Slash all enemies using a claw of fire, dealing a small amount of damage, piercing 1 defense, and burning them for 2 turns.

Overview[]

Fire Claw is one of 10 possible unique skills that can be obtained from Frogidi's Fortunes.
Fire Claw has 17 alternative colors which changes the color of the flame and the claw trail afterwards. Orange is not a obtainable color due to it being the default variant.

The timing for the Action Command is about moment the player swings their right arm to the left.
Succeeding the Action Command performs a 'Critical!' hit, increasing the amount of POWDamage dealt by 1.

Usage[]

Fire Claw deals a low amount of POWDamage to all enemies in addition to having DEF1 Defense piercing as well as BurnBurn-1.

Compared to the other SP1 SP cost Frogidi's Fortune skills: Bomb Toss and Lightning Spear, Fire Claw deals equal amounts of POWDamage to each enemy rather than the more focused POWDamage from both the other two skills.

Fire Claw is also comparable to the Tough Poison Spray, which inflicts similar POWDamage as well as a damage-over-time status and both costing SP1 SP. The main difference is the Poison Spray's PoisonPoison status, but a lack of DEFDefense piercing.

The most useful property of Fire Claw would be its BurnBurn-1 status, as it results in dealing POW2 Damage more in total. Due to the nature of the BurnBurn status, Fire Claw is more useful in drawn out fights like CorruptionCorruption 2 or 3 enemies and bosses, however its use is limited because of its low POWDamage. This property is overshadowed by Fiery Explosion, dealing more POWDamage from the initial attack and has a 3 Turn BurnBurn-1 status instead, though it costs SP3 SP. This makes Fire Claw more or less a supplement when SP3 SP cannot be afforded or if Fiery Explosion is overkill for the situation. Keep in mind that the BurnBurn status inflicted by both does not stack on its duration nor reset it.

Against CorruptionCorruption 1 & 2 enemies, the enemy will all have at least DEF1 Defense, which Fire Claw pierces through.

Against CorruptionCorruption 3 enemies, the enemy will all have at least DEF3 Defense, rendering Fire Claw fully blocked unless the POWDamage is increased.

Overall, Fire Claw is mostly outshined by Fiery Explosion, but still useful as a weak clean-up tool on low HPHP enemies.

Notes[]

  • The BurnBurn status will not be inflicted if no POWDamage was dealt.
  • Golems and Bedrock enemies are immune to the BurnBurn status.

Trivia[]

  • Fire Claw can be used by CorruptionCorruption 2+ Wraiths and Dwellers.
  • Fire Claw's past name is "Flame Powder".
