Magick: 200
Slash Strength: 100
Strike Strength: 0
Knockdown Power: 138

Lightning +10%
Debilitations:
None

One of the best daggers you can use early in the game are the Bolts from the Blue as it also deals additional Lightning damage. This can be found fairly early near Checkpoint Rest Town. Otherwise, the Stilettos or Snagdaggers are decent picks that you can buy from Roderick's Smithy.

Best Midgame Dagger

Divine Razors IconDivine Razors Strength: 237
Magick: 0

As you progress through the game, consider getting the Divine Razors. It's got much higher attack power but will cost you some gold. If you're willing to look for Seeker's Tokens, you can collect 30 of them to get the Dowsing Spikes instead.

Of the daggers we've confirmed so far, the Dragon's Vein has the highest stats, easily beating out all other daggers. The Heaven's Key is also a consideration since it also deals Holy damage. Both these daggers are postgame-only, however, so the strongest dagger during the first playthrough will be the Framae Blades.

Stats Designed for Swift Gameplay

Daggers give less Strength, Slash Strength, and Knockdown Power than swords, but it doesn't mean they can deal less damage on an enemy. Daggers are designed for fast gameplay and can deal with equal or more damage in combat due to their speed.
