In the latest development in the Elden Ring community, players have found an innovative solution to bypass the limited supply of Scadutree Fragments in the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. By utilizing the quest item Boiled Crab, players can enjoy the same offensive and defensive benefits without the scarcity, making the game more accessible and easier to progress through.
The transition to the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC has proven to be a significant challenge for fans, with many struggling to navigate the treacherous Land of Shadows. In response, players have turned to previously overlooked items like Runes Arcs to gain an advantage. However, there are other crucial items that players should be aware of to overcome the difficulty surge and succeed in the DLC.
A valuable discovery was shared on the Elden Ring subreddit by user timtimluuluu, suggesting that the humble Boiled Crab, obtainable in the base game, could serve as a viable alternative to Scadutree Fragments. Boiled Crab grants a 20% increase in physical damage negation for 60 seconds, with no limit on its acquisition. While the effect is temporary, the unlimited supply of Boiled Crab makes it a formidable tool to overcome challenges in the DLC.
However, a crucial caveat has emerged: the quest that unlocks Boiled Crab is easily overlooked, and once missed, it’s gone for good. Players must engage with Blackguard Big Boggart and speak to Rya before reaching Volcano Manor to avoid permanently locking the quest.

Fortunately, alternative items offer respite. The Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman, readily available at any time, grants a similar 20% reduction in physical damage, although it occupies a valuable Talisman slot. The Opaline Hardtear shines bright, offering a remarkable 3-minute boost to damage negation across all types. These items provide a welcome reprieve for players struggling with the formidable boss damage in Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, allowing them to progress through the challenging content with renewed confidence.
Stay vigilant, dear players, and don’t hesitate to explore your options. With creativity and perseverance, the Elden Ring community continues to find innovative solutions to overcome the challenges in Shadow of the Erdtree DLC.
