@@Crownerasedin a way he’s not wrong. If they put it back in the water with no shell it’ll be eaten very quickly by a fish or other marine life because it’s not in a hole to protect itself. Also those orange slice looking things are his old gills and his new ones need the water so the crab is just suffocating and drying out.

I think the most surprising thing to me is that it left its gills behind in its old shell. Imagine having to grow a whole new pair of lungs every time you have a growth spurt.

Patch Notes ------------------- Max HP - Increased DEF/Armor -Decreased Attack Power - Decreased Movement Speed - Decreased HP Regen - Increased EXP Gain per Level - Increased Temporary nerf, but will ultimately be a net buff after farming some EXP and leveling up, as long as it's able to avoid higher level PvP players until it completely regens. Overall, still a decent class to play, but I do worry about it's performance in the current meta since it does not appear to be playing on an aquatic server at the moment.

FYI it can't do this faster as the new exoskeleton (aka the soon-to-be new shell underneath the old one) is still soft and slightly gelatinous. Once it hits air it hardens right up (which is why some crabs like to do this whole thing whilst outside of the water)but either way, when the crab's body is ready it will send out a kind or lumphatic fluid between the older layer and new layer

It happened so slow and seamless that i wanna keep rewinding it cuz it feels like i keep missing it 😂

I knew this. Had seen it on a video from Sir David Attenborough. After the molt the crab is very vulnerable for weeks his new shell is not hard enough to withstand any predators so he keeps it very low key for that time period. Interesting video. 👍🏻👏🏻
