In-game description

Claw of a great red bear wielded without modification by Red Bear, whose name is lost to madness.

LocationNorthern Nameless Mausoleum

Rauh Base

Starting Site of Grace: Temple Town Ruins

Before you go

  • To enter the Realm of Shadow, defeat Starscourge Radahn and Mohg, Lord of Blood, then touch the withered arm in Mohg's arena at Mohgwyn Palace.
  • Reach Rauh Base through the cave north of Moorth Ruins.
  1. To enter the Realm of Shadow, defeat Starscourge Radahn and Mohg, Lord of Blood, then touch the withered arm in Mohg's arena at Mohgwyn Palace.
  2. From Moorth Ruins grace in Scadu Altus, ride northeast to the small triangular pool. Look for the cave beside a statue of Marika and a Scadutree Fragment.
  3. Enter the cave and follow it past the perfumers to the glowing golden tree. Take the path to its right down into the swamp.
  4. Turn left through the route beneath the rock and continue until you emerge into Rauh Base. Activate Ancient Ruins Base grace ahead.
  5. Follow the valley southwest toward Temple Town Ruins. A bow golem and an axe golem guard the approach; fighting them is optional if you can pass their attacks.
  6. Collect the map beneath the stele near the ruined town. This is the lower valley, not the upper ruins reached through Shadow Keep.
  7. Go to the map monument east of Temple Town Ruins. Look for the sealed spiritspring against the cliff to the east.
  8. Follow the path south-southwest from the spring and break the sealing stone beside the broken wall. Return to the spring and use Torrent to jump onto the higher ledge.
  9. Use the second spiritspring ahead to reach the top of the plateau. Enter Northern Nameless Mausoleum and descend its stairs.
  10. Defeat Red Bear inside Northern Nameless Mausoleum for Red Bear's Claw, Fang Helm and the three Iron Rivet pieces. Pelt of Ralva comes from a separate bear in Scadu Altus.

Notes

  • Requires 20 Strength and 10 Dexterity, and weighs 4. Physical damage strongly favors Strength, with a smaller Dexterity contribution.
  • Two-handing equips its matching claw for the Beast Claw moveset. It is a different class from ordinary Claws and does not need another copy to use both hands.
  • Applies 45 fixed Blood Loss buildup on ordinary full-status contacts. It has no Arcane scaling, so Arcane does not improve that buildup.
  • Red Bear Hunt costs 8 FP per stage. Up to two additional inputs give three stages for 24 FP total, with the last using both claws.
  • The claw swipes leave damaging wind vacuums. Both use weapon attack power, rather than the wind being an independent Faith or Intelligence spell.
  • The claws can apply Blood Loss, while the lingering wind contacts carry no weapon status buildup. The extra visible hits are not all extra bleed applications.
  • Shard of Alexander improves the skill, and repeated contacts can build consecutive-hit bonuses. Godfrey Icon does not apply because it cannot be charged.
  • Pelt of Ralva and Roar Medallion do not improve the claw skill simply because it imitates a bear. Those bonuses have different eligible spell or roar attacks.
  • The broad sequence can keep hitting a nearby enemy, but the recovery and stamina cost grow with each input. It does not make the whole animation invulnerable.
  • Uses Somber Smithing Stones to +10. Its skill and affinity are fixed, and grease or weapon enchantments cannot be applied.
  • Red Bear in Northern Nameless Mausoleum gives the weapon and Iron Rivet outfit. Ralva and Rugalea are separate bear encounters with different rewards.
