Dagger Troubles

I hear alot of players being sad about how little dmg daggers do, especially when they are trying to be some wannabe assassin. Would be cool if either a new weapon was released that cannot block, but does decent damage, short range. Or if the dagger type weapons/knifes recieved a larger dmg bonus from attacking a players back. (Although this might be annoying if a player can circle quickly) Just some food for thought.
Slow and steady wins the race...Unless there is a fast person in it.

Double damage when attacking a players back with weapons which cannot block, a little ps and go for the head too and the damage gets high. Actually I think this would be all that is needed to make it effective to try to play an assassin or even just carry a knife incase you spot an unaware player.
Maybe you are not bad, but you are a boring person. Well, that's the end of the matter.

I actually had a build for this for about 3 months. :D
Love daggers. I can certainly tell you that they do a shitload (pardon my french) of  pierce damage as it is.. I am also certain that with 4 powerstrike I can 1hit most people, and with 4-5 hits I could kill tin cans. In my honest opinion, this is a build to be abused and I think it's op enough as it is.

How do you want to 1hit-kill someone with 4 PS and 25 pierce? Maybe peasants, but who can't 1hit-kill peasants?

I think they should buff the daggers dmg it will make it more rewarding trying to troll someone but!!! i guess if it was too much the whole point would be lost...

Aim for the eyes when you have to dagger people since u wont get another try if you miss
I've never played a server where people split up as much or as often as on EU1.  No wonder range is having a field day.

My point being daggers don't need a buff. Plain and simple, or is that too hard for you to understand? You must have an extra chromosome or something.

That's a needless personal attack.  Even with those stats the dagger is not so effective as you claim:

I am also certain that with 4 powerstrike I can 1hit most people, and with 4-5 hits I could kill tin cans

Using those stats and a fairly balanced level 22 build the dagger would still need to be doing consistent headshots and, more importantly, doing at least or the average damage possible for the weapon.  Against heavy tin cans you'd also need to be doing consistent headshots for maximum damage in order to kill in 4-5 hits.

Don't result to personal attacks when somebody questions your hyperbole.

Level 22 build?
I was thinking more level 30 with a 12/24 build

It doesn't matter. You don't kill anyone with 30 dmg (which is already the max, if you want to do consistent 1-hit kills, you'd need this dmg as min, but let's ignore that small fact for now), unless you score a headshot. You can rest your case all you want, ignorance doesn't win discussions. Or maybe you want to claim that you can do headshots consistently?

I was unclear.  The attacking player (you) in my simulations is level 30, the defending player is level 22 (an average version of "most people").
