No, the reason has already been stated. Daggers are the cheapest vendored 1 handed weapon, well clubs are the same price, but daggers weigh a lot less than a club. So you carry a handmade backpack full of 10 daggers and you have enough for a couple nights of adventuring.
In other words, economy.

a : thrifty and efficient use of material resources : frugality in expenditures; also : an instance or a means of economizing

Hi All,

From what I can gather, it seems like most people suggest using daggers as pet weapons. Is there a reason for this other than economy? Thanks in advance [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

economy + weight, if it was just economy people would have a backpack full of clubs. Most druids don't have 255 strength though so daggers are the most obvious choice. Has nothing at all to do with some necro pet myth.

Delicious.

You're trying and failing at splitting hairs to presumably save face over some incredibly trivial shit here.

Please cook me up a dissertation on the distinction of weight from the larger question of economy with a second course of outrage at my use of the word "trivial". Naturally, I'll take that served over the false premise that what started this is somehow mutually exclusive.

For dessert I'll have a further demonstration of your classic EQ ignorance to top off that bit about the necro pet "myth" above.

On the other hand you are accomplishing little more than terminology masturbation and gloating like a sophomoric English student.

You proposed in idea. Most people disagreed archaic logic is still being applied by educated players. You became upset and looked up the word "economy". Game...set...match? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

this is such a retarded thing to argue about but there are people in my guild who still believe that pet dps is affected by delay on p1999.

True.

Hrmmm, I had no clue. I stand corrected [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

For the record though rebutting with the definition of "economy" is still the most retarded thing I have seen since that clip of Taylor Swift rapping...

The only victory you have achieved is having half the thread readers digging through their User CP for ignore settings.

Next time aim for eloquence AND a point.

Really? My personal favorite is the guy tried to be cute by posting the definition of "myth" then quickly edited it when he realized he was utterly wrong and talking out of his ass.

I'm not sure eloquence is the word your looking for here. I should give you my unabridged thesaurus.

I've discovered that it just isn't economical to lug around a 4.5 pound book when I can just use the app on my phone.

Kisses.

Can't gloat without being victorious. Thanks for your support.

If you spent more time attempting to help people than acting like a smarmy fuck perhaps a rudimentary question could be answered in less than two pages.
Dismissive asshatery begat smarmy fuckery. Kill it at the root.

It has nothing to do with the "necro myth", which in reality was never a myth as it at one point TRULY was reality (hence the nerf).
My point exactly, your demonstrated lack of comprehension by believing you need to reiterate it to me.

Educated players? Like the one actually believed Necro pet delay be to be a myth or those who have consistently failed to comprehend the OP's request for an exception to the well understood matter of efficiency?

Got it.
