I can't pull off a grapple kill and stay on the platform.

There aren't any instant kill beams listed, so I don't see grapple helping in any other case either.

I was doing it from a water entry above. It looks like for it to work from an air entry, it needs either a wall jump or Morph to reset fall speed. Since we don't yet have a way to represent a water entry, I can just add requirements for one of those two things.

It feels rare to ever see the crab killed fast enough to not need to jump after it, so I rate this very hard.

This one is expert, but since you are practicing it over and over it may be very hard, but higher than plasma

I don't think it works with gravity. Maybe you'd get the 3 crab kills in that case anyway.
It's just unintuitive. You can diagonal shot kill it with or without gravity.

Yeah that was a mistake. I meant to put canFarmWhileShooting on the whole thing, probably got distracted looking up the crouch jump helper. I can refine the difficulty by the weapon type like you suggest

Now that there are 2 crabs, at least grapple should be added as a farm weapon. Jumping to the right loses a lot of time, which is why grapple is so strong. And with Gravity you would use a different farm strat.
