Burning Claws adds Heat and Status Chance to claws, and converts all elemental damage from those claws to Heat. Consider it when a Heat-focused claw setup fits your aim; it excludes the other named elemental-conversion claw mods.
Adding Heat and Status Chance to a companion’s claws.
Converting the claws’ elemental damage to Heat.
Effect and compatibility
At maximum rank, the mod grants +330% Heat and +330% Status Chance and converts all elemental damage from the claws to Heat. It is a Madurai-polarity standard Claws mod, rank 10, base drain 4. It is incompatible with Chilling Claws, Sepsis Claws, and Shocking Claws.
Rank tradeoff
Rank 0 starts at +30% Heat and +30% Status Chance; rank 5 gives +180% to each; rank 10 gives +330% to each. The listed step from rank 9 to 10 costs 15,360 Endo and 741,888 Credits. That last step is a substantial investment for the increase from the preceding rank.
Chilling Claws, Sepsis Claws, and Shocking Claws have matching listed Status Chance and conversion effects for Cold, Toxin, and Electricity, respectively.
Limitations and tradeoffs
Elemental conversion commits the claws to Heat rather than the other named conversion choices.
The highest ranks require sharply more Endo and Credits.
Common mistakes to avoid
Trying to equip it alongside one of the three explicitly incompatible conversion mods.
Treating the listed bonus as final claw damage.
