Craggler

Craggler is a heavily-armored scuttler that claims elevated territory, preferring ceilings to the ground. Within its layered shell lies a multi-sacked reservoir of corrosive acid expelled onto prey below. Needolin echoes reveal territorial boasting and defensive instincts: 'Larger, greater! All is mine... only mine!' and 'Become like stone... Sear their shells...' In Act 3, void corruption enhances its threat though behavior remains consistent.

Found in Wormways, specifically the long passage near Moss Grotto’s lower connections—effectively guarding the corridor and impeding progress. In Act 3, a void-corrupted variant appears, increasing danger.

Craggler scuttles rapidly across the ceiling, tracking you across the room. It repeatedly sweeps acid back-and-forth (2 Masks) with brief recharge windows. The room’s platforms allow hiding underneath during acid sweeps, then crossing during recharge. Swift Step excels at cleanly avoiding barrages. Approaches: • Tool-based: Cogfly provides near risk-free damage from cover; Pimpillo, Sting Shard, Curveclaw also work from safe angles. • Timing-based: Jump to land 1–2 hits immediately after a barrage ends, then duck under platforms before the next. • Platforming: The layout intentionally offers acid-proof shelters—use these to maintain safe offense. • Act 3: Void corruption elevates risk; play conservatively and value safety over aggression.
