Description
Originally used to scale walls and trees, these sharp claws swiftly turned into weapons when whoever wielded them was discovered.

The Talons are a melee weapon available in PAYDAY 2, added with the release of the Gage Ninja Pack DLC.

Tips

• Players deal more damage per second with this weapon by attacking as quickly as possible, rather than fully charging attacks.
• If a player wishes for more damage, it is recommended that they get Berserker, Pumping Iron and Bloodthirst Aced from the Brawler skill tree.
• If a player wishes for more knockdown, use Martial Arts Aced.

Trivia

• The Talons were inspired by their real-world equivalents, the Tekko-Kagi. Unlike the Kunai Knife and Okinawan Style Sai, the Tekko-Kagi was primarily a wall-climbing assist that doubles as a weapon and not a reappropriated farming tool. Although by nature it was originally thought of as an enhanced version of the wheat-reaping sickle, the use did not catch on and it was never officially used or considered as such.
• Despite the inventory preview and icon only showing one claw, the actual weapon has the player character wielding two.
