Sticky: Crab Legs/Backpack Q&A

Posted

After repeatedly seeing posts asking about removing the SoA Crab Legs I decided to create this post in the hopes that it gets created as a Sticky for this forum so we dont get the same post every week or two.

Q: When do I get the Crab Legs?
A: When you reach level 24 or higher and chose any "Crab Power".


Q: What is a "Crab Power"
A: Any power that comes from a Crab pool (primary or secondary).


Q: What if I take a Crab power that does not use the backpack?
A: Tough. It is a Crab power and you get the backpack (assume that even though there is no backpack animation the backpack "powers" the power.


Q: What about dual-builds where my primary build is a Crab but my secondary is a Bane?
A: Your 2nd build will still get the legs.
NOTE: this was meant to be fixed but at time of writting still wasnt.


Q: If I respec can I get rid of them? (thanks Tealeaf)
A: Respec out ALL Crab powers on both builds. A single Crab power on either build will retain the backpack/legs (see Q above)


Please feel free to add commonly asked questions about the Crab Backpack and their answers.

If any of the above is outdated/incorrect (oops) please correct me and I will update the OP.

MODERATORS: Can we please make this a Sticky.

Oooh, I've got one!

If I take crab powers, then respec out of them, will I still be stuck with the pack?
