Why pick a dagger over a Archer?

Hello everyone!
I will soon start a classchange quest on my alt and he is atm a rouge.
So is there a real reason why one should pick a TreasureHunter over a Hawkeye?
Tried playing both classes on the PTS and the Hawkeye was better in PvE and they are also better in PvP.
But i thought i might be missing something, is there a reason to pick a dagger over a archer?
hmm i played both 2 i havent really pvp with it thougd
i found it hard 2 grind and i heard that in castle sieges you can 1 hit ppl even of your same lv that you do even more dmg then a nuker class

but why would you play HE if you can also do SR SR is the fastes class in the game right?
HEs hit harder than SRs and crit just as much. But Leonidar is human anyway, so...

I'd say the best reason to pick daggers is that they won't bore you to tears within five minutes in PvE, unlike archers. :p But that's personal preference. I'd sooner stab myself than play an archer again. ><
I found daggers to be better suitable for manoring, they kill fast, crit hard, do not need to use soulshots (usually, unlike 10 per shot on C archer), have silent walk and fake death. And it's fun to watch "will my special stab land? Woah, crit for 1400 damage!"
yeah true i was thinink on playing HE but yeah then i thougd well i didnt really loved it so much kind of boring TH has more ways of atk etc more verstile

and with manoring i thougd hmm bow and putting those seeds on is a pain in the ***

plus i got a dyes on 1+str-2 con 1+dex -2 con so i cant really take 2 much stuff on me
If you want to be the better class there is no doubt, go HE.

If you think TH look more fun though you should choose it.
il do a sub on HE ;) but il never be hero with TH cause 2 many ppl play TH fat chance il be hero:<
why pick a dagger over a archer simple
it's a style you like to play if you dont like the style dont become a dagger dude
Daggers, specifically are THE Zariche hunters and users. No class is better. Silent Move/ Stealth makes all the difference when hunting ( get deep into MoS and see how often people try to follow you.... kekeke ). As for hunting it... they have blows that can kill or bypass cp.... so it doesn't matter what bonsues Zariche gives... 1+ successful stabs and the zariche owner is down.

There is more to daggers than that, but since their royal nerf, this is what I believe they best at.... and it's a biggy.
silent move makes for a better manor character.
And the fact that you kill them in melee.
It just a class preference, I went sps instead of HE, because I like nuking better than kiting all over the place. HE's are considered "better" but if you don't like it none of that matters.
