Twilight Dagger

The Twilight Dagger is a unique melee weapon at B tier — a must-have in any rogue's inventory. One swing, one hit: 25 damage, 15 stagger, 2.8-block reach and a soft 500 knockback, all in a light package in the Mage archetype.

What makes it special is hidden in testing: it fires a wave on every other hit, which is why community numbers look the way they do — roughly 336 DPS jumping with Lightning Surge, and a notable 310 DPS with no enchantment at all. Testers calculated a theoretical ceiling near 589 if every hit could trigger a wave, but the every-other-hit rhythm is the real number to build around. As with all such testing, this is single-target dummy data.

It drops in Howling Woods, The Deep Dark and Rainy Plains. It is also the base weapon for Sculker's Bane, its soul-damage unique roll, so farming Twilight Daggers doubles as hunting one of the best soul-build weapons in the game.

Testers also measured roughly 310 DPS with no enchantment at all, and calculated a much higher theoretical ceiling if waves could trigger on every hit. The alternating-hit rhythm is the practical limit — plan your Minecraft Dungeons II Enchanting Guide choices around it rather than against it.
