Clawed Mole, known as just Mole in first two installments and Etrian Odyssey 2 Untold, is a recurring monster of the series, appearing in every game except for Etrian Odyssey V. It is often an early game enemy, but its attack power often surpasses other monsters in the same area.
It is depicted as a overgrown, biped mole, with big, sharp claws, which it uses to rip apart its prey.

Moles are first encountered on the 1st floor of the Emerald Grove.
Moles are rather powerful monsters that appear early in the game. Compared to the other monsters on the 1st floor, they have a very high attack power, being a dangerous enemy early on in the game. To make things worse, they sometimes attack in groups, in which case it is recommended to flee. However, they have a low defense and should die in an attack or two.

Moles are first seen on 1F and continue to be seen in the first stratum. Moles are among the weakest monsters in Etrian Odyssey II, having no notable abilities (Claws just hits slightly harder than a normal Attack) or characteristics.
Moles often show up in groups of themselves or other weak monsters. They are weak to Fire, but in reality there is simply no need to exploit this weakness due to their weak nature.
When they show up with other monsters, it is advised to take out the Moles after the other enemies. If they show up in groups of three or more, always take them out one at a time.

Clawed Moles are fairly rare and are only found on B12F. They can be hard to find because of the staggering amounts of monsters found here, but they are most easily found at the entrance of the floor.
They are not very tough enemies. Crazy Swipes allows them to hit your party with two Slash attacks to the same person. Each hit, if it lands, has a chance to Confuse you. Unlike other monsters in this stratum, this skill is underwhelming and not very threatening. It is often paired with other monsters on this floor, usually a Cave Elephant.

- Crazy Swipe (Uses Arms): Slash attack targeting a single party member. It hits twice and may cause Confuse.
