Snob Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 My Rock Lobsters die when they're coming out of the caves.. That's not normal, right?

ButterStuffed Posted April 11, 2014 Author Share Posted April 11, 2014 They die when they get onto the surface? I don't think they are supposed to but I haven't brought any to the top side after I got the Rog so I dunno if it's intentional. If it is it's about time because those things will infest the top side like rats.

Strangerdanger101 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Question, how long does it take for them to infest pretty much everywhere? Like, how much in days?

NeoDeusMachina Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 I found that if you fed them a couple of stones while they were tanking mobs in their defensive mode, they would stop being in defensive mode and not retaliate, then they would die rather quickly. This seem to be a bug, I don't know if it has been reported or not, but it's the only way I found to quickly dispose of a rocklobster on the surface.

ButterStuffed Posted April 11, 2014 Author Share Posted April 11, 2014 When I say the rock lobsters are invincible I meant when they were while in the defensive mode, so don't go trying to kill ancient guardians relying on lobsters.

Ysulyan Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Sorry for necroposting but if you have the RoG DLC, then there is an effective way of killing them.I just experimented with the DragonFly Vs. Rock Lobsters situation.DragonFly's infamous buttslam with Ring of Fire AOE deals great amount of damage and can kill even a fully grown Lobster in one hit-chain. You can use it to get rid of a good amount of Lobsters as long as they are not in their camouflage mode.
