Hmmmmm would still like a GM answer..R9 isn't available and therefore don't think those dags should even exist.
Its a reskin dagger.. those are not the real stats. When reskin was first attempted they didnt know how to change what the skin says. The Dagger stats stay the same, but say what the skin would be if it was real. Its not real. Just a bad first attempt reskin from back in the day.
If you get defeated by these ppl its because they know their chars and use their skills properly. Not because of the R9 skin on their R8 daggers.
