How to Obtain
Wild Capture
Wild pets are captured, not looted. Find one in Shadowmoon Valley, start a pet battle, bring it below 35% health, then use a trap before finishing the battle.
Moonshell Crab: ability choices and unlocks
The table connects Moonshell 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 |
|---|---|---|
| Arcane Slash | Slot 1 | 1 |
| Water Jet | Slot 1 | 10 |
| Shell Shield | Slot 2 | 2 |
| Amplify Magic | Slot 2 | 15 |
| Renewing Mists | Slot 3 | 4 |
| Moon Tears | Slot 3 | 20 |
- Slot 1 pairs Arcane Slash (level 1) with Water Jet (level 10). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
- Slot 2 pairs Shell Shield (level 2) with Amplify Magic (level 15). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
- Slot 3 pairs Renewing Mists (level 4) with Moon Tears (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: Shadowmoon Valley
