Crab Champions Guides — Weapons, Upgrades and Island Runs

Crab Champions guides built around the real weapon and upgrade data: all 17 guns with full stat blocks, all 146 upgrades with rarity and scaling, biome plans and build advice.

Where the numbers come from. The weapon and upgrade tables are built from the game wiki's own data, not from memory. The guides are judgements about that data: where a page needs an exact figure, we mark it and check it before we call it fact.

Start here

Crab Champions is a roguelite FPS. Most runs end for one of three reasons: standing still, wasting the ability, or an overlap build that leaves an angle exposed. Read the beginner guide first, then the weapon and upgrade databases.
