Title: Dagger of Winds Vs. Spirits
Post by Alterno on 11/10/03 at 20:24:23

The Vampiric (and fairly expensive):

Library info for Dagger of the Winds:
Base damage: 20, Can be used by: thieves, Description: The main attraction of the Windia Weapon's shop. A golden blade coated in feathers that feels extremely light to hold and appears to be quite dangerous. The Windia people claim the dagger has been inbued with the power of wind, Level needed to equip it: 25, Magical: No, Vamparic: 0.2, Armor: 0, Strength modifier: 0, Intelligence modifier: 0, Dexterity modifier: 0, Constitution modifier: 0, Wisdom modifier: 0, Charisma modifier: 0, Poison chance: 0, Poison/30s damage: 0, Monster damage table: , Mana leech: .

And the more common:

Base damage: 27, Can be used by: thieves, Description: This dagger was originally crafted as a ceremonial athame wielded by members of the Council of Mages during summonings and other large scale spellcastings. Stolen by members of the Scarlet Daggers, this piece was rumored to have been lost in a raiding party when the group was ambushed by one of the various creatures of the desert., Level needed to equip it: 28, Magical: No, Vamparic: No, Armor: 0, Strength modifier: 0, Intelligence modifier: 0, Dexterity modifier: 0, Constitution modifier: 0, Wisdom modifier: 0, Charisma modifier: 0, Poison chance: 0, Poison/30s damage: 0, Monster damage table: , Mana leech: .

Dagger of the winds is a priceless training/fighting weapon for level 25-27 thieves but I'd never put one on anything over level 27 (not even for training as the extra 7 base damage counts for a lot)

I used to use 6 thieves each with a DoTW. And i could almost train anywhere.. If i had 8 or 9 27+'s i could have trained in the desert with no cleric..

Depends on what you wish to do with your thieves in my opinion. If your main objective is to train, I would definately recommend the Dagger of the Winds. They are well worth the cost and will pay for themselves in time. I do use the Dagger of Spirits on short jaunts where the monster damage is little or if there is a cleric in my party, for the most part, I would stick with Dagger of the Winds on my teams regardless of level 25 or Arch.

Good day to you,
Amy of Draco

Tried and tested many a time in the Draco Keep. Spirits nearly always win over DoTW's in fights.
As for training, Amy is right, DoTW's are far far better than Spirits.
