Step 1: Rest.  This should bring up the meldshaping menu above automatically.  In this menu, select the meld you want to shape. We’ll us Kruthik Claws (hit 3 then 2) shape the rest of your melds, this menu should then close.

Step 2a: This menu will automatically open after you have chosen your soulmelds. You must have a Chakra Bind slot unlocked (level 2 for Totemist to unlock the Totem Bind). Choose 3 for Kruthik Claws here.

Step 2b: this menu lets you choose which Chakra you are binding the meld chosen to.  Totemists are special and get a “Totem” bind slot, choose this (press 1) here. This menu will close and you should see a message about your Primary Natural Weapon being equipped.  You now have Kruthik Claws bound.

Step 3a: To get the acid damage, you need to invest essential  into the Kruthik Claws. To do this, use the “Invest  Essentia” option in your class radial, it looks like a Blue face with a third eye.
