Main-hand if no R/M/E

So, I opted out of Twashtar as my group was sick to death of Glavoid, don't really play enough to do Mandau, mythic is completely out of the question, so what's left?

So far I've been unable to get a Coruscanti, so it's between a few options (unless I missed something):

STR trial dagger.
Supernal Knife (I assume this will be last. I never used it yet since getting it).
Lux Pugio (what I currently use).
Aluh Jambiya (never actually went ahead and bought this, despite it looking like such a good weapon - idk why?).

Get an aluh and offhand a fire dagger or lux pugio, I'd say.

Hmmm, I figured Triplus was pretty much the best off-hand there is?

(4/5 empy +2 build)

Is it? Guess I should take mine out of storage then. Then again, I only have two +2 armor pieces on thf.

Well, idk. With triplus and relic feet +2 both increasing triple attack damage, 23% Triple attack in TP gear, and 4/5 +2s, there's a lot of extra damage gained from those triple attacks. However, looking at the DPS now, those newer daggers do offer quite a lot more than Triplus.

I guess I should try comparing them on Monty's spreadsheet, if I can find where it was...

Triplus is waaay out of date. dont listen to that nonsense. And surprisingly pugniligus from legion is now the best dagger for offhand. Unfortunately it's a very unpopular event.

Thanks. Took me a few mins to find the dagger you were referring to, but I believe this is the one? Pugiunculus

I'm not surprised. Just looked at it and the TA+5% made me drool a little.

I wasn't even aware of the existence of this dagger until now. It does seem like the best choice, indeed.

Really? I Can't imagine its too amazing on Enemies with higher defense. I mean, On fodder like Dynamis, Limbus, Salvage, I can see it being a no brainer, But I figured on anything of consequence, It would begin to fall behind a Fire Magian or Aluh Jambiya.

I can also see it losing its shine come the next expansion where i bet monsters will be a little bit tougher than... uh... paper. So, I mean, I won't hold my breath on picking it up, But for a Non R/M/E THF, Right now I'd really recommend Aluh/Flame, or Aluh/Dex if accuracy is needed.

Still, Would like to see how that dagger tends to stack on higher level mobs, When as it stands now my THF has roughly... 23% Triple Attack in gear already. (3 Body, 3 Head, 3 Ring, 3 Feet, 11 Trait/Merit).

Morale of the post, I wouldn't kick yourself for not knowing of this daggers existence, Though it is beautiful, I don't think its the end all be all Offhand on anything above average fodder content. Though, on Average fodder content... Its pretty nice.

Well, what else than fodder would you let a thf melee on?

Yah >_> I know that.

But on the bright side, Meeble Burrows is affected by TH! So maybe some of the new content, expansion wise, will be too. I hope the new producer realizes the last couple round of events has sucked THF into the pits of Red Mage.

Because it doesn't take much to actually get.
