[edit] Properties

• Maximum damage range: 7 - 17.
• Damage type: Slashing damage or piercing damage.
• Attack rate: 1.33 seconds¹.
• Base: Unsalvagable inherent (from Factions) or salvagable inscription (Nightfall or Eye of the North).
• Modifiers: Dagger Tang (name prefix) and Dagger Handle (suffix).

1. Excluding double strikes.

As with any other two-handed weapon, you can't wield a dagger and a focus or shield at the same time. All daggers have an inherent 2% chance of double strike that stacks with any chance granted by the Dagger Mastery attribute, so at 16 Dagger Mastery a pair of daggers have a mean attack interval of 0.99 seconds.

[edit] Dagger types

Note: This is a list of all the different appearances a pair of daggers may have. It is completely independent of its stats and modifiers; for example Dirks may be as effective as Zodiac Daggers if they share the same inscription and modifiers.
