Yeah they took the Empyrean dagger ws and put it's damage somewhere between Calamity, a level 60 axe skill, and Mistral Axe, a level 66 axe skill. When they should have had Sharkbite like that, Mandalic Stab somewhere around Savage blade level, and then Rudra's 20%-30% stronger than Mandalic. Mercy Stroke is not salvageable.
