So Do I Just Ditch the Daggers?Follow

My current weapons are the Guile of Khoraazi and the Retainer's Blade

I know they aren't great, but they were obtainable based on my style of gameplay. I don't have a schedule that allows raiding other than pugs, and I can't really commit to an arena team either.

I've tried a number of different specs, and everything just seems subpar compared to what I see sword and fist users doing.

I mostly just play BGs these days, and have enough honor to get season 1 weapons. I'd like to use a build that keeps blade flurry for when I farm Strat for enchanting mats. Are the season 1 swords or fists worth the use ofthe honor? Or should I be content with my daggers and use the honor to upgrade some armor pieces (mostly "assasination" pieces with BG epics where available).

Just looking for some advice on the best way to get what I can with how I play.

Thanks in advance.

Your first step is to use retainers blade you listed as your off hand.

Your second step is to get a slower main hand and a higher top-end damage. Seeing as you are doing BG's, Gladiator's Shanker would be a good choice for your main hand.

You'd be a good candidate for a PvP build. However, I know almost nothing about PvP, so I'll let someone else suggest that to you.

Well, you could go mutilate and replace your daggers with new daggers(you'll want both to be slower), or if you have the honor go fist+sword or sword+sword. I've also tried a strange assassination+hemo hybrid that was fun and not too weapon dependant so you can keep your OH weapon and just get a slower MH weapon.

Basically your MH dagger needs replaced, one way or another. :P Your OH can be kept if you go some sort of sub spec or hybrid non combat spec dependant build.

And by 'needs' I mean would be an improvement. Its not a horrible weapon, but you could put in a little work and have a nice upgrade to your dps by replacing it.

I'd highly recommend picking up the S1 sword, use your dagger as of OH until you can replace it with Lathro's sword or the S1 offhand.
