We trapped several of these but was very difficult. Several times they would see the trap and turn around, run, and you could not get agro back. The ones we did trap would not agro once in the trap. Did WC implement some sort of trap avoidance BS?

Once we had it in the trap, we could walk under it and around it, punch it, no agro.

Anyone got a taming tip for these that actually works? Damn near impossible to hit in the right spot when its moving.

If you're taming these use a cannon it will be 1-2 cannon balls, ensure the cannon is about 3 foundations from the trap and 4 pillars high. Easiest tame ever and op

Use a catapult or cannon to knock out. Fire at the head, and the crab will do a little hop NOT a jump to signify you have correctly inflicted torpor

Canon to knock high level, catapult for lower level (canon kill lower level)

Saw on a youtubers channel him doing torpor damage with a direct body hit with a catapult.

You knock it out with the catapult and it eats carbonemeny kibble.

A catapult is the best way to knock them out.

Only takes 1 cannon ball to knock out a lvl 135

The thing with 2,000 eggs a day

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

Choose the soldier class, use your rocket launcher to rocket jump over it and shoot it in the back with the rocket launcher.

If you don’t have exceptional kibble, and play on switch/mobile, then you can use turtle kibble, which is way easier to get, due to turtles being common.

There kinda easy to knock but finding one is a different story

You can knock it out with a rocket launcher

For easy Rare Flowers to mass tame or keep hives fed, Megachelon will passively produce them. Toss one out for a while, then check its inventory later for far more than you’ll ever use at one time.

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.
