In this part of the video, the presenter, CIS, discusses what he considers the best dagger build in the game. He emphasizes that despite the build not having the highest attack rating (AR), it is exceptionally effective due to the ability to apply multiple status effects. CIS mentions that this build can potentially trigger up to five status effects on a boss, although usually, three to four statuses are more practical.
He shares his personal experience with daggers, noting that they were challenging to use in the early game but became a favorite mid to late game after focusing on status effects and procs. The build involves using “jeffre daggers,” which are difficult to obtain as they are only available once per playthrough. To dual wield them, players need to either start a New Game Plus or have a friend drop one. As an alternative, CIS suggests using “jeffre dagger” in the main hand and “krong or Hunter Dam” in the off-hand, both providing frost buildup in addition to poison and bleed effects.
He also recommends using the Charm of Fortune for poison effects and highlights the importance of managing resources efficiently to avoid running out of money for salts, which are necessary for upgrading and maintaining the build. CIS further elaborates on the significance of adding Radiance and Inferno to his character’s stats, and using a poison weapon, particularly before boss fights, to maximize the build’s effectiveness.

They recommend replacing them with better options like the neoy dagger, which has wither, obtained from a traveling merchant. Additionally, they highlight the importance of pairing certain daggers with the Blood Bane ring to inflict bleed and poison, and the Pendant of Burden, both found near each other in the fin area. The narrator also mentions completing a quest line to resolve an NPC purchase bug, contributing to their strategy throughout the game.
