Dagger for a PW

Player Questions Started Last reply 10 posts
Well, my Li'l Scout is going to be a PlainsWalker soon (hopefully). I'm just wondering, should I get a Crystal Dagger with Crt. Damage because of the extra P.Atk. and with a stab I'll do even more damage? Or should I get a Grace Dagger with Focus?
I know that everyone will recommend the Grace Dagger, but I'm just wondering if the extra damage from a Crystal Dagger will outweigh the benefits of critting more often.
I'd say, get the Focus ;)
in the pvp I have, my crystal dagger more 1-crits more then 1 person.

I'd say get buffs and the Crystal Dagger.
Well, I won't have buffs unless my EE friend decides to buff me or if someone's 2-box decides to buff me.

So, the Grace Dagger/Focus is the way to go with only selfbuffs and pots? I guess this means I'm getting a Grace Dagger/Focus.
Yes, purely on selfbuffs, you will do better with the Grace dagger.

Very nice looking dagger btw, haven't seen one in a while.
Yup, that's exactly what I figured. I'm making the Grace Dagger so I'll look even more unique than if I was just in Rind Leather. I've almost managed to gather all of the mats for Rind, thanks to me spamming Giran and my clan.
*drool*

I'm trying to get Rind recipes for like months now...
I've got 2 Glove Recs, 1 Mail Rec, 1 Boots Rec and no Gaiters rec. Which is annoying because Gaiters are the only item that I have enough mats to make it.

Plainswalkers have low LE STR, and get the Crit chance passives, so I'm going to add my votes to going with the Crystal Dagger and Crit.Damage.

Without outside buffs, I think you'd get more useful damage that way since your crit chance isn't going to be that much better or worse by my calculations. Crit damage however, is where you would be lacking.
I kinda like crit damage. the argumenting is endles about what is best, focus or CD :/
Im sure focus is best for most dagger and other classes, but well.... personaly Im using CD on my TH. I dont like the idea of losing a lot of p.attack for some more crits.

all CD daggers have more p.attack then focus daggers. and doing less damage on regular hits and a "lot" les damage on critts doesent sound fun. and I like to be able to one-hit backstabb people more often then not :)
