I found a random Lost Crab on the top of a tower in Glenumbra. I was wondering if there are more? Is it just a little easter egg or is it used for anything?

    Upload the picture to a site like imgur or something and then you can post the picture here.

    First I've ever heard of one. So, if this is a collectible, it's either new or extraordinarily well hidden.

    Sounds like the ol' Lost Crab trick to me.
    He will bring life to the dead, hope to the living, and for him the Gate will open.

    That's awesome. The developers sometimes put random things here and there just for fun.
    My favorite random find was a book that was sitting on a table somewhere, that was written by an Orc. It talked about how the Orcs remember how the humans killed their people, and that even though they'll smile and laugh with the humans NOW, they will SOME DAY GET REVENGE. :o LOL! (I'm writing this from memory, so forgive me if I got a detail wrong.)

    I think with ps4 the only way in general is via either facebook or twitter. (Bah). I created an account just so I could save images, which I now have but have no idea how to upload this site as it wants an URL apparently - I can't just get one from my gallery. But then I do mainly do this on my phone - might be easier on pc.

    Put a USB stick in your PS4, go to capture gallery, transfer your screenshot to the stick, put the stick in your PC, upload pic. It's easy.

    Ha! Why is it the simplest solutions are sometimes the hardest to think of? Thank you.

    Here's the screenshot! It's difficult to see, but it's right at the top of that tower. Funny.

    Wait, it actually has a unique name titled "Lost Crab"? Then it would seem it was intentionally placed there.

    Can you gap close to it?

    Like teleport strike or chains or charge it? Just trying to figure out if it's killable.

    Or can you give us an approximate location? Like what landmark is closest?

    That's probably just Sheogorath playing around in disguise on one of his bored days. The telltale sign of a true Sheo sighting is a trail of cheese bits leading away from the scene.

    I actually once found a trail of cheese bits on a beach in Grahtwood I think.......... :o

    Thanks man! Haha I wasn't sure how to do that :smile:

    Here's my location when I took that screenshot: http://tinypic.com/r/rr6zxt/9
    I tried my best to get closer, but I couldn't. I thought that it's name was a little darkened almost like it wasn't alive? Might just be faded that much because of the distance. But there's seemingly no way to get up that tower. And there's no way I would have seen it without nameplates on!

    Let the 'Lost Crab' hunt begin?

    Anyway, my tag in-game is Woonsocket (Character name Sir Obsidian) let me know if you find any more :smiley:

    Is this a common Easter egg with towers? There's some kind of wizard dancing or casting or something on top of a broken tower like this in Bangkorai, right next to the dolmen on the east of the map, half way down the map. Forget the location name. I assumed he was part of a quest but now I'm not so sure :tongue:
