Tips and Strategies
Acquire Moogle Stamp #20
Before leaving the River Belle Path, make sure to locate the third Moogle Nest. From the Wind Hot Spot’s location, go northeast and reach dead end. Examine the left side of the bluff to open a secret hole.
Giant Crab Boss Strategies
Here is a breakdown of the battle strategies against the boss:
Take out the mobs
The boss has an army of mu’s that can interfere during the fight. Dispose of them quickly since these enemies can slow you down with stun and prevent your nuker from completing his cast time.
Move around the field
The boss tends to slow you down using its bubble attack. While the projectile travels slowly, your best bet is to always be mobile. Avoid the bubbles to prevent the boss from gaining the opportunity to catch up with a powerful charged blast.
Use Fire magic
Spells like firaga are useful not only against the boss but also its minions. On top of striking the boss’ weakness, the elemental magic also weakens its physical defense which paves the way for blunt weapons to do more damage.
Avoid the front
When landing attacks, avoid approaching the boss from the front. The boss has a very fast attack that affects enemies that remain directly in front of it.
Close in right after it stops
After dodging the boss’ charged attack, punish it immediately by going after the side or back.

Already updated. Thanks!
Almost all my items in chests were different from what was in this guide. Is that normal or did you make a mistake on 75% of the chests?
Nevermind I figured it out.
