This article is on the type of weapon. If you were looking for the specific item called Dagger, see Dagger (basic)

TitleDagger

Definition[]

A dagger is almost any kind of small, single or double-edged bladed weapon. They are designed to be easily concealed, yet quickly available for use. For a pirate, their small knife was also a tool, but this weapon was indispensable when their gun was empty or they were in close quarter combat. It has the advantage of being both a melee weapon and a long ranged weapon, as it can be thrown. Not to be confused with Throwing Knives, which are primarily designed to be quickly thrown in rapid succession. Usually using throwing knives will give you more reputation then daggers.

Game Play[]

A beginning pirate does not have the dagger skill. It must be learned by completing the Dagger Quest after Notoriety level 10. Abilities with a dagger increases its lethal damage and variety of daggers the pirate can use. Dealing Dagger strikes in the backs of enemies deals a lot more damage than attacking from the front.

A powerful feature of the dagger is in its use against voodoo wielding enemies. The Asp, Throw Dirt and Viper's Nest throws all unattune the enemy's voodoo doll from the pirate, earning them freedom from voodoo attacks until the enemy can attune them again.

Many enemies in the Caribbean attack using daggers such as the Undead Gravediggers, Undead Mutineers, Undead Brigands, Undead Slashers, Undead Raiders, and the Undead Captains. The EITC Black Guard Thugs, Hired Guns and Assassins also use daggers. Even some of Davy Jones's crew use daggers like Dregs, and Kelpbrains.
