How to Obtain
Wild Capture
Wild pets are captured, not looted. Find one in Vol'dun, start a pet battle, bring it below 35% health, then use a trap before finishing the battle.
Hermit Crab: ability choices and unlocks
The table connects Hermit Crab to its recorded abilities, grouped by combat slot. Open an ability to inspect its effects and other pets with the same move.
| Ability | Slot | Unlock level |
|---|---|---|
| Pinch | Slot 1 | 1 |
| Fish Slap | Slot 1 | 10 |
| Shell Armor | Slot 2 | 2 |
| Bubble | Slot 2 | 15 |
| Dive | Slot 3 | 4 |
| Whirlpool | Slot 3 | 20 |
- Slot 1 pairs Pinch (level 1) with Fish Slap (level 10). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
- Slot 2 pairs Shell Armor (level 2) with Bubble (level 15). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
- Slot 3 pairs Dive (level 4) with Whirlpool (level 20). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
Before leveling this pet for a team, check which of these alternatives your plan needs. Compare its in-game health, power and speed with the requirements of the encounter. A matching ability name alone does not establish that two pets are interchangeable.
Where to Find It: Vol'dun
Return to BoralusThe game data places this pet in Vol'dun but records no spawn coordinates. The gold pins are the zone's own landmarks from the game data, not this pet's spawn points.
