== Overview == | |||
Burrowing Claws allows a creature to destroy a wall within four attacks that successfully [[Penetration|penetrate]]. The penetration bonus is determined by mutation level and is independent of the penetration value used against non-structural objects, which is instead determined by the creature's [[Strength]] bonus. If the creature is wielding a weapon in a hand with {{favilink page|Data:Claw (Burrowing Claws)|plural}}, walls can still be broken within four successful attacks, but the penetration value of the weapon wielded will be used instead. | Burrowing Claws allows a creature to destroy a wall within four attacks that successfully [[Penetration|penetrate]].

Having this mutation grants the player the "Dig" activated ability; this ability is a form of autoact which allows the player to select a tile as a target destination, regardless of distance or visibility. Confirming one's selection will cause the player to move in a straight line to the destination, while automatically attacking and destroying any walls in the way. | |||
