    Small Request to Raise Dagger's Base Damage a tad.

    Hello again Thief friends! (And DNC's I guess, This affects you!)

    I have just a small request to the Dev team. Can they increase Dagger base damage by a small amount? Only level ~80+ ones, As an Example:

    Weapon - Original - New
    Kila - DMG:38 - DMG:39
    Kila +1 - DMG:41 - DMG:42
    Kila +2 - DMG:43 - DMG:45
    Kila +3 - DMG:45 - DMG:47
    Thokcha - DMG:47 - DMG:49
    Mandau85 - DMG:46 - DMG:48
    Mandau90 - DMG:49 - DMG:51
    Mandau95 - DMG:53 - DMG:55
    Mandau99 - DMG:55 - DMG:59
    Twasthar85 - DMG:45 - DMG:47
    Twasthar90 - DMG:48 - DMG:50
    Twasthar95 - DMG:52 - DMG:54
    Twasthar99 - DMG:55 - DMG:58
    Lux Pugio - DMG:48 - DMG:50
    Coruscanti - DMG:49 - DMG:51
    Supernal Knife - DMG:49 - DMG:52
    Asteria - DMG:50 - DMG:53

    And basically, all other level ~85+ Daggers have their Base Damage raised by 1-2. I know it doesn't seem like a lot, But i feel daggers got kinda jipped when it came to damage increases from 76~99.

    Again, Small request. But something i feel would be a nice upgrade. It'd be a small boost to THF and DNC, but a boost non-the-less.

    i like this.

    One exemple i can think of on how dagger got jipped is kikoku vs mandau. Back at 75 it was 42 vs 39 base damage. At 99 it's 64 vs 55. Where is the love SE?!

    Then again katana and dagger have similar dps right now. Increasing their base damage would give quite an edge to daggers.

    I thought about adding Katana to the list - Honestly, They deserve a small upping as well.

    I wonder. And then how would swords fare there? lol I sense a chain reaction. All high end weapons seem to have similar dps. Oh wait, i just noticed the 2H ones seem to have the highest now. Yeah...it should have been the other way around considering how 2H is favored these days.

    Sword has actually gotten a much larger boost than most 1 handed weaponry.

    Excalibur actually has higher DPS than Mandau at 99.

    Indeed, it's a shame mandau lost the dps crown. But one-hand weapons sure have close dps. Excal vs mandau is 1880 vs 1875. Now something like ragnarok...1991. Crazy.

    Kinda interesting how they reversed the DPS values from 75-99 on some of those eh? I remember Mandau being higher than other relics, now it is under several, but only marginally. Personally I would have liked to see higher than 55 also since it would have increased weapon rank...even if it was just a couple higher. Not sure why it has to be lower....but I sense the "balance" trend has something to do with it.

    Rmember when comparing dagger vs katana that NIN has an extra 10% delay reduction than THF, and 5% more than DNC, upping their DPS. (except when we're at haste cap)

    Gungnir used to be 3DMG behind Apocalypse, and Bravura was always 1D behind Gungnir. Now Bravura is 146, Gungnir is 147, and Apocalypse is 154 :/
