The Truck Hermit Crab is one of these fights and will put you through your paces. Unlike your regular morning and afternoon dives, boss fights usually take place at night, though\u00a0Cobra's Shop\u00a0isn't available at night. Once you unlock the ability to have a night dive after completing the\u00a0A Noisy Customer\u00a0mission in Chapter Two, Sato should arrive at your boat on a stormy night. He tells you to seek out a vortex, where you find the Truck Hermit Crab, an optional boss. Here's how to defeat the Truck Hermit Crab.\u00a0 How to defeat the Truck Hermit Crab in Dave the Diver Before diving into the Blue Hole, there are a few things that you can do to enhance your chances of winning the boss battle. You can\u00a0increase the level of your oxygen cylinders\u00a0because underwater, they act as your health, which is critical to enduring the damage.\u00a0 You can also wear\u00a0the Sea People Bracelet\u00a0charm, which allows you to survive longer after running out of oxygen. Another charm you can wear is the\u00a0Dolphin Necklace, which provides a 30% faster dash to Dave. Both of these charms can be unlocked in Chapter One. Once fully prepared, dive into the Blue Hole and swim right to find the massive vortex. The vortex is easy to spot because it is glowing in the dark, and you will land at the main boss arena in\u00a0Dave the Diver. To fight the Truck Hermit Crab,\u00a0keep your distance\u00a0from the boss as it throws debris at you while spawning waste materials from the top, which reduces your oxygen meter. Moreover, the boss tries to corner you into the side, so try to\u00a0change sides\u00a0when you're getting pushed into an extreme corner.\u00a0 Why haven't we mentioned any weapons to defeat the boss? Well, that is because weapons are completely useless against the boss.\u00a0The Truck Hermit Crab boss can only be defeated using explosives, which it spawns on the ground while slamming its enormous claws on the ground. These\u00a0red explosive barrels spawn for a limited period. After that, they vanish into thin air if you don't pick them up. Once you see the red explosive barrels, grab them, get on top of the boss, and release them on his shell. Do this\u00a0four to five times\u00a0and the boss will surrender and burrow into the seabed.\u00a0 After defeating the boss, you get a rare Marinca trading card entry for Sota and a\u00a0Hermit crab pincer piece, which you can use to upgrade your\u00a0grenade launcher weapon\u00a0to level two later. Here is a\u00a0guide for making Tropical Fish Sushi\u00a0in\u00a0Dave the Diver\u00a0to keep your business in the game running.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Truck_Hermit_Crab.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1199706"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2041"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1199706"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1199706\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1199932,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1199706\/revisions\/1199932"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1199731"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1199706"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1199706"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1199706"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1199706"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1199706"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1199706"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1199706"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
