Climbing Claws are an accessory that allow players to slowly slide down blocks when moving against them in midair. Jumps can also be performed off the sides of blocks. By repeatedly jumping against vertical blocks, they can be scaled. When sliding down, the slide speed can be accelerated using the ▼ Down key. Climbing Claws can be found in surface chests (including Water Chests) and have a 0.44*1/225 (0.44%) chance of being found in Wooden Crates and Pearlwood Crates, and they can also be purchased for 250 from the Skeleton Merchant during a Waxing Crescent.

Climbing Claws function identically to Shoe Spikes, and when both Climbing Claws and Shoe Spikes are equipped, the player can hang from the sides of blocks, sliding down with the ▼ Down key. This effect can also be achieved if the Climbing Claws and Shoe Spikes are combined into the Tiger Climbing Gear at a Tinkerer's Workshop.

Tips

• Its availability very early in the game makes it a useful accessory for mobility, as it allows the player to slowly but surely climb up some walls without needing Rope.
