I'm asking this on a rules basis, not necessarily a common sense basis...as it is an Eidolon.
With a Quadruped base form, if I wanted to have 5 natural attacks, would the minimum Evos needed be Claws x2?
It starts with Bite for free, and 2 sets of legs. Would adding claws to all four legs be enough, or does it require an additional set of limbs/legs to stand upon to attack? Again, asking per rules and not necessarily structurally common sense basis.
Thanks in advance!
No, that doesn’t work. Regardless of the number of legs you have, claws can only be applied to legs once. It’s a limitation stated in the claws evolution, both for original and Unchained.
I missed that! Clears up everything!
Thank you kindly.
Glad to help! Have a nice day. (I will add that Rake gets you something kinda similar, but not as good.)

Also, be aware that Eidolons have a max attack cap based on the Summoner's level. An eidolon can't have more natural (chained) or total attacks (unchained) than the listed value. You won't have access to 5 attacks until summoner level 9
Once you have access to enough attacks, the "cheapest" way to get those extra two attacks would be to add a limbs (arms) evo (grows a pair) and attach a claws evo (or pincers, or a similar evo that grants two attacks) on those.
