Talk:Rock Lobster/@comment-47.136.94.188-20170210195538

Rock lobsters are so OP, I use them to kill almost everything -- slurtles/snurtles (farming armor), depth worms, cave spiders, spider queens, cave swamp tentacles. Keep 10-15 in the overworld, they can help be a third alternative for hounds (first being toothtraps, second being beefalo). For moosegoose, you need 6 or so, for deerclops you need 8-12 because his attacks are devastating they hide so you need a big group. For bearger, I stick with treeguards (2-3) rather than use rock lobsters because he will destroy many of the with his AOE. To keep the rock lobster population down, just befriend a few before going into the caves to bring them back down there and make sure they are no longer following you before you leave the caves.

The only problem I've encountered is when I accidentally click attack on one of them then it becomes this rock lobster war that never ends. Even if it's 6 vs 1 it takes them forever to be killed because they go into hiding. It's worst when you do it at your cave base and can't access your icebox and chests for fear of accidentally clicking a rock lobster again. Luckily it's only been a problem in one cave.
