How To Beat Pagurus the Ravenous In Another Crab’s Treasure
Before facing Pagurus in Another Crab’s Treasure, it’s important to make sure that Kril is ready. While you can meet this boss early, it’s recommended to wait until Kril has the Mantis Punch ability. This move is very helpful in dealing damage and breaking down Pagurus’s defenses.
When fighting Pagurus, playing defensively is important. This boss’ attacks are dangerous, so it’s best to focus on dodging rather than parrying. Keeping a distance from Pagurus helps avoid its deadly moves, like the grabbing attack that can cause serious harm to you.
Choosing the correct shell is important too in this boss fight. The Banana Peel Shell works well against Pagurus because the boss is allergic to bananas. If Pagurus eats Krill wearing this shell, it’ll take a lot of damage for him, helping you win faster.
Pagurus the Ravenous Attack Moves in Another Crab’s Treasure
Here is the breakdown of Pagurus’ move set in Another Crab’s Treasure:
| Attack | Description | Image |
| Five Hit Combo | Pagurus charges at Kril and performs a five-hit combo with both pincers, finishing with an uppercut. |  |
| Knife Attack | Pagurus will attack with a single swipe using the knife. |  |
| Fork Attack | Pagurus will attack with a single swipe using the fork. |  |
| Fork Lunge | When a blue icon appears, Pagurus will thrust its right arm fork forward. |  |
| One Grab Kill | Pagurus tries to grab Kril with its left-hand knife. If it succeeds, Kril is either eaten or thrown away, often resulting in an instant defeat. |  |
| AoE Smash | When a blue icon appears, Pagurus raises both pincers and strikes them down. |  |
| Fright Scream | Pagurus jams both pincers into the ground, followed by a scream that builds up the Fright status effect, potentially causing Kril to hide in the shell. |  |
| Centipede | If Pagurus’s health drops below 50%, a centipede emerges from its mouth. |  |
Pagurus’s Frighten attack is very dangerous as it leaves Kril defenseless. To defend against it, you can use Kril’s shell to shield yourself. Dodging or blocking when Pagurus tries to use Frighten can completely avoid the status effect.
