Clawmark Seal is a Sacred Seal in Elden Ring. The Clawmark Seal is a Weapon for characters that wish to use beast Incantations without investing in faith.

Elden Ring Clawmark Seal Notes & Tips

• Skill: None
• This weapon cannot be buffed with Ashes of War.
• Clawmark Seal is upgraded with Smithing Stones.
• Buffs the damage of all Bestial Incantations by 10%, stacking multiplicatively with Cinquedea.
  • Note that if you are trying to purely maximize damage of Bestial Incantations, you will see better results by using the Erdtree Seal at high faith levels, in conjunction with either Cinquedea or an offhand Clawmark seal, since the spellbuff of the Erdtree Seal is so much higher that it more than makes up for the additional 10% bonus.
  • Clawmark seal really shines when used on high-Str characters who want a ranged/fast attack option, but don't want to invest heavily in another stat.
• Incantations cast with this seal also scale with strength; two-handing this seal will further increase incant scaling due to the 50% effective strength bonus. This extra scaling is not shown in the inventory.
• At +10, with 45 Faith and 45 Strength the incant scaling softcaps at 280. Increasing either Faith or Strength up to 99 gives a poor 30 scaling per stat for a 340 Incant Scaling hardcap. Due to strength receiving a 50% bonus two-handing the softcap can be attained at just 30 strength and 45 faith by two-handing this seal.
• Only Faith applies to offensive buff Incantation scaling, making this Seal a bad choice for those using such spells (Bloodflame Blade, Electrify Armament, Black Flame Blade, etc)
• Bestial incantations include Stone of Gurranq, Gurranq's Beast Claw, Beast Claw, and Bestial Sling.
• Viable spellcasting for a Strength Build with barely any investment into int, fth, arc. Great for evening the playing field against actual spellcasters. Pocket sand will never let you down. (Can also use other low requirement non-bestial incants like catch flame to decent effect)
• It is wielded, but not dropped, by Azula Beastman Mages, to cast red lightning Incantations.
• Sell Value: 

  100

• NOTE: As of Patch 1.08 a bug that prevented the follow-up attack from occurring when the Black Sword Incantation was activated with a Sacred Seal in the left hand has been fixed.
• NOTE: As of Patch 1.09, the scaling values of this weapon were changed. Please refer to the Upgrades Table of this weapon below.
