Why Don't Garuda's Talons have rivens?
They're clearly not an exulted weapon so why not give them rivens?
(P.S I haven't played enough with her yet so I don't know if their viable when compared to say something like venka prime with a riven mod)

Yeah, cuz they've been doing great against lvl 40 enemies and her over all kit with the right build gives good survivability, I'm just not sure if I should even bother formaing her talons

They're good status weapons and Garuda Prime would be years away so it's a safe bet it'd be fine to forma them. Melees don't usually need many anyways

one potato and one V polarity were enough for me to make em usable, since i always run with 2 hp to get double damage ( also use aura with +60 melee damage )

They are actually used for all her abilities.
1. Pounces and sinks her claws into the victim to activate the shield. The glob bomb she fires also has pieces of the claws in it.
2. Builds an altar out of her claws to impale the victim on.
3. Rakes her claws up her body to draw the blood to convert to energy.
4. Fires her claws at everyone in the target area.

The Viral + Slash Status build I put on them shreds level 100's with ease, even more so now with the ridiculous attack speed claws have gotten post-melee changes. Rivens would hardly be necessary.

So does this mean If I mod her talons for certain elements her abilities will have those elements as well ?

Not in my experience.
The mods (apparently) only come into effect when you use the claws as melee weapons.
