    Default Assassin - Dagger bonuses?

    I've heard conflicting reports of assassins getting bonuses to wielding daggers beyond their class powers.

    Is this accurate?

    If so does anyone know what precisely those bonuses are?

    Also does wielding a shield or a non-dagger in the off hand cancel those bonuses?

    wikia lists amount as 5x before class power and 5+2--> 7x after.
    So far rolled 15 casters with RoDS and shamelessly killed them within 200 turns. For eternium glory!
    (after 15 I stopped counting...)

    That's just for backstabbing right? They dont get a standard bonus as far as I recall?

    They start with skills in dagger and thrown dagger 4-5 marks.
    No flat +hit/+damage or skill reduction cost but ...

    I realize that, I've played the class numerous times. But I was seeking clarification from what ghostjghost and soirana were saying about 5x/7x dmg, which in my memory should be refering to backstab multiplier.

    Ahh yes, can get a bit rediculous.

    However, you may well have to swap weapons on a failed backstab if you don't have a seriously good dagger so can be a bit fiddly.
    Also a lot of good daggers are iron.
