Crabstals are minor enemies introduced in Shovel Knight Pocket Dungeon. They are crab-like enemies with a carapace adorned with various crystals. They appear in the Chromatic Caverns and the Scholar's Sanctum.
Behavior and Tactics[]
Crabstals are very resistant enemies with an impressive 10 health points, but only cause 1 damage point. Also when falling, Crabstals can move diagonally if they cannot move downward.
Because of their large health pool, it is recommended to not neglect Crabstals on the board as they can easily fill it. It is best to attack them in chains little by little, even if that means not breaking a whole chain of them at once.
