Question Assassin Advantage in Dwarven Boxing?

Just curious.
I mean the brass knuckles technically count as Daggers... don't they?

What with my large investment in Dagger Mastery, I was fairly sure that I saw Chae Soon pull off a few double-strikes during the punching games... not to mention the effect of Critical Strikes.
The Kilroy Stonekin quests were a total walkover...

So am I just imagining that as an Assassin-player I had an advantage at that game..... or is it really unbalanced in favour of the natural dual-wielders?

Assassins have an advantage, especially once you get the stronger brass knuckles that require the Dagger attribute.

there is an advantage, as they benefit from critical strikes using those knuckles, but the difference is very minor since it's not a real pvp arena.

I was focusing more on whether high Dagger Mastery would itself allow double-striking and increase the critical hit ratio.

yes, assassins land more critical strikes using those brass knuckles with higher dagger mastery.
