rustacean

A broad, flat shell in the hue of air-sucked iron has started to flake in a verdigral pattern. It shakes a single monstrous, serrated claw, caked in a year's worth of Red Death, the eroded metal dust.

Perfect

A rustacean is a creature belonging to the crabs faction. Rustaceans can be found underground, as well as in the Rust Wells and Golgotha.[1]

Rustaceans attack in melee with their \rust-encrusted claws, natural cudgel weapons that each deal ♥1d31-3 (Avg: 2) damage.[2] To compliment their claws, rustaceans have the Cudgel Proficiency, Offhand Strikes, and Flurry skills, as well as a special NPC only skill, Shattering Blows.[3]

Despite their name, rustaceans have no method of rusting metal equipment.

Shattering Blows

This section is an excerpt from Shattering Blows#Mechanics.

Shattering Blows grants the attacker a 10% chance to inflict one of the following effects with each cudgel attack:[4]

  • If the target is the player, a longer-duration version of the cracked effect on one random piece of the player's equipment.
  • If the target is not the player, or if the player has AV greater than 0, a longer-duration version of the cleaved effect.
    • The player typically only has AV greater than 0 if they have intrinsic AV, such as AV granted from the Calloused skill.

Both effects last for 2000 turns[5], which is longer than a full day in game. Both effects can also stack, leading either to cracked pieces of equipment with a greater than -1 AV penalty, and/or to a cleaved effect on the player/creature with a greater than -1 AV penalty.

In extreme cases, such as a historic site filled with rustaceans, it is completely plausible for a player to get reduced to 0 AV for a long period of time due to this effect. For example, a player with the Calloused skill might have all of their equipment cracked down to 0 AV, as well as a -3 or -4 penalty from a cleaved effect directly applied to themselves.

Trivia

  • "Rustacean" is portmanteau of the words "rust" and "crustacean".
