History of Dagger
Daggers are a type of melee armament in Elden Ring. They generally have very short reach and low damage against both health and poise, but compensates for this with their fast attack speed and sometimes higher than average damage on Critical Attacks, making several of them (particularly the Dagger and especially the Misericorde) powerful tools for Backstabs and Ripostes.Their fast attack-speed and high number of hits-per-second makes them good at building up Status Ailments like Poison and Blood Loss. As they have low weight, they also make excellent catalysts for certain Ashes of War and Skills, providing a stat-efficient means of casting status buffs like Golden Vow or Shared Order with no need for high investment in certain attributes, while specific daggers such as Reduvia and the Black Knife have exceptionally strong ranged skills that only they posses.
