The only other points I can add is that Claws is more AoE oriented, but MA has a lot more control, so.. IMO, it depends on which you need, a set which can support your secondary and has more ST focus (MA) or a walking blender with a sturdy secondary to support the aggro you'll be shredding (Claws).

Sometimes all at once.

Actually, it's more MA/SD vs Claws/SR, but this is more about the primary than the secondary.
I'm trying to learn from reading the guides but it's not all that clear (and I note most of the guides are out of date WRT changes to both sets anyway), what are the differences in gameplay ability of the two sets? Is one more powerful than the other in certain conditions?
About the only thing I've been able to gather is that Claws is very end-light.
Thanks!
