Break a crystal with Barblings without throwing them
To efficiently gather resources from crystals, it’s recommended to bring a sufficient number of Barblings with you. Position yourself on the opposite side of the crystal and utilize the strong vacuum ability to pull the Barblings towards you. If executed correctly, the crystal will either break immediately or display signs of damage, depending on its size. This technique allows for effective extraction of resources from crystals.
