Astral Daggers are a pair of daggers that deal piercing and poison damage. They add crit chance and a good chance to poison on hit.

Enhancements by Level

Each upgrade at the Hunter raises a copy by one level and unlocks the next enhancement. The levels count from the copy's own level, so a level 9 copy unlocks them at levels 10 to 14. Rarity sets how many upgrades a copy takes: one for common, up to five for legendary.

Upgrade	Unlocks At	Enhancement	Effect
1	Level +1	Poison Damage	Adds Poison Damage equal to 10% of base damage

4	Level +4	Critical Strike Chance	+9% Critical Strike Chance

Special Ability

Riposte Kick: Lets the wielder perform a Kick attack shortly after parrying an enemy. It also deals Stamina Damage which fills the enemy's Stun Bar. Most daggers carry this ability, so a well-timed parry is the opening for a kick.

Lore

These quick daggers reflect the light of the stars above. An oval guard seems to float over the handle. It looks like the rings around a planet. Star themes run through Cinder's Cradle as well. There, the Ancients studied the sky in their Grand Planetarium and left telescopes and star riddles for their students.

Notes

Copies come in every rarity from Common to Legendary.
Like all daggers, it can follow a parry with a Riposte Kick that fills the enemy's stun bar.
