Question: Shiro's Blades - Assassin Daggers
Zodiak
Hello
This has been something that I wanted to verify
Shiro's Blades
7-17 (req 15 daggers)
15% while health is over 50%
3 Life Stealing
-1 health regeneration
+30 health
Now here is the question. I have had people tell me that Shiro's Blades have an abnormally high percentage to execute a dual strike attack on their own. I dismissed this as fiction act first, but I have had more then one account of hearing this. The daggers do in fact have a very high dagger requirement, has anyone else experenced the same with these?

Maybe higher dagger mastery increases chances of dual attack?

High dagger mastery increasing chance of dual attacks is not an unfound hypotasis. High strength increases chance of piercing damage and Critical Eye increases chance of dealing critical damage so it would make sence.

High dagger mastery definitely increases your chance of a double strike. It doesn't have anything to do with weapon requirement, though, so far as I know.

Can anyone explain why they have an incredibly high requirement for weapons that arent that spectacular?

Maybe because only those with exceptional ability (such as Shiro) are able to use them? Exceptional ability -> high dagger mastery.

Its just strange to me, this wouild be a first in guildwars, seriously. No item, green or otherwise, has had an incredibly high requirement, just because of looks.
I believe there is another set of green daggers with 3/1 vampiric yet they dont have an abnormal requirement.
Only other thing comparable to this is the Sentinel armor, but that does have a visible effect, incredibly high armor value

they did it so other classes cannot take advantage of these daggers with */A secondary

if you can find another dagger like shiro's blades then you'll see why these are 15 req. You will see no other skin of daggers that look like 2 swords.
