Tips & Strategies
I’m a switch noob.and I swear too god,my server is haunted,I live in the hidden lake,and it keeps on saying my level 12 karkinos killed a coelacanth,I WITNESSED a coelacanth die.so I was in the lake building some pipes for a auto garden and I saw a coelacanth and then suddenly 267 damage was dealt too it and it died,there was nothing around it.conclusion is that I apperantly own a non controllable and invisible crab,and that dlcs might be coming too switch,cause there is no dlcs on switch and karkinos is aberration exclusive.

If you're carrying a tamed Doedicurus in your claw the Doedic will automatically start harvesting any stones you hover him over. Just start pumping points into your Doedic's weight because it will stop at about half of its own carry weight. I've yet to discover another tame it will work with though...
The Karkinos is considered a large predator and therefore does not aggro other predators when ridden (with the exception of other karkinos, rock drakes, etc.), making it a great mount for relatively safe traveling!
HOWEVER!!! Smaller predators WILL attack if your karkinos is holding a prey creature in its claws, so keep this in mind while transporting tames and wild creatures!
Alright not exactly my tip, but heard this from the YouTuber pterafier. He said that using a Crab with a Turtle with C4 strapped on it is a good seige device. Put C4 on Turtle, then use Crab to throw the Turtle at a base. Detonate the C4, blowing up the base where the Turtle is at. I'd recommend watching Pterafier, he has a lot of tips on his channel.
