I desperatedly wanted to find a dagger that poisoned just as my enemies were using against me. I never found one that wasn't iron or anti-good, and to make matters more challenging the better good-only daggers had to be taken off the corpses of evil pcs.

What I have come to realize is that to get pk wins, having multiple attacks that hit for devastates is not going to win you as many pks as a well-timed annhilate--the former allows too many chances to make the decision to flee, whereas that giant sword spec or AP only has to wait for that one big hit to land.

The one thing gnomes, elves, and dark-elves had going for them was Striking could help keep their giant-sized opponents from fleeing on a whim, but I see an edge has gone in to minimize that legacy's effectiveness. That's too bad.
