Nightmare Phase Claws

Quickstart

Craft the claws at a crafting table, then select them in your hotbar and attack with your usual attack control. They deal 7 damage. Be ready for a drawback: when you take non-magic damage while the claws are selected, you start bleeding.

Overview

Nightmare Phase Claws are a hand-held melee weapon with 450 durability. They can be enchanted as a sword. Despite the name, they have no separate phase ability or wall-passing control.

What It Adds

• One weapon: Nightmare Phase Claws
• A bleeding penalty triggered by taking non-magic damage while the claws are selected

How To Use

Select the claws in your hotbar to wield them, then attack as you would with a sword. No special activation is required.

Crafting And Obtaining

Craft one pair at a crafting table using 3 iron nuggets across the top row, 3 leather across the middle row, and 1 leather in the center of the bottom row. The recipe unlocks when you have an iron nugget and leather.

Abilities And Mechanics

• Melee damage: 7.
• Durability: 450; using the weapon wears it down.
• Bleeding: If you take non-magic damage while the claws are selected, you take 1 damage point (half a heart) every second for 5 seconds, for up to 5 damage points total.
• Bleeding does not restart or refresh while it is already active. It continues even if you switch away from the claws.

Progression And Strategy

The recipe uses common materials, so try the weapon early and keep an eye on your health when wielding it. Its damage comes with a real risk: avoid taking hits while it is selected, especially when you are already low on health.
