Description

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇯🇵

A standard dagger with a straight blade.

Though modest in reach and capacity for harm, this weapon is light enough to jab in rapid succession and delivers devastating critical hits.

攻撃力とリーチに劣るが
軽量のため、素早い連撃が可能であり
致命の一撃の威力も高い

Acquisition

• 1 sold by the Twin Maiden Husks at Roundtable Hold for 400 Runes
• 4% drop chance from dagger-wielding enemies (Highwaymen, Godrick Foot Soldiers, Raya Lucaria Foot Soldiers, Radahn Foot Soldiers, Leyndell Foot Soldiers, Haligtree Foot Soldiers, and Messmer Foot Soldiers).
  • A good early farming spot is all the Highwaymen at the beginning of Murkwater Cave.

Notes

• Together with the Rapier this weapon has the second strongest critical multiplier at 130 (the Miséricorde has the highest, at 140).
• Has low enough requirements to be used with any starting class's default attributes and is fairly common, making it a decent secondary weapon for backstabbing and other critical hits, especially for those who don't have the stats to wield the Miséricorde.
• Generally Dexterity-leaning on its affinities and performs best on a Keen affinity (having scaling just short of S-tier scaling) but also works surprisingly well with the Occult affinity, even if it lacks any of the innate Status Effects required to truly take advantage of this.
  • Despite this its Keen affinity actually gives it slightly weaker Dexterity-scaling for "bullet"-type (i.e. doesn't scale directly with the used weapon's damage) Skills with a Keen, Quality, Lightning, or Cold affinity, giving them usually about 2% less damage than they otherwise would have. This includes, as an example, the skills Beast's Roar, Storm Blade, Thunderbolt, and Hoarfrost Stomp (these skills however perform as normal on any affinity besides Keen).
• The shortest of all daggers.

Upgrade Information

• Upgraded with regular Smithing Stones.
• Can have its Affinity and Skill changed.
• All non-physical Affinities lower all types of guarded damage negation by 5%, except for the associated element where the damage negation increases by 25% and another element also increases by 15%.
  • Magic negation receives the secondary 15% negation bonus on Sacred and Cold affinities, Fire negation gets the increase on Lightning affinity, Lightning negation gets the increase on Fire and Flame Art affinities, and Holy negation gets the increase on Magic affinity.
• The upper number in the Atk column denotes Physical base damage while the lower, colored number in the Atk column denotes elemental base damage: red for Fire damage, yellow for Lightning damage, orange for Holy damage, and cyan for Magic damage.
• See the Weapon Scaling page for what the scaling values mean.
