The '''claw breaker''' (formerly '''ClawBeast''') is a monster in the game ''[[Dragon Quest VII]]''. It can be found in the [[Dark Cloud Maze]] in the past, the [[Labres]] region in the past, and the [[Lake Altar Cave]] in Disc 2. It is also one of the forms that a [[WonderEgg]] will become when it hatches.
A much stronger Claw breaker is faced as a boss in the [[Temple Palace]] during the quest to awaken the [[Earth Spirit]]. Despite its high HP, it should not pose a significant threat to a sufficiently leveled party. [[Sa'id]] takes part in the battle as an ally. In the English translation of the Nintendo 3DS version, the boss version of the monster is labeled as a Nail blighter when it is clearly a Claw breaker.
