It says the daggers are randomly generated in stacks of 6d6, which would mean there would always be a minimum of 6, and as many as 36...  I typically find 5 or less at a time so I imagine it is really 1d6? arrows and darts on the other hand... [[User:MysterX|MysterX]] 09:54, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

Erosion of wooden daggers

I seem to recall that even though elven daggers are technically prone to erosion, most sources of burning/rotting don't affect weapons. Thus, except in a few very unusual circumstances, elven daggers are effectively erodeproof. Can someone confirm this? -- Killian 02:50, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

Is it just me...

...or have daggers become much, much weaker in SLASH'EM?

6d6 or 1d6?

It says the daggers are randomly generated in stacks of 6d6, which would mean there would always be a minimum of 6, and as many as 36... I typically find 5 or less at a time so I imagine it is really 1d6? arrows and darts on the other hand... MysterX 09:54, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
