The '''beast claws''' are a recurring set of claws in the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' series. They are a powerful, high-level weapon designed for martial artists and other brawlers. Originally plain can-openers with no special traits, they now inflict more damage to creatures in the [[Beast family]] as of the ninth game.

==={{DQ3}} remake===

The beast claws have an attack bonus of +95 and can only be equipped by [[Martial Artist]]s and [[Thief|Thieves]]. They are the strongest set of claws in the game and only appear in remake versions. The beast claws can be found in [[Theddon]] underneath the cross, but only after receiving the first riddle from the riddle master in [[Cloudsgate Citadel (bonus dungeon)|Cloudsgate Citadel]]. They can be sold for 412 gold, but it is not recommended to do so as there is only one set in the game. Martial artists can equip the more powerful [[Destructiball]], but doing so will remove their ability to deal [[Critical Hit]]s, and by the time the player obtains the claws their rate will easily be over 1/6th. Players who prefer to gamble on decisive blows arm their artists with the claws instead, and leave the wrecking ball to the other vocations.

The beast claws have an attack bonus of +95 and a style bonus of +25. They can only be equipped by [[Ruff]] and are dropped by [[Gnuriel]]s at a rate of 1/128. They can be sold for 275 gold.

==='{{DQ8}} 3DS===

The beast claw has an attack bonus of +81 and inflicts 1.3 times damage on members of the Beast family. It only appear in the 3DS version and can be equipped by [[Morrie]]. The beast claw is dropped by [[Sir Leopold]]. It can be upgraded into the beast talon by combining it with an [[ethereal stone]] in the [[Alchemy Pot]].
