This week in MC I got Gutgore Ripper which I’m using for main hand. I had been using Electrified Dagger for MH and Scarlet Kris for OH. Should I keep using the Scarlet for OH because it is faster or switch to Electrified?

I would use Scarlet Kris OH due to the faster attack speed.
However, I would strongly advise farming a Distracting Dagger from DM. Which won’t be replaced until CHT for OH. In fact, if you get CHT, I would use it in MH and Distracting Dagger in OH.
If you want to be certain for Scarlet > Electrified you can check out the sim spreadsheet in the rogue disc.

Depends if he has muggers or ACLG but if he doesnt than DD is a good choice. Personally I rather get muggers and go GG mh bonescraper oh.
Distracting Dagger will be the single best weapon you can use until you get Aged Core Leather Gloves. And even after that its still a good dagger in its own right.
If Shadows has either, yeah.
Could technically go GG MH/SK OH with Muggers. I feel DD goes further than Muggers though.
A Bonescraper would be nice for OH too
Yeah, ACLG + DD is a really nice combo and makes getting the required hit smoother. Until then a Muggers + DD could be nice too. Once Shadows nabs ACLG, could swap Muggers to a Cloudrunner or t1/2
Bad advice.
I am assuming Combat Daggers. Only 1 piece of weapon skill gear should be enough.
True for combat daggers 100% but without the tp’s in expertise the extra weapon skill is nice to mitigate glancing blows
To expand for a lvl 63 mob,
Yellow hit cap at 300 ws = 9% hit
Yellow hit cap at 305 ws = 6% hit
Weapon skill lessens the amount of reduction for glancing blows.
Glancing blow reduction at 300 ws = 35%
Glancing blow reduction at 305 ws = 15%
Glancing blow reduction at 308 ws = 5%
Glancing blow reduction at 315 ws = 5%
Weapon skill has a softcap around 308.
That’s why you only need one piece of +ws gear when you have expertise

Yes, I am combat daggers and have ACLG.
Yes, I understand.
In that case, you don’t need a Distracting Dagger. It’s still decent overall regardless, but you’ll never unequip ACLG from my understanding.
Thus you can rock SK in your OH and GG in MH until your next raid upgrades. Aim for Perdi and CHT. If you’re raiding BWL, DFB is a great MH too.

Felstriker. :-^)
DFB is good MH and OH.
Agreed, but would it be better in OH than Perdi MH CHT OH?
I’ve got to sim that to see if I should swap
PvE dagger bis is perds MH DFB OH but CHT is very close.
