The Mandible Claws were a Pre-Hardmode melee weapon that were dropped by Antlions, Antlion Chargers, and Antlion Swarmers. They featured an extremely fast swing speed and very short range, functioned similarly to the Fetid Baghnakhs.

Its best modifier was Legendary.

Tips

  • The Mandible Claws were especially effective against Antlion Chargers; they were able to bring them to a complete stop, allowing the weapon to deal extremely high damage and keep the player safe.
  • The Fungal Symbiote was extremely effective when combined with the Mandible Claws, allowing them to create barrages of mushrooms to damage enemies.
