Revision 4

Overview

The Blue Crab is an Aquatic Animal found along the coastlines of Pywel in Crimson Desert. It is recorded under the Aquatic Creatures section of the Knowledge Codex upon discovery.

Appearance

The Blue Crab is a creature armed with claws and armor. It hides in the sand during the day and hunts prey at night, making it a nocturnal predator along sandy shorelines. Its shell turns a vivid red when heated, though the edible portions are limited due to the thick carapace.

Location and Habitat

Blue Crabs are found along sandy coastlines and tidal flats. They bury themselves in sand during daylight hours and become active at night. Visiting coastal areas after dark increases your chances of spotting them. The Knowledge Codex will mark their habitat once the species is registered.

How to Gather

Blue Crabs can be gathered by hand along shorelines, particularly during nighttime when they emerge from the sand. Use the pickup interaction near beaches and tidal zones. They may also be encountered while fishing in coastal waters. The Complete Fish List covers related aquatic species.

Uses

Blue Crabs serve as a Cooking ingredient. While the thick armor limits edible portions, the meat inside is flavorful. They can be prepared at campfires or kitchen stations as part of seafood dishes.

Tips

• Search sandy beaches at night for the best chance of finding Blue Crabs.

• During the day, they hide beneath the sand and are much harder to spot.

• Counts toward Aquatic Creatures completion in the bestiary.
