• [Shadow Claws] comes with No Polarity Slots. Because of this, the builds on this Exalted Weapon will require 1 Umbra Forma with 3 Normal Forma or 5 - 6 Normal Forma.

• [Shadow Claws] excels in Large Crowd Slaughter against all factions in High Leveled Areas.

Advantages Vs. Disadvantages

Advantages:

• Very High Critical Chance at 38%

• High Critical Multiplier at 2.6x

• High Status Chance at 24%

Disadvantages:

• Short Range at 1.50 meters

Builds

Corpus | Tested up to Level 155

The Element for the [Shadow Claws] against the Corpus will be Toxin. Toxin deals 50% base damage per second over 6 seconds and stacks indefinitely with each instance having its own timer. The Build's Flex Slots are [Gladiator Might] or [Melee Prowess] and is great into late game with either killing off enemies with Slash or Toxin Procs. Toxin is more Beneficial, so that is what the player will really want. However, it some circumstances, Slash can be helpful for just getting rid of their shields a bit faster or to deal with Alloy Armored enemies.

Corrupted & Grineer | Tested up to Level 155

The Element for the Shadow Claws against the Corrupted and Grineer will be Viral/Slash. Viral amplifies health damage by 100% for 6 seconds and stacks up to 10 times for a total of 325%. Meanwhile, Slash's status effect is Bleed and after 1 second it deals 35% of the base damage per second for 6 seconds, which bypasses armor. The Build's Flex Slot is [Carnis Stinger] and works very well into late game with the help of [Carnis Stinger] not only giving increased Slash proc chance, but also to further increase the Status Chance of Shadow's Claws.

Infested | Tested up to Level 155

Viral/Heat:

Gas:

The Elements for the Shadow Claws against the Infested will be Viral/Heat or Gas. Gas deals 50% base damage per second for 6 seconds in a 3 meter radius and stacks up to 10 times to a total of 6 meters. The Build's Flex Slots are Volcanic Edge or Primed Smite Infested for the Viral/Heat Build and Gladiator Might for the Gas Build and works very well into late game with Gas coming out on top. Viral/Heat is a good Alternative if a player just feels like using it. However, Gas clouds can easily nuke enemies and is pretty strong into the Steel Path.

Heavy Attack Builds

• Corpus: Toxin | 4 Forma | Tested up to Level 155
  

• Corrupted & Grineer: Viral | 4 Forma | Tested up to Level 155
  

• Infested: Corrosive | 4 Forma | Tested up to Level 155
  

The Elements for the [Shadow Claws] with the Heavy Attack Build Set will follow Toxin for the Corpus, Viral for the Corrupted and Grineer, and Corrosive for the Infested. The Flex Slot for the Corpus will be [Gladiator Might] and the other Build's Flex Slots will be their Smite Faction Mod. These Builds are for those who want to utilize the one shot capabilities of the Shadow Claw's Heavy Attack. These Builds can be taken anywhere, just like the Normal Faction Builds and completely demolish those who stand in your path. However, the weapon ends up dealing with Smaller Crowds of enemies or Single Targets, rather than Medium Crowds.
