The Claws (射爪 Shasou) are a pair of dangerous items worn on each hand. They make up one of the many new weapons introduced in Kid Icarus: Uprising. The Claws are designed to move faster when used in melee attacks, although their reach is the shortest of all weapons.
Attributes
Aside from the Orbitars, the Claws are the only known weapons that automatically come in a pair. Pit wears them over each of his hands, and are very fast at close range. Like the Blade, they are also capable of rapid-fire attacks and charged shots. For their special attack, Pit will spin around very fast whilst the Claws produce an onslaught of whirlwind projectiles that will cut through enemy forces. The names of the different Claw variants are usually inspired by animals.
Variations
As of now, all twelve variations of the Claws have been revealed:

---|---|---|
Tiger Claws |
The basic Claws, which are pictured above. They strike with the precision and speed of a mighty tiger. | File:Claws tiger.png |
Wolf Claws |
A pair of Claws engulfed in flames, that can burn opponents. The Wolf Claws have an unusual trait of being capable of firing guided dash shots. | File:Claws wolf.png |
Brawler Claws |
An oddly clawless version of the Claws shaped like clenched fists. They lack power, but the Brawler Claws are one of the fastest weapons in the game, allowing the user to fire blasts of swinging fists at an incredible speed while also increasing the user's movement speed more than any other weapon in the game. However, they have a very short range. | File:Claws fist.png |
Stealth Claws |
This fourth variation has seemingly transparent blades and is decorated with sun glasses. These Claws fire invisible projectiles and barely make a sound while attacking, but do less melee damage. | |
Beam Claws |
A pair of Claws with blades made from energy. Its projectiles travel faster than those of other Claws and have a range on par with most Bows, but it has no homing ability and does not inflict much melee damage. | File:BeamClaws.jpeg |
Artillery Claws |
A type of Claws with an intimidating and mechanical appearance, with blades shaped like missiles. Unlike most Claws, they have low power in melee combat but excel at long ranges. | |
Raptor Claws |
A seventh variant that appears to fit over the entire hand, resembling the claws of a raptor. They have more powerful melee and ranged attacks, but charge slowly. | |
Hedgehog Claws |
A mechanical-looking set of claws with three spiky needles. Its rate of fire is very high, although the shots themselves do not do much damage. However, they charge quickly and significantly boost its user's speed. | |
Bear Claws |
A pair of claws resembling those of a bear. Although their melee attacks are strong, they are also somewhat slow. Its projectile attacks are also quite strong, but have a short range. | |
Pandora Claws |
A pair of dark claws that have Pandora's eyes and flames on them. It can fire a variety of dark energy shots. Its back dash charge shot is a large non-mobile red projectile that has Pandora's eyes shown on them. It disappears after 1 second. | |
Cancer Claws |
One of the Zodiac Weapons, this pair of claws is inspired by the fourth sign of the Zodiac and resembles a crab's claws. It can be found in a Zodiac Chamber in Chapter 8, hidden behind a group of constellations in the hold of the Space Pirates' ship; falling off the first platform in the room and then walking counterclockwise will allow access to the chamber. | |
Viridi Claws |
A pair of claws with black and red on the blades, and a purple flower. Its continuous fire has good homing ability, while its charge shots can paralyze enemies. |
