The creature can make attacks with both claws as if it were proficient with them. Just as with a creature that has natural weapons, the subject takes no penalty for making two claw attacks. The subject is treated as armed. Furthermore, these claws gain a +2 enhancement bonus on attack and damage rolls.

If the creature already has claws, those claws gain a +2 enhancement bonus on attack and damage rolls, and the claws damage increases as if the creature were two size categories larger.
