D&D 5E - Claws, Bites, Unarmed Strikes, & Breath Weapons

Publish date: 2024-08-19
That makes sense to me but is why it would seem like a tabaxi would be better (or at least equally as good) at using its claws compared to a dagger.
I really don't see how finesse claws unbalance* - for flavor it just seems weird that a warlock tabaxi would use a dagger/daggers when it has natural weapons that it would be just as proficient with (and has been using longer).

* Compare this to Lizardfolk bite which does a higher dice damage or Minotaur horns doing 1d10 with a +2 racial Str bonus that can be added to Horn attack (plus Goring Rush or Hammering Horns). I would think a tabaxi unarmed claw strike would necessitate not holding items so no significant advantage there (again, especially compared to a Bite or Horn attack).
