Build:A/any PvE Dagger Spammer

The PvXwiki community finds this to be an excellent build. If you disagree with this rating, please discuss it on the build's talk page. This build has been designed for the following use: PvE general

This build is part of the current PvE meta. Remove this tag if it is no longer used in the current PvE meta.

<pvxbig> PvE Dagger Spammer utilizes 1/2 casting time attacks to both deal quick repeatable damage and trigger skills such as [[Mark of Pain] or [[Barbs]. Because [[Moebius Strike] is unnecessary in this build, it frees up the elite slot to allow for a more versatile build. </pvxbig>
