As a crew of Skyfarers, the main cast of Granblue Fantasy: Relink are no strangers to treasures and you won’t be either. Across the game’s main story, various side quests, hidden special treasure chests and more, there are plenty of bountiful rewards to obtain and secrets to find in the Zegagrande Skydown. However, the main collectables in GBF Relink are Wee Pincers, small red hermit crabs hiding in various nooks and crannies across the game’s many chapters. These illusive little creatures may not seem like much at first but, collect all of them, and you’ll earn yourself some of the best Sigils this game has to offer.
Here’s where to find all Wee Pincer locations in Granblue Fantasy: Relink.

How to Replay Chapters in Granblue Fantasy Relink
First and foremost, Wee Pincers only appear in Chapters, not in quests or town. Each Chapter has a different number of Pincers and, if you miss them, you won’t be able to return to get them until much later on in the game. You cannot replay story chapters of your own volition, at least, not until you’ve already beaten the game once.
Once you complete the Final Chapter for the first time and roll credits, you’ll be sent back to Folca with a bunch of new mechanics and systems unlocked. One of those new systems is Chapter Select which lets you repay any Chapter you’ve already completed for difficulty or collectable finding purposes.
Additionally, it’s worth mentioning that to find all 45 Wee Pincers, you will need to make some significant progress through GBF Relink’s last major story chapter, Chapter 0: Skybound Heart. Even if you find all the Wee Pincers between the Prologue and the Final Chapter, you’ll be four short, which can all be found within the first two new missions in Skybound Heart. As such, strap in for the long haul as Chapter 0 is when the game cranks up the difficulty.
With that out of the way, here’s where to find all the Wee Pincers in Granblue Fantasy: Relink.
All Wee Pincer Locations in Granblue Fantasy Relink
All Wee Pincer Locations in Chapter 1
Chapter 1 Wee Pincer Location
There is 1 Wee Pincer in Granblue Fantasy: Relink Chapter 1, The Western Frontier, and it’s really easy to obtain. If you’re using Chapter Select to find our little crab friend, begin at Free Fall.
As soon as Gran or Djeeta awakes from their plunge off the Grandcypher, they’ll be stuck in a large clearing the Sundapple Grove. Fortunately, the Wee Pincer is already close at hand. Start moving down the main path towards Vyrm but keep an eye out to the right side of the clearing: you should notice a set of mossy platforms that stack on top of each other. Climb the platforms and, at the top, will be the first Wee Pincer.
All Wee Pincer Locations in Chapter 2
Chapter 2 Wee Pincer 1 Location
Granblue Fantasy: Relink Chapter 2, Tempest on the Horizon, is one of the longer missions with the most Wee Pincers to find. In total, Chapter 2 is housing 7 Wee Pincers that you must go out and find amongst the ruins of Tempeal.
After arriving in Tempeal, one of the first things that will happen is that you’ll be taught about Hollowed Ground, the floating green crystals which regenerate your health. This first instance of Hollowed Ground is right next to a tunnel entrance and, to the left of that entrance, is the first Wee Pincer of Chapter 2.
Chapter 2 Wee Pincer 2 Location
The second Pincer is also close by. Go through the tunnel into the Hills but, before going down to free the villages being hounded by goblins, go left once you exit. There are several platforms made out of splintered wood overhanging the edge of the island and one of these platforms has the next Wee Pincer on it.
Chapter 2 Wee Pincer 3 Location
After this, continue through the mission until you’ve beaten this first set of goblins and freed the villages they were terrorising. You’ll enter a cave to the next major area of the chapter but, before you do, look right after entering the cave. The next Wee Pincer will be sitting between two wooden fences, overlooking the skies of Zegagrande.
Chapter 2 Wee Pincer 4 Location
The next part of the mission tasks you with helping two sets of villages and, if you want to find the fourth Wee Pincer, focus on saving the windmill settlement, first. Once you reach the burning town, deal with the goblins and then look at the burnt patches of dirt at the back of town. Next to a burning house, you’ll find the next Wee Pincer sitting in front of a drying rack.
Chapter 2 Wee Pincer 5 Location
From the windmill settlement, head south past the central windmill until you stumble across a small cluster of ruins. These ruins will also be occupied by goblins. After dispatching them, look for a large white rock sticking out from the cliffside, one covered in many boxes. Destroying these boxes will reveal the fifth Wee Pincer hiding underneath them.
Chapter 2 Wee Pincer 6 Location
The final two Wee Pincers in Chapter 2 are in the goblin’s makeshift gladiatorial arena so wrap up all your efforts at the settlements, save the villagers and then move on once you’re ready. As soon as you load into the new area leading up to the goblin, look to your left and destroy any debris that you can see there. Just like with the last Wee Pincer, you’ll find another one tucked away beneath all the rubbish.
Chapter 2 Wee Pincer 7 Location
Lastly, continue down the path past Siero until you come to the entrance of the goblin’s gladiator pit. Before you leap down and partake in glorious combat, wander over to the left and you’ll find that the last Chapter 2 Wee Pincer is waiting in the wings.
All Wee Pincer Locations in Chapter 3
There are a total of 3 Wee Pincers in Relink’s Chapter 3, Creations of the Star. This chapter sees the crew of the Grapcypher face down the Primal God Furycane as they galavant through the vast mines of Tempeal. As such, expect to be searching a lot of dark corners for these crabs.
Chapter 3 Wee Pincer 1 Location
To find the first Chapter 3 Wee Pincer, begin the chapter and continue until you first see Furycane, causing your party to slow walk against the mighty gusts. As this is happening, look for a set of wooden scaffolds hidden off to your left. Once the wind dies down, wander on over, peer behind the scaffold and the fist Wee Pincer will be yours to keep.
- Behind the Scaffold
- Chapter 3 Wee Pincer 1 Location
Chapter 3 Wee Pincer 2 Location
Next, for the second Wee Pincer, keep progressing through the mines until you need to pull a lever to lower a bridge. This will lead to a small combat area with goblins, as well as a pretty scenic look at Furycane’s altar. However, if you take a look underneath the bridge you need to go up to continue the mission, you should find the second Wee Pincer sitting precariously on the edge of the broken wooden floor.
Chapter 3 Wee Pincer 3 Location
For the final Wee Pincer in Granblue Fantasy Relink Chapter 3, continue until your party is forced into a smaller section of the mines by Furycane’s rampage. In the surrounding area will be a few chests, including a sparkly Shrouded Treasure. Right next to that Shrouded Treasure will be the last Wee Pincer.
All Wee Pincer Locations in Chapter 4
Chapter 4 Wee Pincer Location
Skies Forever Blue is Chapter 4 of Granblue Fantasy Relink and, like Chapter 1, it only has a single Wee Pincer for us to collect. To nab it, proceed through the mission as usual until you take out the first Church of Avia ship.
After the ship is taken down, it’ll ram you and Avia’s soldiers will board the Grancypher, forcing you to board their battered vessel in retaliation. Once you’ve ascended the ramp onto their ship, ignore everything else, make your way to the other side of the deck and then turn left. Behind a large stack of boxes will be the only Wee Pincer in Chapter 4.
- Hiding in the Back of the Ship
- Chapter 4 Wee Pincer Location
All Wee Pincer Locations in Chapter 5
In Chapter 5 of Granblue Fantasy: Relink, Shadows in the Snowscape, the Grandcypher Crew rides to Leatagne Island in search of Lyria, as well as the 6 Wee Pincers trapped within this icy place.
Chapter 5 Wee Pincer 1 Location
The first Wee Pincer in this chapter can be found after your first encounter with the icy skeletons who call Leatagne Island their home. Once you’ve beaten back the hoard of bones, look for a spikey outcropping of rock on the edge of the map, which you can climb to find the first Wee Pincer.
Chapter 5 Wee Pincer 2 Location
The next Wee Pincer is a bit further ahead. From the first Wee Pincer in Chapter 5, turn around and continue up the main road until you see another path higher up that you can jump to. Then, you’ll find this Wee Pincer snuggled into a crook on the snowy path leading towards the main bridge.
Chapter 5 Wee Pincer 3 Location
The third Wee Pincer is right before the bridge where you encounter Maglielle. There are two paths down to the bridge from the previous area, with one being a more straightforward path and the other being a set of platforms that you can jump to. Take the latter where, after leaping down, you’ll find the next Wee Pincer pushed against the rocks.
Chapter 5 Wee Pincer 4 Location
As for the fourth Wee Pincer, it’s in an interesting spot. After meeting Historiath for the first time, you’ll be asked to guard her from oncoming monsters as she tries to unseal the way forward. If you take a peek around this small arena, there will be a large icy archway close by. Climb this arch and, at the top overseeing the world, will be the Wee Pincer.
Chapter 5 Wee Pincer 5 Location
Once Historiath has opened the way forward, continue until you see the stone bridge close by. Instead of crossing it, have a peek around the right side for a large section of sharp rocks. The fifth Wee Pincer will be at the top, outlined by the beautiful ice castle in the background.
Chapter 5 Wee Pincer 6 Location
Finally, to locate the last Wee Pincer in Chapter 5, enter the icy castle containing the Managarmr fight. Before ascending the stairs to the fight itself, you’ll find a room of chests and goodies frozen beneath the staircase in a treasury. Break these crystals open with your attacks and you’ll be able to claim a good handful of treasures, including the last Wee Pincer who’s hiding inside an empty chest.
All Wee Pincer Locations in Chapter 6
In Search of Hope, Chapter 6 of Granblue Fantasy Relink, is likely going to be the most frustrating chapter when it comes to collecting Wee Pincers. That’s mainly because it’s set on Dahli Island, a massive, expansive desert which is very good at hiding everything from treasure to enemies to little crabs. In total, there are 9 Wee Pincers in Chapter 6 to find, making it the most Pincer-rich chapter in the whole game.
Chapter 6 Wee Pincer 1 Location
First things first, there are three Wee Pincers available before the sand slide. The first one is available as soon as you spawn on Dahli Island. When your feet touch down on the sand, look for a large hollow log on the right side of the starting area. This log will have the first Wee Pincer inside.
Chapter 6 Wee Pincer 2 Location
As for the second, continue sliding down the dunes until you come across the roaming pack of wolves. Take them out and look around for a large stone archway somewhere close by. To find the second Wee Pincer, get to the top of that archway and you’ll find it sitting atop the slabs.
- The Opulent Arch
- Chapter 6 Wee Pincer 2 Location
Chapter 6 Wee Pincer 3 Location
The last Wee Pincer in Chapter 6’s first area is within the temple which leads to the sandy slip-and-slide. After entering the temple hug the left-hand side until you can slip into a small side path. From there, hop up the broken ruins and the next Wee Pincer will be waiting for you at the top.
- Secret Path in the Temple
- Chapter 6 Wee Pincer 3 Location
Chapter 6 Wee Pincer 4 Location
Here’s where things get tricky. The next 6 Wee Pincers are all in the massive open desert section of Dahli Island which can make tracking them down a real cchore. Fortunately, the fourth one is relatively easy to find. After unlocking the first seal and unlocking access to the main part of Dahli Island, head straight forward and scale the large bit of rubble directly in front of the first seal to find the next Wee Pincer.
Chapter 6 Wee Pincer 5 Location
From here on out, we recommend moving around the desert in a clockwise fashion, which means visiting the seal guarded by the Rock Golem, first. On your way to this seal, keep an eye out for several large bits of debris lodged in the sand. At the top of one of these ruins – one that is within eyeshot of Zathba’s ship – is the next Wee Pincer.
Chapter 6 Wee Pincer 6 Location
Wee Pincer 6 is one of the cruellest Pincers in the entire game. To find it, head for the massive ruined tower in the back half of the desert, the one with the seal being guarded by the massive undead skeleton. Once you arrive at the seal, go left and start hugging the wall looking for little gaps and crevices. Eventually, after some searching, you’ll find the Wee Pincher in a tiny alcove at the left-most section of the broken wall.
- Deep in the Wall
- Chapter 6 Wee Pincer 6 Location
Chapter 6 Wee Pincer 7 Location
To find the seventh Wee Pincher of Chapter 6, begin once more at the tower seal. Then, start making your way back to the vault at the centre of the map. This will take you through some more elaborate ruins and buildings, all of which are guarded by more skeletal foes. What you need to be on the lookout for is a large pillar jutting out of the sand, one which has the next Wee Pincer on top of it. You’ll need to do some pretty nifty jumping to reach it.
Chapter 6 Wee Pincer 8 Location
To easily find the eighth Wee Pincer, make your way to the vault in the centre of the map. Once you’re there, look for the specific part of the ruins circled below in the images. This piece of rubble is essentially a massive right angle and, below the crumbling upper levels, will be the next Wee Pincer.
- Eighth Pincer’s Hiding Spot
- Chapter 6 Wee Pincer 8 Location
Chapter 6 Wee Pincer 9 Location
The final Wee Pincer in this area is close to the seal being guarded by the Griffin. Once you’re there, try and look for a section of the ravine with an outstretched rocky platform beneath the main cliff face. On this outcropping is the last Wee Pincer of Chapter 6.
- The Rocky Platform
- Chapter 6 Wee Pincer 9 Location
All Wee Pincer Locations in Chapter 7
Chapter 7, Warning Signs, is a pretty fast chapter, making it easy to miss the 3 Wee Pincers scattered around the place. Especially when two of them are hidden within the chapter’s timed running sequence: fail to find them before the lava overtakes their hiding spot and you’ll have to go again.
Chapter 7 Wee Pincer 1 Location
After landing on Phondam, you can find the first Wee Pincer relatively easily. Simply keep walking on the golden path until you arrive at the small lava stream separating your path from the one on the other side. On the left side of this stream is a large rock which has the first Wee Pincer perched on top.
Chapter 7 Wee Pincer 2 Location
The second Wee Pincer in Chapter 7 can be found right after you meet Id for the first time. After Id repels Vulkan Bolla, you must chase after them to avoid losing Lyria and to stop yourself from being burned by lava. However, as soon as you jump off the cliff where Id was standing turn around and you’ll find the second Wee Pincer cowering beneath the cliff face.
Chapter 7 Wee Pincer 3 Location
As we mentioned before, the last Wee Pincer is also in this timed running sequence. This time, you’ll need to wait until you’ve smashed up Volka Bulla a bit, after which it’ll begin flinging lava waves at you during the next chase. After hiding behind three or four pieces of cover, look to the left side of the path where you should spot a small dip to a lower level where the third Wee Pincer in Chapter 7 is hiding: be quick collecting it because this path will get covered in lava really fast.
- The Hidden Outcrop
- Chapter 7 Wee Pincer 3 Location
All Wee Pincer Locations in Chapter 8
In Chapter 8 of Granblue Fantasy: Relink, which is also called Relink, 5 Wee Pincers are hiding in the rubble of Seedhollow Castle.
Chapter 8 Wee Pincer 1 Location
The first Wee Pincer in this chapter is very early on in the mission. After entering Seedhollow Castle, you’ll have to walk through the Seedhollow garrison preparing themselves for battle against the Church of Avia. There are several areas of the room segmented off by chairs or weapon racks and, before exiting this part of the area, look for a section filled with chairs on the left side of the room. Cowering underneath one of these luxurious chairs will be the Wee Pincer.
Chapter 8 Wee Pincer 2 Location
Fortunately, the next Wee Pincer is also really close. After you’re done poking around in the opening halls of Seedhollow Castle, you can make your way outside to face the Church of Avia. However, before going to confront them, make sure to grab the second Wee Pincer, who is just chilling on the right side of the path.
Chapter 8 Wee Pincer 3 Location
After beating back Avia’s troops, you and your party will proceed deeper into the castle. Soon after, the path will split, with the right path taking you towards progress and the left path taking you closer towards your real prize: the third Wee Pincer, who is hiding in the dark near some rubble.
Chapter 8 Wee Pincer 4 Location
From here, keep going until you get to the set piece with the Tayu’itar. Once you’ve mucked about with your own Astral death machine, you’ll need to let Rolan remove a piece of debris to proceed but, before you do, explore the arena you fought the Tayu’itars in. The ominous-looking Omen Stone nearby should be easy to spot and, with it, will be the next Wee Pincer sitting a short distance away on some broken rubble.
Chapter 8 Wee Pincer 5 Location
The last Wee Pincer in Chapter 5 of Granblue Fantasy Relink is an easy one to grab. Just before your final clash with Id, you’ll enter a lovely room within the depths of Seedhollow Castle with an ostentatious fountain in the middle. Enjoying a quick bath within is your last Wee Pincer.
All Wee Pincer Locations in Chapter 9
Opposing Wills, the ninth chapter in Granblue Fantasy: Relink, is hiding a total of 6 Wee Pincers in the murky, decrepit Pillar of Vayoi.
Chapter 9 Wee Pincer 1 Location
The first Wee Pincer is nice and easy to obtain. After spawning into the Pillar, look to your left for the crumbling rubble of an old building. Scaling this rubble will lead you to the top where the first Pincer is waiting for you.
Chapter 9 Wee Pincer 2 Location
As for the second, you need to wait until you’ve defeated Furycane Nihilia. After defeating it, you’ll continue your ascent of the pillar but keep an eye on the left side of the path for a grey treasure chest. Once you’ve spotted it, look around the area just past it to find the next Wee Pincer sitting on the edge of the play area.
Chapter 9 Wee Pincer 3 Location
Similarly, the third Wee Pincer is after the Managarmr Nihilia boss fight. This time, stay focused on the right side of the path where, shortly after exiting Managarmr’s arena, you’ll find a golden treasure chest. Open it and then turn around to see an elevated bit of rubble a short distance away. Climb the rubble and, at the top, will be the next Wee Pincer.
Chapter 9 Wee Pincer 4 Location
The fourth Wee Pincer breaks the mould a bit by being available during the initial sections of Vulkan Bolla Nihilia fight. After entering the chamber containing Vulkan, it will rapidly begin filling with purple lava that you need to run away from, just like your initial fight. The path will split in two and, at this point, you should take the longer left path because the next Wee Pincer will be waiting in the middle of it. Just like in Chapter 7, if you don’t grab it soon enough, the lava will encompass it and you’ll need to die to try again.
Chapter 9 Wee Pincer 5 Location
Next is the fifth Wee Pincer which is available after defeating Vulkan Bolla Nihilia. As soon as the false Primal God is defeated, turn around from the path and back towards Vulkan’s boss arena. There, in the middle of the floating platform, will be the Wee Pincer.
Chapter 9 Wee Pincer 6 Location
As luck would have it, the last Wee Pincer for Chapter 9 isn’t far, either. Continue from Vulkan’s arena to the apex of the Pillar but stay on the right. The path you’re on will begin breaking up, with several large chunks floating on the right-hand side that you can jump to. On the second piece of this floating rubble is the last Wee Pincer of the main story.
All Wee Pincer Locations in Chapter 0
Similar to the Prologue, the Final Chapter doesn’t have any Wee Pincers to collect, which means you’ll find the last 4 Wee Pincers in Granblue Fantasy Relink Chapter 0, Skybound Heart. This chapter starts as soon as you finish the main story and roll credits and it’s the most intense chapter yet.
Chapter 0 Wee Pincer 1 Location
The first two are found in Id’s first outing as Folca’s new Mr. Fix It (which is called New Mr. Fix It in Chapter Select). During the mission, you need to find three batches of supplies left behind by one of Folca’s merchants. As you near the second set of supplies, keep an eye out for an exit on the right side of the path. This path will take you to a lone goblin and the first Wee Pincer.
Chapter 0 Wee Pincer 2 Location
As for the second, once you reach the second set of goods and take out the goblins trying to procure them (or run away from something else), look around the area for a set of breakable boxes and crates. As you may expect, the second Wee Pincer is waiting behind them.
Chapter 0 Wee Pincer 3 Location
When it comes to the last two Wee Pincers, they’re available on your return trip to the Pillar of Vayoi (which is Following in Rolan’s Footsteps in the Chapter Select). The first of this pair is available as soon as you enter the Pillar of Vayoi. Once you spawn in, walk on the main path for a few steps, keeping watch on the right side of the path. Soon enough, you should see the distinct crabby shape of our 44th Wee Pincer.
Chapter 0 Wee Pincer 4 Location
Finally, the last Wee Pincer is waiting for you after you defeat the set of Ominous Shadows joined by Dark Gyres. Continue on the main path from that battle until you need to walk through a passage which looks like a massive door. Before walking through it, take a look around near the massive brazier on the right side of the path to find the last Pincer.
All Wee Pincer Rewards in Granblue Fantasy Relink
Finding all 45 Wee Pincers is a required part of reaching 100% completion in Granblue Fantasy: Relink, mainly because they’re required to obtain the trophy Nothing is Impossible! This trophy is for completing all of the game’s Side Quests.
Outside the pond behind the Blacksmith’s forge in Folca is Lil Pince, a young boy who just wants to see as many Wee Pincers as possible. In fact, he has a total of 15 Side Quests dedicated to finding the little critters, with each Quest giving you a different reward – these range from Refinium to Fortitude Crystals to EXP Spellbooks and more.
- Save the Crustaceans | Crabby Resonance Sigil
- Save the Crustaceans Part Deux | Rafale Coin x10
- Save the Crustaceans the Third | Fortitude Shards x10
- Save the Crustaceans Reloaded | Stun Power I Sigil
- Save the Crustaceans Beyond | Fortitude Crystal (S) x2
- Save the Crustaceans Neo | Prism Chip x5
- Save the Crustaceans Returns | Fortitude Crystal (S) x5
- Save the Crustaceans Prime | Standard Refinium x1
- Save the Crustaceans New Dawn | Critical Damage III Sigil
- Save the Crustaceans Chronicles | Fortitude Crystal (M) x1
- Save the Crustaceans Origins | Garrison III Sigil
- Save the Crustaceans Supremacy | Fortitude Crystal (M) x1
- Save the Crustaceans Infinity | Copper Spellbook x1
- Save the Crustaceans Rises | Crabvestment Returns Sigil
- Save the Crustaceans Finale | Golden Crab Statue
The last reward you’ll obtain for finding all 45 Wee Pincers in Granblue Fantasy Relink is the Golden Crab Statue, a Key Item which commemorates your dedication fore Wee Pincer conservation. However, the most important rewards are the two exclusive Sigils Lil Pince gives you for completing Save the Crustaceans and Save the Crustaceans Rises: Crabby Resonance and Crabvestment Returns.
After fetching him his first Wee Pincer, Lil Pince will give you the Crabby Resonance Sigil. This Sigil will give the equipped character a boost to their ATK based on how many Wee Pincers you’ve found: with 1 Pincer rescued, you’ll only get a measly +3 ATK but, find all 45, and you can get upwards of 1000 ATK for free. This is a stupidly strong Sigil at max level, making it a must-have for those planning on taking on the GBF Relink’s tricky endgame quests.
The other major reward is Crabvestment Returns, another Sigil that Lil Pince will give you once you’ve found 41 Wee Pincers. This increases the wearer’s HP by 20% and gives them 10% DMG Cut. Again, this is an incredibly good Sigil which increases your character’s survivability, making it an excellent pairing with the high ATK of Crabby Resonance.
