Venous Claw is a Blood Veil (Armor) in Code Vein. Blood Veils are categorized as both the player's armor and weapon which provides offensive and defensive stats - these can be found inside chests, dropped by enemies and/or bosses, acquired as a reward from completing quests, provided by NPCs, and are sold by Merchants.



An Ogre-type Blood Veil used by the Lost. Low durability but extremely lightweight.

      If you buy the game on Steam now, you currently CAN'T get this Veil without hacking, not through DLC, Deluxe edition or anything.

      HOWEVER, in an extremly awkward twist, as Anonymous somewhat mentions bellow, if you buy the game on G2A, almost all the Code Vein keys from there seems to be Pre-order ones which does give you this veil, (so far I've not run into anyone who bought the game on G2A who hasn't gotten it)

      This results in an very clunky situation where you are "punished" for buying the game through Steam, rather than a 3rd(4th?) party website.

      Found out about this when my brother bought the game on G2A and I bought it on Steam (beacuse I'm paranoid) and he got the veil while I did not.

        So a I got this game on G2A (I know I know, but I need to save all of the money I can) and I have it. I dunno if that's just because it's the deluxe edition but yeah.

        • Anonymous

          This became available for free on PC at some point. Probably because the preorder pack is inaccessible to PC players.

          • If you want a Glass Canon Build, this with Alleviation will allow you to Quick wield a Hanemukuro with Stun or such else, but it will also allow you to Quick wield an Alleviation Assassin's Sickle w/o Final Journey.

              This, Noble Silver, and Ivory Grace are the three 'Quick' Blood Veils of the game. Of the three, Venous Claw will get you through your first placethrough and most of NG1 before you'll need to switch to Noble Silver unless you're a true master at dodging/parrying (in which case, keep using it). However it's drain attack is by far the best in the entire game and can virtually one-shot almost all the smaller enemies in a single backstab drain, and even deals massive amounts of damage on a charged drain or combo drain. Without modifying weapons, you can use the Hanemukuro, Burning Claw, Iceblood, Sunset Sword, and Crimson Longsword, plus all but the Burning Disaster for the Bayonets, and still keep your Quick status. A modified Argent Wolf Blade Alleviation will increase to Quick with this Veil as well, if you like it's charged attack. Also, if you want to smack some of the enemies around with an allmighty pimphand, and you've beaten the game already once, the Argent Wolf King's Blade, with Alleviation, will only drop you down to Normal speed, and at +10 still hits for around 1576 at base. Works great when paired with one of the lighter weapons I listed above, due to the massive cone AOE stagger it's uncharged heavy attack causes, when you get surrounded by enough enemies that having a lightly armored speed build will normally get you killed in that situation.

                Literal glass cannon veil. Makes you very squishy but has extremely low weight so you can hit those mobility thresholds, and makes you deal a TON of damage with your drain attacks and gifts.

                • Anonymous

                  overall one of the best, if not the best blood veil in the game - highest drain attack / backstab damage by far combined with 2nd lowest weight and also amazing gift stats while still having decent protection sadly locked for those who didnt pre order
