Manikin Claws · Dark Souls II: Equipment requirements

Using this reference

For Manikin Claws, check the requirements against your current character before comparing bonuses. A requirement tells you whether a recorded condition is met; it does not measure the benefit of equipping the item. Enter your own values in the checker to see the remaining gap for each stat.

Keep requirements and performance separate when comparing alternatives. Two items can be equally accessible but behave differently in a build. The reference does not automatically apply temporary bonuses, class restrictions or special handling rules that are not present in its source fields.

A worked example

The listed Strength requirement for Manikin Claws is 9. At 8, you are one point short; at 9, that requirement is met. Check the other requirements separately—meeting this one does not clear the whole list.
