Has anyone played W/A with the daggers? to see if they did the fliping and the turning animations(while using skills ofcourse)

-Kind of late to be asking, but RL stuff kept me busy.

I played R/A and there was no magic flipping high flying maneover nor uber 1080 flipping attack, just...normal stabs, i guess its the same for the other class as well. A bit dissapointing indeed but i think its a good thing they left the "skilled technique" to the assasin :P ow well.. il play R/A again at the release neway even if she looks like an amateur.. the energy management was insane

R/A with high expertise(like around 15) and a zealous dagger = no energy reststops(I had like 25 energy 24/7)

My character is going to be a W/A and I played as one during the Preview. Yes, they flip.

When you attack, the male warrior will either just hit with his right-hand dagger like he would a sword or spin and attack twice. The female warrior has a tendency to stab rather than slash with the dagger, and her dual-attack animation is different in that she leaps forwards, hits the enemy and hits them one more time when jumping back. The male dual-attack looks better in my opinion.

When male W/A's use off-hand and lead attacks they turn their backs to the oppenents and spin around with an uppercut-styled attack with the right hand dagger. Don't remember the female attack skill animation, sorry.

I haven't tested all the dual-attack skills but when a male W/A uses Death Blossom he will jump, like, 2 meters into the air spinning with his daggers and lands with them both in an overhead-attack. The female Death Blossom is boring; a leap forward quadruple stabs/slash's and then leaps back.

Hope that helped.

Thank you

Anyway, if you plan on making a male W/A, make sure you get some big daggers. Small daggers look like, excuse me, shit. It just looks so stupid to have a hulking Goliath kill something with a pair of Sai.

My personal choice would be Plagueborn daggers or Hooked daggers, but it's all about preferance.
