Beast claws are one of the newest weapon classes in Elden Ring Shadow of the Urdtree. If you want to get your claws on one of these new weapons, then the earliest (and one of the most powerful) weapon is the Beast Claw. Here’s how to get and use the Beast Claw in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree.
Where to find the Beast Claw in Elden Ring
As I mentioned, this weapon is one of the earliest weapons you can find in Shadow of the Erdtree. From the Gravesite Plains site of grace, head southeast into the forest. Refer to the map we’ve provided for the approximate location. Once there, a roaming NPC named “Logur, the Beast Claw” can be found and slain. You shouldn’t have too much trouble with Logur, his attacks are slow and his health is low– you’ve got this, Tarnished.
How to use the Beast Claw in Elden Ring
Don’t be turned off by its generic name. This weapon has an awesome skill known as Savage Claws. The animation is a bit long but it quickly procs hemorrhage. The claw has both strength and dexterity scaling but it’s much more suitable for dexterity builds with high stamina. If you’re tired of using katanas for your bleed build and want to try out a new DLC weapon, the Beast Claw is an excellent choice.
When it comes to the move set, the Beast Claw has some of the fastest combos that I’ve seen in Elden Ring. One of the unique features of the move set is how many of the attacks leap or lunge at enemies. You can expect enemies to hemorrhage after landing a full combo, just be careful not to let your savage instinct take over.
My favorite attacks are the backstep light and heavy attacks. To do this, backstep (dodge without holding a direction) and then press either the light or heavy attack button. You’ll dodge backward and then quickly lunge back into the fray. This is an excellent attack to use for punishing bosses or sneaking in some bleed buildup between long windup attacks.
