People say don’t use a cannon but there are three workarounds that makes the cannon viable for taming efficiency.

1. Build a trap with ceilings across the top where the crabs back sticks thru. You can still hit the back and the ceilings block the splash damage that lowers TE.

2. Place the cannon on the ground in front of the crab and aim up. It will hit the crab in the face but the splash damage will go over the top.

3. Knock out the crab with a cannon then let the topor drain til it’s about to wake up. Pump it full of a bunch of Narcotics then immediately pump a bunch of stimulants to make it wake up. What will happen is stimulants pause the narcotic effect temporarily. So it will wake up resetting it’s taming efficiency to 100% and then eventually pass out again from all the narcotics that are still ticking. If you have the time this is the best way to get 100% efficiency on a crab if you don’t use a catapult which takes 10-20 shots, but cannon is ALWAYS a 1-shot KO.

I hit then with Cannonball

They die

it can pick up anything from a dodo all the way to a stego(trikes+ it cannot including megalos) it can jump very high as well as toss dinos extremly high alot of health and weight and can transport not just your dinos but your alliances dinos...immune to radiation...you cam attack with 1 claw or 2 claws...very slow mouny though

Agro into pin and ko with catapult hitting backside of body. You’ll know you’ve done it right if crab sort of squats and flinches! Be very careful because these things are easy to kill if you hit anywhere else but backside of crab. Recommend having two catapults on each side since crab likes to spin around. Or place catapult on paracer platform saddle. Best of luck dudes and dudettes!

If it grabs you, crouch and stand, it will drop you

Trap it with stone gates and with any level, one cannon shot to the body and it's out cold.

Used a cannon and got a K/O on first shot to the face.. this has been consistent with all my karkinos, so I don’t understand why body shots are preached... FYI taming timer is off, my 140 is taking 2 hours to tame on 2x with spoiled meat, not 1.

To tame this set up a 3x3 four walls high and build a catapult, makes somewhere around 20 boulders. When knocking it out be sure to get body shots because if shot in the legs it gets no torpor, only takes damage. Use these with an anky for metal runs or with stegos to destroy your enemies...

Build a pillar trap approx 6 pillars high to trap it otherwise it'll jump out.

You can knock it out by shooting it in the abdomen with a rocket launcher homing missile I knocked out two that way

Help it’s on my switch,I typed in the admin bar summontamed crab_character_BP_C ,now it’s just coelacanth dying randomly and “your level 12 karkinos killed a coelacanth.and then I spawned a untamed one and now there is just the music that plays when something wants to murder you,I tried shooting it with a harpoon but it is invisible and I think not even a solid,but it’s there.

Give it a tasty sack of beans

They have a blind spot where they can’t hit you under there head Really useful when you get jumped

The best op all terrain being able to jump, carry almost anything, and walk underwater.

also super useful for raids via yeeting c4 covered dodos at bases

Tek stryder with cannon can stun It xD, hit perfectly without damage him, 2 hit After lvl 75

How many boulders does it take to knock out a 150?

Btw it can be knocked out with a cannon but it’s safer to use a catapult.

It in fact cannot be picked up by a Quetz. Don't bother trying it. Unless mine was bugging out or the platform saddle prevents it from getting picked

I wonder if you can take to mantis with swords and use them with Karkinos that would be cool

Land Quetz
