Some skills also change names when they are specialized, this can also cause confusion. <br><br><br>This guide will go into all the weapon combinations you can choose to pair with daggers, the best skills to level up first, and sort out some confusion with skill names you may see or hear about. <br><br><br>Dagger Weapon Combination Tier List <br><br><br><br><br><br>There are seven weapons in Throne and Liberty, which means there are six other weapons you can pair with daggers . However, this doesn't mean each pairing synergizes well with daggers. While most weapons actually pair very well with daggers, there are a couple that fall behind the pack. <br><br><br>We rank each weapon combination based on: <br><br><br><br><br>Damage output in both PvE and PvP scenarios. <br><br><br><br><br>Utility (movement speed, crowd control, etc). <br><br><br><br><br>Difficulty to play. <br><br><br><br><br>Freedom of choice in build. <br><br><br><br><br>See the chart below for a quick reference to the best to worst weapons to use in combination with daggers: <br><br><br>Tier <br><br><br>| <br><br><br>Weapon <br><br><br>| <br><br><br>Comment   <br><br><br>---|---|---  <br><br><br>S <br><br><br>| <br><br><br>Crossbow<br><br><br>| <br><br><br>The go-to assassination damaging build. Dagger skills debuff the target and aid in mobility while the crossbow skills tear the enemy down with heavy and quick damage.   <br><br><br>Staff<br><br><br>| <br><br><br>With focus on ranged damage while using the staff as your primary weapon and the dagger as your offhand, you rely on the dagger's passive prowess and high mobility to enhance your staff damage and gameplay.   <br><br><br>A <br><br><br>| <br><br><br>Greatsword<br><br><br>| <br><br><br>When daggers are paired with greatswords, the greatsword will take priority as your main hand weapon you will use for auto attacks. Similar to the staff builds, the dagger assists the greatsword by buffing up with poisons and offering high mobility to dodge and avoid incoming damage.   <br><br><br>Longbow<br><br><br>| <br><br><br>Longbow is better paired with a crossbow, but when used in the main hand with a dagger in the offhand, it is still a very strong combination. As most of the entries so far, the dagger in the offhand just complements the other high-damaging weapons so well that these are all fantastic options.   <br><br><br>B <br><br><br>| <br><br><br>Wand<br><br><br>| <br><br><br>With the wand in the mainhand and dagger in the offhand, the combination performs well in PvP or when AoE farming. This could be a good combination to farm materials in the open world, but when it comes to dungeons and boss fights, other combinations just simply output more burst and sustain damage to less enemies to help execute them.   <br><br><br>Sword and Shield<br><br><br>| <br><br><br>Both the dagger and the sword and shield are on the lower end of damage output on their own. The dagger excels at boosting other weapons to multiply their damage output, but with the sword also being a low damaging weapon, it fails to keep up with other options. For tanks, there are other much better combinations with the sword. For PvP, if you are looking to be a frontline soldier, this combination excels.   <br><br><br>Stat Priorities <br><br><br><br><br><br>The main stat you want to focus on with daggers is Dexterity . <br><br><br>Your next most important stat should then match up with the other weapon you are using. For a crossbow you will want Perception , and for a staff you will want Wisdom . After these, you can focus on Strength . <br><br><br>Best Dagger Skills To Level First <br><br><br><br><br><br>The best dagger skills to level first will be very reliant on which weapon combination you choose. In general, you will want to level whichever dagger skills best compliment your other weapon. <br><br><br>For purposes of this guide, we will focus on the example of Dagger + Crossbow , and comment on some tweaks for other weapon combinations. <br><br><br>Dagger &amp; Crossbow Skills Priority <br><br><br>When pairing with a crossbow, you will want to level your active dagger skills roughly in this order: <br><br><br><br><br> Block Blade  - This is your key Q bound button. The higher you've leveled it up, the more mana regen and recovery you will get when successfully blocking an attack. This is key to ensure you are getting enough mana back while in combat. <br><br><br><br><br> Cleaving Moonlight  - A 6 second cooldown of which, when specialized into   Consecutive Use (Cleaving Moonlight)  , you can use twice. It doesn't dish out as much damage as some other abilities but it can be used very often to provide sustain damage. <br><br><br><br><br> Brutal Incision  (which turns into   Thunderclouds Bombing (Brutal Incision)  once specialized)- Deals massive damage and upgrading the skill helps that damage scale quickly. <br><br><br><br><br> Inject Venom  (which turns into   Lightning Infusion (Inject Venom)  once specialized) - You want to open with this skill to coat your weapons with poison and add additional damage to all attacks for the next 9 seconds. <br><br><br><br><br> Shadow Strike  - This adds some great utility to be able to quickly move out of a frontal attack and appear behind the enemy. <br><br><br><br><br>When upgrading passive dagger skills, focus on these: <br><br><br><br><br> Assassin's Instincts  - Simply increase your critical hit chance by a massive amount <br><br><br><br><br> Wrathful Edge  - This increases your critical hit damage, synergizing very well with Assassin's Instincts. <br><br><br><br><br> Destructive Fang  - Offers a powerful debuff to the target, which will increase everyone's damage against it - this is great utility. <br><br><br><br><br> Ambidexterity  - This increases offfhand weapon damage, and when pairing daggers with crossbows, you will be dishing out A LOT of offhand hits. <br><br><br><br><br>Dagger Combination Skill Priority Alternatives <br><br><br>If you are pairing daggers with a ranged weapon such as the staff, you will replace some of the more melee-focused skills, such as   Cleaving Moonlight  and   Brutal Incision  . You may choose to keep   Shadow Strike  as a great options for getting out of a frontal attack and teleporting behind the boss. <br><br><br>You will focus more on upgrading and leveling the ranged weapon's skills and utilizing those on your bars while picking up different dagger skills such as   Fatal Stigma  . <br><br><br>Dagger Skill Specialization Skill Name Differences <br><br><br>Close <br><br><br>You may hear about a skill you can't find in game when reading build guides online - this may be due to that fact that when you specialize your skills, some of them actually change names into a different skill. Here is the list of dagger skills that end up changing names when specialized. <br><br><br>You will need the advanced skill name first , then the original name of the skill. <br><br><br><br><br> Thunderclouds Bombing (Brutal Incision) <br><br><br><br><br> Shadow Escape (Shadow Strike) <br><br><br><br><br> Lightning Infusion (Inject Venom) <br><br><br><br><br> Thunder Spirit (Umbral Spirit) <br><br><br><br><br> Lightning Throw (Knife Throwing) <br><br><br><br><br> Mad Sword Dance (Frenzied Sword Dance) <br>
