    • If a creature critically succeeds on a check to Trip the giant crab, the crab is flipped over onto its back in addition to the usual effects. A giant crab that is flipped onto its back has a particularly hard time defending itself; instead of taking the normal –2 circumstance penalty to AC for being flat-footed, it takes a –4 circumstance penalty to AC.
