Dagger Warrior Job Adv.

So.. I was thinking about making a dagger using warrior for a couple of months, then I decided to. It is low-Dex, enough to equip daggers and the rest into Str. This allows me to wield both warrior armour and Str daggers, which is what I hoped would happen.

It's just that, the thing is.. I don't know what job to advance to.

Skills useable with Str daggers:

Fighters: Rage, Power Guard
Pages: Threaten, Power Guard
Spearmen: Iron Will, Hyper Body

Crusader: Combo Attack, Shout, Armour Crash
White Knight: Magic Crash
Dragon Knight: Power Crash, Sacrifice, Dragon Blood, Dragon Roar, Elemental Resistance

I highly doubt I will get to 3rd job, because my dagger warrior is just a side project that I'm not going to worry much about. Fighter seems appealing, because of Rage and Power Guard (and Combo, if ever), but Spearmen get Hyperbody, making them more wanted (3rd job skills don't seem to be [i]too[/i] useful). Pages are pretty much out of the question, because I think the other two jobs could perform better.

[b]Summary:[/b] Dagger warrior, what class should I advance to? (2nd job)

[quote=Alyssaur]Soul Rade, Soul Driver, Brandish, Panic, and Coma don't work with a dagger. Just a heads up, any type you choose with be stuck with PS and SB forever.

Buffs like PG, rage, HB, and threaten work fine.[/quote]

You forgot: Dawn Warriors don't have PG...

I would go fighter because in my opinion rage and power guard are the most useful two of them all (you really won't need HB because your not gonna be fighting super strong stuff most likely).

Go the Hero route. Elemental skills don't work with a dagger and neither do most of the DrK skills.

Shout, Combo attack, and advanced Combo Attack all still work with a dagger. You'll be nerfed and not as strong as most Warrior, but stil one of the strongest odd-builds.

Actually, this is for the Beginner section, it just doesn't say oddbuilds there. It's known and accepted in the community.
Lurk moar.
