Post-Crumpocalyptic

 is an optional mission in Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep. Adventurers should never set forth on an expedition to go fighting on an empty stomach, and Tina's taste for crumpets ensures that the travel rations of heroes are full of wholesome, buttery nutrition.

Strategy
This mission starts as a simple retrieval run through Flamerock Refuge and can be done in conjunction with other town missions. The crumpet locations roughly coincide with places in the story, so provided that a return trip to the Unassuming Docks is conducted before proceeding into The Forest, the crumpets can be collected as the story progresses.

The first crumpet in Flamerock Refuge is dug out of a half-buried skeleton, and the second plate of crumpets is resting on a crate also concealing a relatively weak Midget Skeleton. The third is under a house in Streetwise Warfs and the only way to reach it is a precarious tightrope walk along a steel cable.

The next crumpet hunt is in the Unassuming Docks where various skeletons are staged in the vicinity of every crumpet find. The closest crumpet to Flamerock Refuge is on a raised position on a house in the Hamlet of Swift Passing Through. It can be accessed by dropping down from the rocks above onto the roof, before dropping down to the platform. Skeletons, including Mister Boney Pants Guy, line the way to the second crumpet find on a crate in the Sandbar of Infrequent Walks. A nearby door opens for a skeleton ambush, and crumpet hunters may be surprised by the sight of a badass skeleton bearing down on them along the docks. The final plate of crumpets in the area is through two battles between solitary Rock Golems and packs of skeletons in the Forlorn Ruins. The first confrontation can be largely bypassed at a sprint, although the second is near the plate and a dice chest that are easier to investigate with all foes vanquished.

The Forest is the third area scoured for crumpets, and Old Glenn the Blacksmith's Cottage is the site of another crumpet retrieval, this time in a bucket that must be winched up from the well. Treants are the primary inhabitants of the cottage grounds. Another plate of crumpets can be found with a corpse in a hollow at Blood Tree Camp. This is also a spider lair, and the spiders will be immediately hostile to anyone daring to reach the plate. More crumpets can be found in a gibbet in an area heavily populated with orcs. Shooting the connection between the frame and the supporting cable will bring down the gibbet, and bring the crumpet within reach.

More crumpets lie scattered about the Mines of Avarice. One on a suspended platform at Wizard's Crossing can be accessed by dropping down onto it from the ledge above. Another is in a mine cart that will run off down the slope on its rails when approached. Although the location of the crumpet is moved significantly, the retrieval remains a simple matter of plucking it out of the cart.

The Lair of Infinite Agony has more crumpets to find. The first is on a protrusion half way up the first elevator shaft to Crawler Hall near the start of the level. To reach it requires first activating the elevator platform, and then either dropping onto the ledge from above or snatching the crumpets in transit while the platform moves past. The second is on a raised ledge in Death Quencher Well, which can be accessed simply by ascending a ladder up to it. The final plate of crumpets are in the deep shaft at Wailer Drop. This is near the end of the level and accessed more expediently from Dragon Keep, so players may wish to open access to Dragon Keep before going back for the crumpets. The crumpets are again positioned precariously on a ledge, and require a careful drop from above to reach.

Trivia

 * The name of the mission is a throwback to a line of dialogue spoken by Tina during You Are Cordially Invited: Party Prep where Tina mentions a "crumpocalypse."
 * During the mission, Tina inadvertently indicates that she has survived much of the time since her parents' deaths by eating crumpets.
