'''Claws of Guthix''' is a [[Combat spells|combat spell]] in the standard spellbook. Casting it requires 60 [[Magic]] in addition to either a [[Guthix staff]] or a [[Void knight mace]] equipped. The spell is unlocked by completing the [[Mage Arena]] activity; it must be cast 100 times within the arena itself in order to be used anywhere else. Upon a successful hit, Claws of Guthix may lower the target's [[Defence]] by 5%.

By itself, Claws of Guthix has a [[Magic damage|maximum hit]] of 200 [[life points]]. Like the other [[god spell]]s [[Saradomin Strike]] and [[Flames of Zamorak]], the spell [[Charge]] temporarily increases the maximum hit to 300.

However, neither Saradomin Strike nor Flames of Zamorak may be cast with a staff that boosts Magic damage, while the Void Knight Mace increases Magic damage by 10%, increasing Claws of Guthix's maximum hit to 330. With an [[Arcane Stream Necklace]] as well, the total Magic damage boost is 25%, increasing the max hit to 345.

Furthermore, if using a [[Hexcrest]] or [[Full Slayer Helmet]] while on a slayer task with the afformentioned items, the total magic damage boost is 35%, increasing the max hit to 405. The highest hit known to date is 466, which was cast on another player in the [[Duel Arena]] using [[Charge]], a [[Guthix cape]], the [[Void knight mace]], [[Saradomin's hiss]] and [[Robes of subjugation|Subjugation]] boots, gloves and shield.

== Trivia ==
* Previously, if the target's Defence level were reduced or boosted from the normal level, as would be the case after using a [[Defence potion]] or something similar, the Defence level would remain unaffected by the spell. This was corrected on 10 January 2007.
* Before the update that allowed autocasting without a staff, Claws of Guthix was the only god spell that could be autocast, through the use of the Void Knight mace.
