Power claw

Health item prosthetic.png

A combat-oriented hand replacement consisting of a mechanical hand with a hooked claw on each finger. It cuts deep, and it is strong enough to crush a skull like a hand crushes an egg. The claws can be retracted, making it as useful as a natural hand for non-combat tasks, however its overall ungainliness slows down movement slightly.

Power claws can sometimes be purchased from traders. They can then be installed onto a colonist as replacements for their hands. A power claw can only be installed on a natural arm. If a power claw is installed on a arm which gets replaced with an artificial arm, the claw will be removed and boxed for reuse. A power claw deals 15 damage compared to 6 damage from a fist, and attacks faster. It reduces a hand's efficiency to 92%, slightly reducing manipulation.

When meleeing a target, a colonist with no weapon often switches hands to attack. This means that a colonist with one power claw and one normal fist is less effective than having two claws. A colonist equipped with one or more claws should not wield a melee weapon because they will use the weapon instead of their claws.


When social fighting, colonists will not use the power claw to attack their opponent.
