Dagger is the basic Dagger in Elden Ring. The Dagger scales primarily with Strength and Dexterity and is a good Weapon for short-ranged melee combat, and for when you need an extra lightweight utility weapon on hand.
A standard dagger with a straight blade.
Though modest in reach and capacity for harm, this weapon is light enough to jab in rapid succession and delivers devastating critical hits.
