Krill is on a boss-killing spree inAnother Crab’s Treasureto recover his home shell.
Beating the boss gives you a map, which is required to progress the story.
However, for that, you must first beat this intimidating crab.
After coming out of the pipe,take a left,and you willfind the location of the Heikeaboss.
At least one second before the attack warning, ablue icon appears on Krill’s head.
This is theboss’s go-to attackwhen his health ranges from70 to 100 percent.
After that, heunleashes the fright attackto force Krill to hide in the shell.
Aggro Grab
Below 60 percent health,Heikea will start using the aggo grabattack.
If the boss catches you, he willcrush Krill with the right pincerand throw him at a certain distance.
If you happen to stand near the edge, theboss will throw you below the boss arena.
Two-handed Weapon
The boss willbreak his weapon into twowhen you deplete Heikea’shealth below 50 percent.
If caught by the first strike, blocking the second one will be challenging.
Swipe And Smash
Heikea will switch his standard attacks.
Beating this bossrequires patienceas rushing will get you killed by theoverwhelming might of the attacks.
You also need tolevel up Krill at least to the stats we mentionedabove.
Otherwise, with low vitality and attack power, beating Heikea will be challenging.
The best way to deplete Heikea’s health faster is towait for the boss to complete his attacksfirst.
For example, Heikea’s overhead stick smash is a mighty attack.
If you havestowaways that favor higher attack powerat the expense of speed, land at leastone charged attack.
Otherwise,two to three light attackscan easily be landed on Heikea before the boss starts swinging his stick.
The boss’sground smash attack makes him vulnerableon the sides.
The only time you need not rush Heikea is during the fright scream attack.
When thescream ends, the bossfollows up with a 180-degree stick swingattack.
This will give you enough time to strike Heikea with a few hits.
Unlike the unforgiving aggro grab attack ofthe Pagurus boss, theaggro grab of Heikea is much more forgiving.
This attack will still deplete much of Krill’s health, but theboss has no one-shot capabilitylike Pagurus.
TheHeikea boss becomes a little toughwhen hishealth falls below 50percent, and hebreaks the stick into two pieces.
Dual swipes become his go-to attacks that can easily be dodged.
it’s possible for you to strike after that.
This Mantis Shrimp boss in Another Crab’s Treasure is a difficult beast.
