If they are in water the can crab you, which leads to a certain death. Not so dangerous on land. (Pun intended)

Best source of organic and chitin on abberation. Kill them with a 100+ spino or drake

Will rip you off tame I repeat TAKE YOU PFF YOUR TAME AND KILL YOU EASY

On ASA only use catupolts, cannons no matter if you hit the head it will decrease the taming effectively, and cannons are super hard to aim you have to press buttons in more options to aim it, catupolts are a lot more easy. Up to let people know

They can be outran on foot with a bit of speed upgrades, however make sure you dont cut it close or else OH YEA MR KRABS

Has a slow reaction time and you can usually avoid it attacking you by running under its legs.This might change in later patches

These things are ur best friend on aberration and their jump is crazy high. Tame one right now!

Kill and use chainsaw for organic polymer or even better use a moschops spec’d into organic farm to really increase that organic poly farm easily

It takes 17 boulders for a 150 if you don't miss any

I just figured out that rocket launchers deal torpor to the karkinos, much like the rock golems, but they die a bit more quicker since they don't have much health and rocket launchers deal a lot of damage.

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 often spawn near the lake by the portal in aberration so if your looking for one be careful and don’t swim to deep!

Your crab is out of HP, and there is no annimal corpses to bring? Just put 10+ sleeping bags not far from the trap and let Karkinos kill you enough times to regain HP (as I calculated - 300 HP per death)

This works only when Kark is not fleeing. Otherwise you need to wait until torpor goes down and crab starts to attack. But this worth it. You won't lose the crab you want!

I have ran into these things before... If you find them I would RUN FASTER THAN YOUR TRIBE MATES

Watch YouTube video from captain fatdog karkinos trap and use this to tame them. I struggled so many times and then I realised you can't do it going up a hill. Flat surface and hitting it in the head are the two main problems but as soon as I had got it right it was so easy.

Up for noobs

The karkinos is immune to radation

They drop Organic Polymer when you harvest their corpse

Hey guys, Mana here, Syntac has a good Karkinos trap, here is what you need:

-triangle foundations 3x (metal works best)

-door frames 4x (metal again)

-large bear trap 1x

-signboard (yes, metal)

-catapult

-boulders (depends on the karki’s level)

OPTIONAL (but recommended):

-pillars 1-3 (wood or above, stone recommended)

-ceiling; at least 1 (wood or above)

-ladders (however many pillars you brought)

To make the trap, you need to:

1: place a triangle foundation down

2: place the other two so they are in a trapezoid shape

3: place the doorframes so they are going out the longer side of the trapezoid

4: place the bear trap

5: place catapult

6: lure the karki into the trap (make sure you don’t get grabbed)

7: when the karki gets trapped, run behind it and place your metal signboard

8: make sure your hitting the karki on its shell (the spot behind its head) to do torpor, anywhere else will only do damage

If your missing a lot and its health is low (you can check with magnifying glass), kill a creature (don’t harvest it), drag it to the karki, and let it eat the corpse, this will heal it.

OPTIONAL STEPS (recommended):

Before you place catapult (does not affect steps 6 and 7):

1: place you pillars in a tower

2: place a ceiling on top (or more if needed)

3: place catapult on top

4: place ladders to get up

Reason why to do this:

If you tower up, if the karki moves or starts torpor running, it’s shell (the part you have to hit to do torpor) gets hard to hit, so with the height advantage, it is easier to hit.

That’s all, hopefully this will help anyone trying to take a karkinos. :)

teachers game too has a good video for a trap with metal triangle roofs that i use religiously on rag asa

Good for launching swamp fever dodos into enemy bases and watching them suffer. Or throw a load of tickle chickens. OP.
