Shred

Prerequisites: none Syntax: extend

       retract

With the shred skill, Rippers learn to maximize the power of their racial claws. When extended, the claws are used as primary weapons, instead of a randomly occurring extra attack, and gain a significant damage boost.

Rippers can use the extend command to ready their claws for combat and the retract command to put them away if they want to wield traditional weapons or attend a tea party.

This skill or any skill that lists it as a prerequisite is not available out of class under any circumstances.

Shred allows a Ripper to extend their claws, which are m56 (at hero) non-removable weapons wielded and offhanded by the Ripper.

At hero, shred also provides a +20 HR and +20 DR bonus.
