Guild Wars 2

I don’t know if anyone had ever made a post for this but sometimes people talk about that.
Why there’s not Life Force generation in our Dagger Offhand?
Is the only weapon that can’t generate Life Force (looked in a offhand position).
That make the dagger bad for spvp still if grant condi transfer and a weakness AoE.
Our core mechanic is all to obtain LF and use the Shroud to deal our best damage.

There’s 2 chances:
1) 4% LF for every enemy you hit with Deathly Swarm (skill 4), that can work similar to focus skill 4, still if that skill don’t bounce if there’s only one enemy (will be: dagger 3 bounces=12% LF, focus 4 bounces=12% LF)

Or

2) 3% LF for every enemy you hit with Enfeebling Blood. That will be good in PvE and WWW, and balanced in sPvP where you don’t always hit more than 2 enemies with this skill. (maximum LF generated if you hit 5 enemies: 15%)

That will make the Dagger Offhand viable in more situations.

What do you think?

How would number 2 interact with EB on shroud entrance from trait? It does look somewhat wrong to get LF on entrance.

That is true, I don’t looked at that trait.
Simply ANet can change the trait to “inflict weakness AoE in a radious of 240 when entering Shroud”. Not a big change.

1+ for a lf generator on dagger offhand.

Dagger o/h needs a lot of work : /

Number 2 is ideal, would buff a curses gm and dagger would be good enough at that point.
