Now I am on the quest that this thread originally startted with, the crabs, scorpion and copper rod. I have a few questions, first when I am just outside the tavern where Joshamee Gibbs and Carver are located and standing next to Scarlett my compass shows the gold circle and the light beam that usually points you to your objective are just outside this courtyard and yet there are no crabs there, no scorpions and surely no navy ship that has a copper rod. Anyone else have this and if so what is this trying to tell me? My quests mention nothing that this seems to be pointing to.
Now, how do you fight crabs? I can stand right on top of them and never able to engage them. I am talking about the crabs on the beach at Tortuga. I have not yet found any other crabs to see if I can fight them.
Where are the scorpions?
And finally, for the copper rod, do I need to sink a ship or board a ship and fight the navy guys hand to hand? If I need to board how do you accomplish this? Do I fire the grapple? I have tried this and it does not seem to give me a way to board. Or, do I leave my ship and swim up to the Navy ship and hit ctrl to board?
Thanks for you help.

You can kill any crabs, I have found that shooting them from the ship is easiest. If they climb aboard, just sail away and they will fall off. I had to kill 15 giant crabs on my last task and that took a while, but it worked. Also if you try to fight a crab with your sword, make sure that you move your mouse so that you have a red circle on it and are standing above it and you will be able to hit it. the scorpions are in the jungle everywhere in tortuga and you have to sink a navy ship to get the copper rod. Now, if anyone knows where i can find a "dread" scorpion, i would be grateful (my next task). good luck.
