Iโd say Iโm having pretty bad day. So, I just bought Abberation and I was so excited, so I went over to the water. I donโt know much about Abberation, so I thought the Karkinos was just a kind little crab. Oh boy was I wrong.. I went closer to the water, as I was thirsty. But the Karkinos comes running up to me, picks me up and shreds me to pieces. Letโs just say I took a little break from Abberation 1 minute after I bought it.
It's a Giant crab that can throw it's enemies far away
If you manage to tame one of these than go and grab stuff and KIl IT :)
They can jump real far and there so strong I recommend it if you want to destroy things
They spawn in Genesis in several caves in the Lunar biome
Make sure to carry around grappling hooks
If picked you can graple the crab and it will let go
Karkinos can perform a grab attack that will pull you off of almost any creature. However, they can only do this grab if they are standing in water. Even the slightest puddle of water will let them grab. For your own safety, donโt fight them while they are standing in water, unless you would like to be slammed into the floor repeatedly by a giant spider crab.
Available at floating island caves in Crystal Isles.
They're very rare in there so be patient
In the wild crabs and spinos are buddies... they use the buddy system...
