It would be a good weapon switch for bosses so you can attack while your poison from P dagger ticks away, though I think I'd still stick with blabkbogs or fleshripper for my main weapon of choice.

It would be a great weapon for a throw mancer ( a bow/melee varient) if it wasn't etherial. Since it is you gotta be really careful not to use them all up.

It's a worthy alternative to the uniques though I do miss some ITD or -defense there. At least it has got AR to compensate.

pdagger sux, i've heard without the bug. i personally dunno anything about pdagger, never used it myself

possibly, and maybe this is a n00b question, but possibly since that dagger is etheral, you may want to put zod in it? or is that impossible?

It replenishes quantity. Which means you don't have to worry about using it up. Also, it's neither necessary nor possible to Zod it.

I am folowing the meleemancer guide sticked on this forum , that says that it is a physical dmg concentrated build. Since damage on this weapon compared with Doom runeword , i think it must be great . Backbogs is nice because of +skills , but strait dmg is too low , i think. The only problem here is no IAS :grrr: , but , i think using right gear would solve this problem.
What do you think ?
Any suggestions on other gear for melee necro ?

Thanks to all.

The AR bonus still works well with Dagger class weapons. If you are going for a Daggermancer then PDagger is almost a requirement. Mind you that you can't throw the knife with PDagger.

If you are going for a physical damage build then this is indeed a good weapon. It does lack IAS so you need to compensate with your other gear. About 32% will give you a nice and useable speed. Also try to get some CB, DS or OW on your gear for faster killing against the harder targets in the later acts, Duress comes to mind.

Blackbog's is a good dagger for a Daggermancer relying on his poison damage. The +skills give a great boost in poison damage, while still allowing you to use PDagger.

Kyo and I should really trademark this:

FLESHRIPPA PWN JOO!

Seriously, IMO Fleshripper is the nicest daggermancer weapon. If I found a high eth one I'd zod it in a heartbeat (IIRC they can be eth)
