how would you build a dagger only character? anyone play one?
-
9/30 something would probably work. Athletics is key.
-
You'll just glance with 3 ps.
-
you need at least 5ps and shitloads of ath. with 5ps and +3 dagger, a single thrust attack on head can kill most of the medium armored doodz. people stop blocking when they see you draw your dagger 8-)
-
15/27?
-
Nono, im pretty sure its playable even with 1 PS, but then only the thrusts will be effective. If you aren't a master of chambers a buckler + longdagger build is also pretty fun, and looks decent ^^

I did well with 15/24

15/24 or 18/24 should give you plenty speed and makes you hit harder than most people expect. With athletics 8 and light armor (it's a dagger only build you fucking better be wearing light armor) you can outrun anyone and easily flank for backstabs on any map. The key is to catch someone off guard with your first attack, then use your speed to chamber or chip away at them while they wiggle around and spam blocks or swings.
Running figure eights in a group of enemies and having them kill each other is a good time. :)

That's because it's hard to block. Much easier to hold attack and strike when it's needed.

There is another school of thought which is to wear rags for armour and go 24/18 8PS 6ath, you will be fast enough and faster than most plus you will have a sting in the tail with all that power.
I watched hobo with a shank down a good few people with 30/9 build as well.

yeah thats what im thinking, dont need WM at all
does more than 10 althletics definitely have an effect?

low alth simply wont cut it, I wish it would because then I could make a almost viable unarmed char. but thing is u need really high alth to hit anyone, and u need really high str to do any damage ;(. long dagger can actually kill people without high ps, and I think you need very high alth to dodge mele because u can't chamber every hit.

You have to be fully Agility. Having 12-15 strength would defeat the purpose of a dagger only build, to assassinate people with high speed. The dagger is used cause its 0 Strength requirement. You can shove all your attribute points into Agility.
Consider a 3/36 build.
Strength: 3
Agility: 36
Hit points: 38
Skills to attributes: 8
Power Strike: 1
Athletics: 12
Weapon Master: 10
One Handed: 190

I also did a build with something like 4/33 i think, 1 extra str for a wakizashi :mrgreen: actually worked, nasty 1h leftswings packs some punch even with 1 ps
-
15/27
14 skills > 7 attribute
5ps
9ath
3shield/if, your choice.
Bucklerr incase you run in multiple enemies, optional(!)
110 1handed wpf
Or change 3if/shield to wm and get some xbow wpf to shotgun people
