The Crab Claw is a melee weapon dropped by Crab King. It has four slots that accept all gem types, each gem has a different effect.

Each gem also increases the damage of the claw by 5, to a maximum of 60 damage when four gems are slotted.

The weapon itself has no durability and will never break, but the gems slotted on it will transform into Shaped Gems, each with their own number of uses, and can only be used on the Crab Claw.

This item can be deconstructed using a Deconstruction Staff for 4 Rocks, 1 Cut Stone.
