Daggers? No. Swords that actually looked reasonable? Yes.
Most of the Lv40 range swords are great, but then we start getting things like Ancient Sword and I start thinking "These are closer to metal clubs than they are to actual blades...". I mean, is Break Blade really meant to be a blade?
The Buster Sword was a great sword, right now we seem to be using it with a shield. Seriously, what are great swords going to be at this rate? The most over the top great sword in the franchise is already a one handed blade here... Sometimes I wonder why Paladin even needs a shield, considering half its endgame swords are bigger... There is a point where parrying with a blade just becomes an out right block, and the XIV developers passed it a while ago...
