Summary
King Crab II is the boss for Summer Event 2018. He is a reborn version of King Crab.
He currently resides on his volcanic island.
Background Story
An early expedition performed by the Research, Secure, Annex Foundation (RSA) onto a beach filled with decades of dumped nuclear waste led to their covert group discovering the home of one of the most elusive species of crab to ever exist, nicknamed the King Crab.
Due to its extreme strength, and uncanny ability to tear apart teams of trained men, the RSA was ordered to put it down and they did. But they left the little ones alive, and many years later, survivors fleeing perhaps an even more dangerous enemy found themselves facing the crab's descendant, King Crab... the first?
Don't question it. Chronology works in mysterious ways.
It was less of a struggle than expected. The crab wasn't particularly strong. Turns out, when you're used to ripping apart mythical species and ancient evils, you can handle crabs easily.
However, perhaps RSA should've been more thorough, as King Crab survived the ordeal.
Rewards
- Regular Chests which may contain:
- Any Summer 2018 item, 5x-25x
- 30 to 75 Tickets
- Varying amounts of cash.
- Any regular items (such as Grenades but not Airstrikes, Jetpacks or the Flash), 5x-25x
- Empty (Nothing)
- Crab II Chest which will contain either:
- 200 Tickets where King Crab II dies.
- 1,000 EXP
Tips
- Get into the water whenever the volcano starts erupting.
- Use the Jetpack to gain an advantage of not getting hit when on the ground.
- But still be careful, the Sand Crabs King Crab II summons might hit you while you are trying to ascend.
- Standing on top of King Crab II is possible, but not recommended due to the Wave of Sand attack that is capable of killing anyone close to him.
- Bring an armor that gives lots of health, such as Bulldozer II or X-Mas Cape.
- Bearing in mind the arena is quite big, standard automatics will not be effective in this map.
- The Famas, Minigun and M249 (without the Hipfire attachment) are the best weapons for this map.
- Considering the Sand Crabs, the Flamethrower, M202 and RPG are also recommended here.
- The Famas, Minigun and M249 (without the Hipfire attachment) are the best weapons for this map.
- As a rule of the thumb, try to stay as far away as possible from King Crab II, while still dealing damage. Stay as close as possible to the water's edge to escape the volcano.
- King Crab II will find nearby surface or attack nearby survivors if he is ever in the water.
Trivia
- King Crab II is believed to be the ancestor of the original King Crab, due to the given year that the supposed battle takes place.
- However, this would make no sense in terms of numbering, since the numbering would suggest that King Crab II is the descendant of King Crab.
- In early debugging phases, this boss had 2,000 health, which was later upgraded to 200,000. In the final update, however, this boss has 300,000 health.
- King Crab II is known for causing players to randomly disconnect or cause NoobBuster x16.
- This was patched in v1.2.0.
