  Dagger 

  A Dagger path has been added to the One-Handed path. They function as an opportunistic weapon that sets up huge damage windows. Back attacks gain increased damage, critical strike chance and critical strike damage.  Unblocked attacks stack a bleed up to four times, the next power attack after the stacks have been applied consumes them, and applies a massive bleed for 8 seconds, putting the enemy in a vulnerable state where all backstab bonuses now apply regardless of where the enemy is hit. Dagger bleeds scale with One-Handed level. 

  []Find the Gap(30): Unblocked dagger attacks apply a light bleed that stacks up to 4 times and striking an enemy from behind increases attack damage and critical chance by 25% and critical damage by 50%.[/]

  []Find the Gap(70): Unblocked dagger attacks apply a light bleed that stacks up to 4 times and striking an enemy from behind increases attack damage and critical chance by 50% and critical damage by 100%.[/]

  [*]Twist the Knife(50): At maximum Bleed stacks, your next power attack consumes all Bleed effects on the target, ripping their wounds open for heavy Bleed and poise damage and leaving them Vulnerable
