Daggers are the primary weapon of a Thief in Dragon's Dogma 2 (DD2). See the best Daggers, a list of all Daggers, their main stats, and how to get them!

Best Daggers

Best Early Game Dagger

Bolts from the Blue	Strength: 115 Magick: 200 Slash Strength: 100 Strike Strength: 0 Knockdown Power: 138
	Element: 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	Strength: 237 Magick: 0 Slash Strength: 100 Strike Strength: 0 Knockdown Power: 155
	Element: None Debilitations: None

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.

Best Dagger Overall

Dragon's Vein	Strength: 330 Magick: 0 Slash Strength: 100 Strike Strength: 0 Knockdown Power: 198
	Element: None Debilitations: None

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.

Pawns with the Thief Vocation can also equip and use daggers in the game. Consider giving them one with better stats to help you out more in battle when needed!

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.
