be knocked out cold just use a spear or pike and float above them

Can be found at the bottom of viking bay. Super easy black Pearl's. Kill one and wait. More will come. Then move a bit and repeat.

Um...... run! If not grab your pillow

With low Equipment do NOT try to kill these for Chitin... They are even with 4+ Resistenz knocking you oit with ond hit do better avoid these guys

You find so called lobsters in the bottom of the ocean floor (deep down) but worth it
