Another Crab’s Treasure: What Is Shell Insurance & How to Keep Your Shells

Players in Another Crab’s Treasure may want to keep a particular shell that works best for them and their playstyle, and, fortunately, you can with Shell Insurance.

Shells are a key and unique part of Another Crab’s Treasure. They each come with their own unique abilities and stats, allowing the player to focus on a particular playstyle. Of course, Shells break after taking quite the beating, although not if you focus on a certain stat, forcing players to search for another one. However, there is a way of preserving your favorite Shells with Shell Insurance. Below, we explain how this works so you don’t have to say goodbye to your Shells.

What is Shell Insurance in Another Crab’s Treasure?

Shell Insurance is a purchasable failsafe to keep you from losing your Shell in Another Crab’s Treasure. The insurance can be purchased for Microplastics at Shellfish Desires in New Carcinia, with costs varying per Shell. If you have a Shell equipped and die, the Shell will drop at your death location. Additionally, if you are killed again before getting it, the Shell will disappear. This then forces you to look for a new one. This is similar to how preserving your Souls works in Dark Souls.

However, purchasing Shell Insurance for your targeted Shell eliminates the worry of losing it when you die. Furthermore, the Shell will also respawn with you when you appear at the next spawn point.

How To Spawn Insured Shells in Another Crab’s Treasure?

Players who want to spawn Insured Shells must ensure they are in their collection and be at a Moon Snail Shell. There are steps to be taken to get your shell at respawn. Luckily, it is a straightforward process, and we have listed it below:

  1. Locate and rest at any Moon Snail Shell.
  2. Go into your Shell Collection.
  3. Select an Insured Shell; they will have a grey pin attached to their picture.
  4. When you select your Shell, the pin will turn blue, indicating the Insured Shell you picked.
  5. Next time you die, you will spawn with your chosen Insured Shell.

Always be sure to do this process when wanting to take a new Shell out with you. As you can lose one upon death, doing the above steps will save you a huge headache.
