Crab Tsar is one of the Local Legends of Nod-Krai, and finding and defeating him is equally difficult in Genshin Impact Luna I. The Local Legends are tied to specific missions in the Nod-Krai region, and they also have a new objective system that rewards well. So, here is a complete guide on how to find Crab Tsar and defeat him in Genshin Impact Nod-Krai.
How to Find Crab Tsar Local Legend in Genshin Impact
Crab Tsar can be found inside a large opening near Frostmoon Enclave. To unlock Crab Tsar, players first need to complete The Mirrors, the Maze, and the Tsar quest. The Crab Tsar has to be defeated at the end of this quest in a gimmicky fight, but this will be the same location he spawns later as a Local Legend boss.
After completing the quest, head back to the same location to find the Crab Tsar. Now, defeat him by completing all the objectives to get various rewards from the Adventurer’s Guild.
How to Beat Crab Tsar in Genshin Impact
Crab Tsar Movesets in Genshin Impact
- Stoneborne Seeds: Summons Stoneborne seeds that can be converted using Bloom/ Hyperbloom/ Burgeon/ Lunar-Bloom damage. Doing this will damage and stun Crab Tsar.
- Tsarly Bombardment: Occasionally, Crab Tsar will jump up into the sky and hover there with a shield while he charges a massive attack. During this time, he will summon Stoneborne seeds under him. Convert the Stoneborne seeds as mentioned above to break the shield and stun Crab Tsar.
How to Defeat Crab Tsar in Genshin Impact
Crab Tsar is weak to Bloom, Hyperbloom, Burgeon, and Lunar-Bloom damage. To defeat him, you need to constantly break the Stoneborne seeds around him. As mentioned above, it can only be done using Bloom, Hyperbloom, Burgeon, and Lunar-Bloom damage, so any other team comps will struggle against this boss.
Keep your rotations ready for when Crab Tsar decides to use the Tsarly Bombardment attack. Once you break the shields using Bloom damage, he will be stunned for a brief duration. This is the moment you have to deal the most damage to it.
Simply doing these steps repeatedly will let you defeat Crab Tsar in Genshin Impact. However, remember to also complete the objectives. The third objective specifically asks you to “Shoot down the Crab Tsar before it executes its ‘Tsarly Bombardment’ for the second time,” so it is more of a DPS check to defeat him by then.
Best Teams to Defeat Crab Tsar in Genshin Impact
1. Lauma-Nilou Lunar Bloom
The best team for this boss fight will obviously be the Lunar Bloom team of Lauma. Pair Lauma with Nilou, Nahida, and Kokomi to destroy all the Stoneborne Seeds in seconds.
- Main DPS: Nilou
- Support: Lauma
- Sub-DPS: Nahida
- Support: Kokomi
2. Raiden Shogun Hyperbloom
Raiden Shogun with Nahida Hyperbloom continues to remain one of the strongest teams in Genshin Impact. With the boss being vulnerable to Hyperbloom, this team can be very effective against it.
- Main DPS: Raiden Shogun
- Sub-DPS: Nahida
- Sub-DPS: Kaedehara Kazuha
- Support: Kokomi
3. Alhaitham Hyperbloom
Alhaitham Hyperbloom continues to be one of the stronger teams in the game. This team is a bit harder to use, due to the overamplification of dendro. However, it also deals insane amounts of damage in the hands of veteran players.
- Main DPS: Alhaitham
- Sub-DPS: Raiden Shogun (Electro enabler)
- Sub-DPS: Nahida
- Sub-DPS: Yelan (Hydro enabler)
