- Season 4 Hotfix #1 - 21 October 2022
Hi everyone, Thanks for your patience while we worked out the kinks from our newest Season which includes; nerfing the golden-wreathed mantis shrimp, being able to collect those pesky new skills, and re-introducing the Mace of Giants! (with some changes). As always, thank you for playing King of Crabs and reporting these bugs and issues through our community channels. We really appreciate it! Balancing A crab special now has a limit when scaling off of the weapon multiplier. Reduced the amount of special gained by extremely high damage attacks. Mantis Shrimp no longer gains additional special from its attack. Changes The Mace of Giants no longer makes your crab larger. Instead, the Mace of Giants is HUGE and has an added attack bonus. If you are picking up an item and have no item of that type (shield, melee, ranged) on your crab, the item pickup timer is much quicker. Fixes Fixed multi…
