Claws are a scrapped weapon type.

Claws were dexterity-based weapons (rather than being a dexterity/intelligence weapon like in the first game) and were originally intended to be the main weapon for the Huntress.

Claws had a weapon range of 1.1 metres.

Tooltip

Claws are One-Handed Melee weapons that require Dexterity to equip. Claws can be Dual Wielded with another Claw, but cannot be combined with other equipped items in the off hand.

Claw Attacks are commonly fast and cause Bleeding.
