New trailer proved it's possible to spawn them on our ships. But it will be limited only to electric type with new megalodon. Why just not create some totally new random sea encounter, when a bunch of ocean crawlers spawn on your ship? I don't want to sound as an armchair dev, but with what is already done, it should be very easy to implement. I think, we really need new type of random sea encounter besides Kraken, Megalodon and Skeleton Ship.
Ocean Crawler's random encounter in the Sea
New trailer proved it's possible to spawn them on our ships.
YES! Much like when Skeleton ships were introduced, first they were just Fleets. After some time they became part of random encounters.
I like to see some special "Ship Wrecks" where once your ship anchors or enters the 'foam' Your anchor is locked by magic or chained :P and they jump your ship. If you dont hurry and defeat the crawlers and remove the chains, your ship gets instant sunk

I do enjoy the idea of training people about how to deal with player boarding your ship with skeleton and ocean crawler because the fact that, it is a problem and is most problematic for newer player and having someone on your ship stealing you supplies and kill you or them not dying well your ship sinks is a learning curb that you can really learn without losing all of your loot, so like technical that what the new meg are doing because they are at least two type of ship battle the attack and boarding or the attack and light on fire and explode.
having some type of new/updated encounter help you deal with boarder would be a nice addition for sure

Make it a unlockable voyage one you need to unlock say after lvl75 or so
By then…. Of course it all balanced by crew size.
Yeah I was gonna say like Pirate Legend exclusive or at least level 25 or 30 in three trading companies (of their choice of course).
For example, big red crawler should be able to break some ship components (masts, capstan) with his melee attack, so you must be careful with fighting it.
That would definitely be a cool idea! As much as I prefer Skeletons and Phantoms to Ocean Crawlers, I think they are grossly underutilised, and I think this would add a new challenge that would be a unique and interesting encounter to fine and battle across the Sea of Thieves! The thought about the Crabs breaking ship components would be a pretty cool idea! Maybe the green Clams could dig into the ground like normal and ‘phase’ down into a lower deck? That might be cool!
Yep. I like your idea about clipping to lower deck.
Btw, as you mentioned Phantoms, there also could be some haunting encounter, when they spawn on your ship at night, but that's another discussion.
