What build would be fun with a 400+ pdps dagger?
I bought a 402 phys dps dagger (Sai) for very cheap and leveled an ES Assassin Blade Flurry with chaos emphasis to lvl 93. It was/is okay. But really not that enthralling. Clearing trash is not so much fun but it takes down bosses fairly well... that is, except for guardians. For some reason, I have a hard time killing guardians with this build. I don't know what it is. My howa build or my Brutus build takes them down WAY faster. But regardless, I'm guessing that a different build might utilize this beautiful dagger in all its glory.
So here's what I think went wrong. 1. Should have made a Raider blade flurry with 8 frenzy charges. Since the Sai doesn't have crit bonuses (instead it has block intrinsic), I should have concentrated on maximizing physical damage thru frenzy charges instead of the usual Shadow/Crit route. or 2. I should find a way to convert the phys damage to elemental and scale the elemental. i.e. I am currently building a frost blades raider for this purpose. Using frost blades and taking Weapon Cold Damage/Winter Spirit on the passive tree gives me 100% conversion to cold. or 3. I need to think out-of-the-box and come up with a wacky different build. Like dagger cyclone or something. What do you think? Do you have a suggestion for me? I really would appreciate any input. Thank you all. Last bumped on May 28, 2017, 5:10:24 PM

Chaos may have been underwhelming against some of the Guardians because some of them are Immune to Poison.
Fun varies from person to person. If I had a 402 pdps dagger I would probably build a Flicker Strike Raider. Need game info? Check out the Wiki at: https://www.poewiki.net/

Flicker Strike. Interesting. I think I'll give this a go. Thanks.
