New Standard WeaponFollow

Phurba: Dagger lvl 89

DMG:44 Delay:190 Accuracy+10
"Waltz" potency +10%

Shocked that we got waltzpotency on the weapon but after so many updates without a new waltzpotency item, its pretty nice. Also has a higer base damage than Kila +2. Interesting...
Please please don't be hard to get...

Other weapons of interest from the update:

Twilight Needle
DMG:40 Delay:190
"Quadruple Attack"+3%
Additional effect: HP, MP, or TP Drain
WAR RDM THF BST BRD RNG NIN COR DNC

+2 versions of all the magian daggers.

That dagger isvery sexy...

Only issue I see is that you can't macro swap to that waltz potency. Need to full time it, which will make you lose that possible 20 eva or whatever the latest kila will have.

I don't think it's all that underwhelming. 10 accuracy and waltz potency on the dagger is pretty much dnc's bread and butter. Doing more damage with 2x str kila's is nice, but odds are when you're in a situation with other party members who rely on your cures, your damage will be less important than keeping the party alive. Perhaps in solo situations it would be better to keep on the 2x eva kila +2's but at the end of the day, a dnc is a front line healer. I'm sure thf's don't like having to have (or at least had to, perhaps not so much anymore with new TH availabe) TP in a thief's knife in situations when you want drops - atleast this one is a pretty viable weapon by comparison.

How does this compute exactly? These daggers might make up for being cheated on emp armor.

Ok "worthless" might not have been the word I was looking for exactly. But I'm not going to think this thing is awesomesauce yet until I see how the extra attacks check. And I did completely overlook the additional effects on it, which if they process nicely, it could be a good dagger in the end.

As for the cure dagger, yeah I'm still underwhelmed for that fact that I really don't main cure that much these days. If that's why you're in the party/alliance its pretty useful, but if not, I don't see myself giving up my other daggers for this. If these stats were on any other slot (or if that was -waltz timer instead of potency) I'd be going gaga over it like the rest of you seem too...call me hard to please if you will...

edit:


Not my kracken dagger but f*ck yeah ill take it!

Yeah just hit 90 myself and its exactly as you say...one measly double hit for 2 FMs. Guess they mean us to use it with a full 3 FMBFWS but if you have saber up or some double attack gear then you have a chance of doing the same thing. Don't know yet if it builds upon that for extra hits, but I highly doubt it.

Oh and its flourish III so can't use with CF either >.>

I suspect it is the Blue !! drop off Indirk or Emperador de Altepa. I'm leaning towards Indirk (Light belt, Auroral Alicorn type monster).

While I haven't seen a dagger quite THAT nice yet, I have a LOT of hope for these, as I found a Viper Bite DMG +30% augment on one. If that can be found on Evis or DE, that would be really, REALLY nice.

Damn that kills my +5 dmg +3% crit one ><;;

The only reported WS dmg +x% i've seen are low level WS's like Viper bite, backhand blow, ect. so I'm not holding much hope for anything beyond Viper bite, though it could just be super rare.

Now to burn credits trying and combine DMG and crit rate on a mnk weapon...
