Guild Wars 2

I would love to Play my Little Asura mesmer as a Kind of [I]Arcane Trickster[/I] with 2 daggers.
But Mesmer cannot use daggers and I ask myself why not.
Elementalist and Necromant can use daggers, why not the Mesmer?
Dagger would be a perfectly suitable weapon for the class.

Mesmer melee is more of a duelist nature, so we get swords and an OH Pistol. Ele’s and Necros do not get either of those or the Greatsword. In fact, we get more weapon options than either if them do.

We can’t get everything, and I’m sure a large part of the initial decision not to give us daggers was to differentiate us from the other stealthy/tricky profession, Thieves.

That’s not to say we won’t get Daggers later though.

More weapon options would be great but there’s already a waiting list. I’m certain mainhand pistol will be first. I’m hoping a whip or shortbow will follow. After that, we can consider daggers.

Daggers are already one of the more popular weapons (can be used my 4 classes). Only the 1h Sword has 5.

I would personally like to see hammer or rifle get proliferated to new classes as they only have two.

pew pew rifle mesmer? :P sounds cool!

pew pew MH pistol mesmer sounds cooler!

Just waiting for a different ranged mainhand. Scepter ist just...meh.

I’ve always been a fan of knife throwing characters, so I think it would be interesting to have dual daggers but have the auto-attack be a throw. Maybe then we can get the old Illusionary Rogue back. He used to spawn and throw blinding daggers at enemies.

We’ll get new weapons eventually, and we have lots of options.

Because we got swords.

Swords > an elementalist’s kitchen knives.
