Dragon.4782 Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Am I the only one that is kind of annoyed at daggers not getting any cool designs aside from their hilt? I mean swords, GS, axes, maces, and even hammers have gotten really cool and/or interesting designs in various weapon sets but for some reason daggers are just letter openers. Why cant we have a miniature scimitar dagger, or a kukri? Hell, why not split charakams or sai's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawdler.8521 Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Dont worry after Anet see this the next legendary dagger will be an actual letter opener. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Witch of Doom.5739 Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 In the Improvised Weapon set, the dagger is a broken bottle, so there is that. Also I expect some more interesting weapons in the upcoming expansion pack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Greyhawk.9107 Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Because its the Black Lion Weapon Sets, they pretty much use the same structure with different effects layered over the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it helps: [sai](https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Usoku%27s_Needle), [Kama](https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Dragon_Kama), [Kukri](https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Touch_of_Dhuum) are in-game already.

Why cant we have a miniature scimitar dagger, or a kukri? Hell, why not split charakams or sai's? Remember when they asked players to design weapons? The templates are extremely restrictive.

The way the kama and kukri are held really bothers me. Kama should be an axe skin at least tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You basically hit people with the end of the grip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donari.5237 Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 I personally like simple small straight blades for daggers (or plausibly curved). And simple longer ones for swords, and somewhat longer ones for greatswords. I've done rl swordplay and just can't get into massive boards on sticks as weapons. I'm not any more 'right' about this than those who do like the bizarre-to-me twisty glowing paddles, it's subjective, but no I do not get annoyed by realistic blades. I applaud them.
