Another Crab’s Treasure is filled with enemies and tough bosses to take down on your journey. Many things are crucial to assist you on the way, such as a good shell and an outfit to match it. However, your primary way of defeating enemies is with your Fork. Eventually, as the enemies get harder, it’ll become less effective. So, you’ll need to upgrade it, and to do that, you must find Stainless Relics. Luckily, we’ve explained how to upgrade your Fork below.

How to Upgrade Your Fork In Another Crab’s Treasure

The Fork can be upgraded at the blacksmith’s shop, located in the Lower Crust area of New Carcinia. It is a city area of the game, and players will be heading here as part of the narrative of Another Crab’s Treasure. When you arrive in the city, look for the Moon Snail checkpoint; the blacksmith’s shop is next to it. After arriving, you must speak to the owner named Hammerhead, and he will decide to help you by upgrading your Fork.

However, in exchange for doing so, he requests that you give him a Stainless Relic. After doing so, your Fork’s attack will be upgraded. This is the only upgrade you can receive for your Fork from Hammerhead. However, it is incredibly beneficial, as it raises your attack damage, allowing you to deal more damage to enemies and bosses.
