After reading the 'Soloing Bosses With An Assassin' thread, I decided to go try and farm some Daggers of Xuekao. After about 6 or 7 tries I got them. Now my question is, which daggers should I use?? Should I use Xuekao or Shreader's? Here's my build, forgot who posted it.

A/W
Dag 15
SA 10
Crit 9

Vipers Defense
Shadow Refuge
Flashing Blades (Got it today, didn't even know what elites were lol)
Jagged Strike
Fox Fangs
Twisting Fangs
Dark Escape
Rez Sig

may i ask how you got him alone? But not shreaders...because they are +15% damage whiled target is hexed...and you have no hexes....so Xuekao ftw

Make your own daggers. Find clean max dmg with the skin you want. And purchase or salvage the upgrades.

zealous FTW

I didn't beat him alone, I was just reading the thread and it brought to my attention that you could get the daggers by beating him. I beat him with 7 henches.

uhhhh..........you can do that?

yes but warning it would be a lot more costly especially if you want the dmg +15% while health above 50%. Making those from crafter cost some serious bank. Then buying the upgrades could be costly.

What i did was just use daggers that i found from drops and chests. then waited to get the green end of game daggers. but that is just me.

For example lets say you find Zealous Oni Daggers. You can use an expert salvage kit to try to salvage out the zealous dagger tang. You may get it or you may not. That is one way.

I craft my dagger, the end game Sai the give extra 5 energy. with zealous tang and fortitude handle, I have plenty of energy to give a lot of combo

Vahn Roi · Jul 06, 2006, 06:38 AM // 06:38

I build my weapons, right now I'm working on a pair of 15^50 Zealous Butterfly Knives of Defense

90 AL while attacking FTW

Everthorn's Chakrams anyone?

LOL yanman shameless plug. Oh and I have actually killed xuekao A LONE.. oh and AJ next time you out and kill Xuekao, use a signet of capture and cap Assassin's Promise.

Dark Tykane · Jul 06, 2006, 07:38 AM // 07:38

He's easy to solo with a good 55 build k.
There's ways to make it so the Am Fah necromancer doesnt show his ugly face or his barbed signet

I got those Sai for my Me/A IW assassin, then I added an Enchanting upgrade, really good for the build, but Im still looking for a crippling tang.

Tingi · Jul 06, 2006, 11:17 PM // 23:17

i use mainly the end game green ceremonial daggers

wilebill · Jul 07, 2006, 01:30 AM // 01:30

End of game ceremonial daggers and Chkkr's Pincers.

Bloodied Blade · Jul 07, 2006, 01:44 AM // 01:44

I really wanna get a pair of those Ceremonial Daggers... Chkkr's Pincers would be nice but I would like to be A/Mo for that with Watchful Spirit so that I wouldn't need to swap weapons for combos.

Valerius · Jul 07, 2006, 04:18 AM // 04:18

i'd go with Chkkr's Pincers instead of Ceremonial Daggers if you can't have both... just cause' Chkkr's Pincers deal Slashing Damage which is least defended against

Kijik Oni Hanryuu · Jul 07, 2006, 05:31 AM // 05:31

Shiro's Blades FTW XD oh when I said I killed Xuekao alone, I meant as I killed him alone with my sin..

I'm a long way from getting ceremonial daggers. My Monk chose the Aegis so I could sell it. I still have it and would gladly trade it for some ceremonial daggers...(hint...hint).
I have Kenshi's Butterfly daggers. They're okay but you can do better. The one I use the most though is a Kaineng sai with a zealous tang and a +6 armour against elemental attacks. I take a lot of abuse sometimes from that sort of damage. I thought it would help and it seems to be doing just that. Total cost for everything was about 10,700 k. Pretty decent price for a max damage 'sin' weapon. I like it.
