Another crab’s treasure is finally out, and if you are such a fan of it too Soullikes Being me, you’ll probably pick it up. Good news: It’s pretty great and chock-full of charming nods to that souls games, Close combat and skillsand incredibly funny jokes. However, one of his running gags could potentially bite you in the ass and cost you some much-needed healing. Here’s what you must know so as not to be captivated by a cute animation Another crab’s treasure.
The main character Kril has an idle animation that starts running after about 50 seconds of being left alone. The animation itself is adorable, showing Kril juggling a heart kelp pod. Another crab’s treasureis the equivalent of healing potions or estus bottles. It’s a playful part where he uses his fork and various appendages to juggle the seaweed like a skilled soccer player. You go, Kril! However, if he takes control of it again, Kril will be abruptly shocked out of the idle animation, causing him to fiddle with the heart kelp capsule and potentially lose it.
Don’t worry, you can pick it up again provided the heart kelp landed in a reachable location. They can often be picked up around the world and are used in a number of boss fights. So hope is never completely lost if you do find yourself falling into an abyss, which can happen more often than you think. Players will also regain all Heart Kelps when they rest Another crab’s treasure‘s campfires, which are called moon snail houses. However, I would still be careful about where exactly you leave Kril idle, as in many places…including a row of moon snail shells– are dangerous places for kelp juggling as they are on ledges or sometimes on bridges with a few boards missing. I let Kril hang around in some of these supposedly safe places, thinking I’d be fine, only to be betrayed by this Trojan horse of an animation, because when he fiddles with the heart wrack, it sends him flying a lot further forward , than you would expect. To get away and not suffer any consequences, give Kril enough space so that you can see the animation and still get your stuff back.
It is important to note that Kril will not perform idle animations if you do not have Heart Kelp Pods in your inventory. Without it, Kril just stops. After all, you can’t lose what you don’t have, but you’re missing out on a hell of a time watching him do it.
Assuming you have heart kelp pods, you may not want to risk losing one right at the start Another crab’s treasure, when there are only a few to go around. And this despite the fact that moon snail shells are always suitable for resting generally A good idea – since they heal you, restore your heartweed capsules, and act as checkpoints and fast travel points – they also make enemies respawn. Another crab’s treasureThe game’s common enemies are just as sneaky as some of its bosses, and in certain difficult areas it may be better to accept the loss of a Heart Kelp Capsule than reset a few badass hammer-wielding crabs.
In general, be careful where you leave Kril. And for heaven’s sake, if you’re faced with a challenge, just pause the actual game instead of just letting Kril stand. You’ll thank me later.
