I've been hunting after these daggers for some time now but they've eluded me. Most people usually merch them so they're next to impossible to find from a player. I'm wondering where I should farm. I've seen Margonites, Tusked Howlers, and Ranger class bugs in NF all drop them. I don't know whether I should farm under HM or NM. Does HM increase the chance or golds or does NM have a better chance to drop blue skins? I'm sure HM has a higher chance to drop max damage items but if the daggers are purple or gold all the time I'd rather go back to farming NM.

Any tips suggestions etc are welcome.

(Please no flaming about the type of item I'm farming for. I know it's different but hat's exactly why I want them. And them being Blue/Common skinned insc Max Steel daggers, not Purple/Gold rarity.)

although the skin is usually adributed to the blue/common rarity, the skin you are looking for can rarely be found on golds and purples.
just keep looking, i'll look out for some also

I'd vote to farm in normal mode, because in HM the drops are usually rarer which means more golds & purps, less blues and whites

Those aren't likely the blue skin that I'm after. The image is broken so i'm not about to bid 20k on ugly gold steel daggers.

What skin exactly do you need? Because if you just need blue maxxed daggers, just get them from a collector

http://www.guildwarsguru.com/sjeng/

The skins available are: Dirks, Butterfly Knives, Bronze Daggers, Crude Daggers, Arrowblade Daggers, Korambits.
They all have set stats, so no inscriptions, but you can choose any skin with any mod, and they're free ^^

Just got a pair, Req8, 7-16 (I seriously doubt there are max). If you're interested, contact me.

EDIT: Hm nvm they are white and thus non-inscribable.

I clearly stated blue steel daggers. There's no such thing as lesser steel daggers in PvE. The skin varies by the rarity.

Yeah. I've been searching as well. Closest was a req 9 7-15 blue so far. Found a req 8 7-16 today but no spot for Insc.

Anyways, let's keep the hunt going.

You could use tournament RP's for a set, right? Might want to give that a go.
