Recommended Weapon Combinations

Greatsword

Greatsword is a fantastic melee partner for the Dagger. Both weapons share a common trend of providing mobility, hard crowd-control and burst damage. Both weapons can keep a player in check for several seconds at a time, using Skills such as “Stunning Blow” or “Shadow Strike” to hold an enemy down. Fortunately, the Passives from the Greatsword and the Dagger line-up well too, providing Critical Hit Damage, higher maximum HP pools and more. This set-up is the “Bruiser” of Throne and Liberty.

Crossbow

The Crossbow complement the Daggers as a partner in Throne and Liberty. Both weapons can utilize the “Off-Hand Weapon Chance” activations to deal increased damage, for example. However, another major factor is the unparalleled mobility the Crossbow can provide in the set-up. Both weapons rely on short ranges to succeed, making this combination an Assassin’s dream come true!

Most Weapons!

The Daggers in general quite honestly pair well with any weapon in the game currently. Daggers act as a perfect back-bar weapon, providing a ton of support, damage and Evasion.
