The '''Dragon Claw''' is a [[weapon]] in [[Heretic]]. It appears to be a glove made of a dragon's skin and claws, and takes [[Claw Orb]]s as ammo. The weapon appears first in [[E1M2: The Dungeons (Heretic)|E1M2: The Dungeons]] where it is obtainable via a secret area. Since it is the final one of the few weapons found in the shareware episode, it can be discovered on every later level as well, [[E1M4: The Guard Tower]] being the first map where the weapon lies in a non-secret area. The Dragon Claw rapid-fires [[hitscan]] energy bolts. Each bolt deals 4-32 damage. Single shots have perfect accuracy while continued firing is less accurate. When enhanced by a [[Tome of Power]], its firing rate is slower and each shot costs 5 orbs instead of just one, but when a shot hits something, it splits into a ring of eight [[projectile]] spiked balls that tear through [[enemies]]. The balls deal 0-1 damage every tic they are inside an [[Iron Lich]], and 1-8 damage every tic they are inside any other enemy; this makes the weapon very effective against large groups of non-Lich enemies. This weapon is always effective on [[Ghosts (Heretic)|ghosts]]. It is also the most advanced weapon found in Heretic's first episode. Maximum capacity is 200 shots, or 400 with the [[Bag of Holding]].
