To cook up the delectable Sea Crab Soup in Tower of Fantasy, Wanderers will need an ingredient known as the Hermit Crab. While this crustacean’s nutrition for human consumption is debatable in real-life, adventurers can enjoy several benefits from its stew recipe. Sea Crab Soup offers increased Flame Resistance for 900 seconds or 15 minutes. Such a buff can be extremely helpful when battling enemies or bosses that deal Fire Elemental damage. For example, Astra’s World Boss, Robarg, has several Fire-attacks that can be devasting to unprepared combatants. Accordingly, knowing where to find and catch Hermit Crabs in Tower of Fantasy is valuable information.

Finding Hermit Crabs In Tower Of Fantasy

Hermit Crabs can be found in multiple regions throughout Aesperia in Tower of Fantasy. Specifically, Wanderers can encounter Hermit Crabs in Banges, Crown, and even Navia. However, the number of crabs in Navia is so negligible that it is best to search the other two regions instead. 

Tower of Fantasy: How to Get the Voyager Hull

Thanks to the interactive map made by AppSample, Tower of Fantasy Wanderers can figure out precisely where the best spots to farm Hermit Crabs are. The first optimal farming site is, without a doubt, the beaches near Banges Dock. This area has spots where multiple Hermit Crabs can be found scuttling across the sand. Accordingly, a quick run up and down the beach should net players several Hermit Crabs in Tower of Fantasy. Newcomers should keep in mind that the Banges region becomes accessible once they’ve reached the point in the main story when they become separated from Shirli and Zeke. 

After saying farewell to the members of Astra Shelter at the start of Chapter 2, the protagonist will receive a Relic called the Jetboard. This Relic functions as a traversal tool to ride across the water quickly, allowing players to cross the sea north of Astra to reach Banges. After arrival, Wanderers will be able to find and collect several Hermit Crabs around the coast. Another excellent spot to gather these crabs is the Banges beach south of Anchorville and northwest of HT201 Shelter. The third-best area for farming Hermits Crabs is the southeastern islands of the Crown region, near Seaforth Dock. However, the crabs are relatively spread about the beaches, making it less convenient to collect them. Remember that Hermit Crabs can only be picked up after they’ve been struck with any weapon. Players will need to be fast since the creatures can flee fairly quickly.

Tower of Fantasy is available on PC, Android, and iOS.
