(apart from a dead one ;-)

as i can only think of skyrim and oblivion's ones (cannot remember if there are any in morrowind?)

for me i would have to pick the tamriel mudcrabs. skyrim's mudcrabs are great also,but they are too bulked up (like they have been lifting weights for too long),along with the art of deception (looking like a rock when hidden.now that's just not on :down:

the tamriel mudcrabs just look elegant to me.

what say you?

The kind I run into the other day.

"Tamriel" is the entire continent. Do you mean Cyrodiil mudcrabs?

My favorite Mudcrabs are by far those in Skyrim. Those nasty little things scrunch down along the banks of streams and mimic rocks. And then, just as the unsuspecting adventurer is about to step on one, that rock comes to life. That's really great and entertaining creature design and animation.

My second favorite is Morrowind Mubcrabs. They looked imposing. They were slow and heavily armored. Those thick pincers in the front looked dangerous.

My least favorite is Oblivion Mudcrabs. I don't think they blend well into their environment at all. They look thin and weak. They have none of the advantages of their cousins in Morrowind or Skyrim. Oblivion Mudcrabs do not impress me at all.

I think the Skyrim Mudcrabs are the best, actually being able to take you by surprise. Not to mention they are the most varied type, with small and large types(that even have different amounts of health and damage, instead of just being re-sized).

I prefer the Skyrim mudcrab, I think they look and behave the best.

Mudcrabs were the cause of my first player deaths in both Morrowind and Oblivion. Luckily this time around you don't meet them right away while exploring, but they are still lethal to a low level character.
