Everything is Crab Ruminant Guide

Gains progress from Prey affinity.

Version notes

Where can I see whether Ruminant is active or on cooldown?

Version 1.1 added a Ruminant icon below the health bar to show its active and cooldown states. Official 1.1 notes

Does poison still reset Ruminant’s cooldown after 1.1?

The same update stopped poison from resetting Ruminant’s cooldown. Official 1.1 notes

Use the icon to distinguish a waiting period from an active effect. The poison fix does not describe poison immunity or remove the need to manage incoming damage.

Practical use

Review how consistently your choices remain in Prey before valuing its progress support. If the useful offers are pulling the build elsewhere, compare the cost of keeping that affinity solely for the reward.
