Are daggers OP?

They are very fast, have relatively high range, have burst damage weapon with perfect accuracy and can pass over water. Especially the combination of speed and skirmishing armament is the issue. Reducing their speed or range or both would help.

I've been seeing glaives trading about evenly with dagger recently. Maybe I'm not good enough at the dagger micro though.

Raiders are often match deciding in 1v1 and small team games.

It depends on the map and the number of players.

The less players, bigger, and flatter the map, the stronger they are.

Borderline OP in those situations I think. Very hard to deal with except with kodachis.

Otherwise they are fine.

And yes... they are one of the units I am wary of as air.

mass daggers can be strong when used as a suprise weapon, but enemy can adapt to it quickly and it becomes useless

Does this discussion have a real focal point? Why would a dagger be OP? They lose every direct raider to raider engagement solo. What specifically would make them OP?

Yes this is pedantic, but I don't think any message in this thread actually says why dagger is strong and convinces me it needs changing. If you pull it's speed slower than another raider bam, irrelevant unit in raider combat. Range? Also bam, very hard to actually hit a broadside. That does more than 600 damage on a single target. You want a 2% change? So it still does the thing but it's even more elitist to pull off?

What that dagger does now should it not be able to do?

Daggers are very good. But they are not the best raider (and certainly not OP). They suffer significantly from poor turn rate, they don't have good dps, they struggle against lotuses and in low numbers they lose against the other raiders.
