Name that dagger!

Post by Elysia » Wed Apr 06, 2016 2:44 pm

"Shortblades: Made a new 2h dagger, which does not stab, but intends to let rogues who lost their Pair of Dirks at least function as a melee character instead of forcing them to spend time (waiting) on a prac reset."

These are part of the 2016 Weapon Rebalancing. Arguably the most dangerous change, if all rogues go 1h stab and 2h parry, so we'll just have to see how it goes.

I have named the dagger in question: a pair of three-pronged daggers

However! If anyone comes up with a better name, I'm all for it. So name that dagger!

While a return of the Sai would be awesome, my suggestion would be:

A pair of gold-plated fist knifes

a pair of steel sword-breakers

(alternatively anything dealing with parrying daggers might fit the category). I also like the trident dagger idea, but visually the trident daggers look particularly weak imho.

a pair of neverstabs

Agree with the idea that this weapon is perilous. If the weapon is terrible then the rogue is still compelled to reset unless they truly believe they can get another set of dirks. Why play a build where a large amount of your practices are locked away. If the weapon is decent then trolls will use it to level up faster - you wouldn't be tied down to shield parry as you level up. Could be very popular with hunters that don't practice stab.
