Knight Crabs Rage!!!
Okay, a few days ago I was camping KA while my friends were at another NM. When the Knight Crabs popped, I decided to hold one until they could arrive. I ended up holding it for about 20 minutes. At the 10 minute mark they started hitting me for around 70, and often. As a 75 PLD/WAR with pro and shell on as well as defender and tavnazian tacos I thought that I would be okay... I was wrong. The Knight Crab started critical hitting me consistently for always above 250 and topping out at 400. I was extremely lucky that my friends showed up as I was at about 200 HP with no MP left over. When I started to hit it, I missed a good 6 times in a row to start until my SMN friend Predator Clawed it and one-shotted it. Just as a future reference to anybody holding crabs, always get a new one if possible, and it is NOT AGAINST THE GM POLICY to hold normal monsters such as Knight Crabs, therefore they can not ban or suspend your account. --Odessy123 01:17, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
This is wrong it is against the Policy. Some players try this often. In every case we called GM the holding player got an 48h bann. GM told us it is not ok that there 40 ppl waiting for an event and just one is holding a crab to gather Linkshell. This is because the Knight Crabs are not normal Monsters, they are related to a NM. Cool thingy is, GM is showing up his self everytime. :D
