This guy really sucked. Twice I had an 80+ dam suit with -60 saves and 1200+ hp and gifted it away. Played poorly this entire character's life, got unlucky too.

after I hero'd you in ruins of the deep. I've thought about duergar dagger for hero range before, how did it go?

I've played multiple hero duergar dagger specs - I really wish I had gone whip/mace with this one. I had such a hard time getting skullcrusher edge, and cranial is really quite unreliable without it.

When Fort is full of big storm warriors, and buff melee chars, dagger is great. When it's full of paladins and mages, it's the pits. Just the makeup of the cabals didn't lend itself well to dagger this time - once I got a norem exotic, it wasn't coming out of my hand. Evil has it a little rougher than good with HPM, because so many of the good exotics are wrath, and good has shining blue crystal as well as using claw of the dracolich. I wouldn't play this combo again.

Surprised this dude didn't work out for you.

And yes. You are totally correct about cranial/skullcrusher and everything you said about it.
