[QUOTE="ronin, post: 3833175, member: 4872"] My last character used 2 daggers as his primary weapons. IIRC he was a rogue 3/ fighter 2/ swordsage 1/ invisible blade 5/ homemade PrC that basically gave 4 sneak attack dice similar to nightsong enforcer (I think) and some misc bonuses. The few things that helped with the damage were as follows- - a war based campaign against alot of "sneak attackable" opponents - the craven feat from Champions of Ruin - the shadow blade feat from Bo9S - the island of blades stance from Bo9S - a pair of holy daggers I always wanted to get assassin's stance but island of blades was working so good I didn't want to change stances. All I needed was to find an ally and be adjacent to an enemy and I was set. When I couldn't do this I'd either feint or use one of my few manuevers. I think the main two were distracting ember and cloak of deception. I was almost always able to sneak attack and my average damage in the end was about 70 hit points a hit. I think in the end I was doing 1d4 + 9d6 (sneak attack) + 2d6 (holy) + 25 (craven + shadow blade) on a successful strike. Even when I couldn't sneak attack I was doing 1d4 + 2d6(holy) + 8 (shadow blade) which wasn't bad. So, I never got to use assassin's stance but I highly suggest island of blades! [/QUOTE]
