Orichalcum Claws are a weapon appearing in [[Dragon Quest IX]] as an alchemy recipe. They are made by alchemising a set of [[Combusticlaws]], 2 lumps of [[Orichalcum]], and 2 [[Hephaestus' Flame]]s. They grant an impressive 138 [[Attack]] when equipped, and can be sold for 28,000 coins. The Orichalcum Claws are extremely powerful, even beating the rare [[Beastmaster Claws]]. They are only beaten by the [[Dragonlord Claws]] and their upgrades, and will usually remain on the wielder for a great deal of time.
