main hand: 1) thrust: stab your foe causing bleeding
2) gut shock: use the butt of your knife to shock your foe, stunning them (can interrupt attacks)
3) poison injection: poison your foe and cause weakness
off hand: 4) vibroblade: your knife vibrates at a high frequency, causes vulnerability
5) magnetic blade: all missile attacks are attracted to your knife for (x) seconds, block any projectiles

with the scrapper elite skill, we now have one melee weapon that is not a kit, i think we need more

Personally I’m hoping for a mace rather than daggers.

I am hoping they actual do something new with daggers and have the Dagger Elite Spec cover both main-hand and off-hand daggers.

Main-hand or Off-hand only makes the Elite Spec feel a bit cut-short on what it can provided compare to a Elite Spec that has a two-handed weapon that can cover all 5 weapon slots unless the weapon was specifically designed only for Off-hand use like focus, shields, and warhorns.

Honestly I think that launching expansion with single specialisation was very bad idea. Since it shoehorned every class to single role (with some exceptions).

I wouldn’t mind dagger for engi, but I won’t expect it as condi weapon (last few times they buffed condi output of base engi). Currently engi need something for team (something good, because if it is weak, it will end like Glint).
Also quite unexplored are class unique debuffs (I won’t use word “conditions”), so maybe (acid burns, armour shattering, blood thinning poisoning)…

^ mine is on power\support

And hopefully no a.i. Use the pylons you showed at the stream way back when and make em “banners” that heck i dunno… debuff foes and buff the allies. Sorta like turrets that dont suck…or attack directly
