The base damage, if played on Novice, isn't as much as you expect. A Vampire Lord's claws don't do as much damage as a werewolf's. But yes, the damage can be amped up if you equip the Ring of the Beast. It's enchantment grants you 100 more hit points and gives your claw attacks some more "oomf"! The claw attacks can also do more damage if you unlock the Poison Talons perk in the skill tree. Night Cloak can also help with dealing combination damage.
