A [[dagger spammer]] is an unofficial term describing a [[build]] based around repeatedly using the fastest-recharging [[Assassin]] [[Attack Chain]], which are the [[dagger attack]]s [[Jagged Strike]], [[Fox Fangs]], and [[Death Blossom]].

Since two out of the three [[attack]]s sport a low [[activation time]], all have low [[energy]] cost, and [[dual attack]] always strike twice, this dagger attack chain provides one of the fastest [[attack speed]]s available to the player, as well as one of the highest [[skill]] use frequency, for a decently low energy cost. Death Blossom also provides a source of [[AoE]] damage.

This attack speed is usually further increased by an [[IAS]] such as [[Drunken Master]].

This allows to effectively:
* Make full use of skills that increase damage, such as [["I am the Strongest!"]].
* Rapidly build adrenaline for skills such as [["Save Yourselves!"]].
* Frequently trigger on-[[attack]] effects, such as [[Barbs]] or on-[[skill]] effects such as [[Double Dragon]].

Due to the energy cost, dagger spammer builds usually need some form of [[energy management]] which usually consists of on-attack energy gain effects such as [[zealous]] daggers, or energy cost reduction effects such as [[Way of the Empty Palm]].

Dagger spammers are vulnerable to [[disable|skill disabling]] and/or [[shutdown]], and their rapid attack speed makes especially vulnerable to [[punish]]ment, e.g. from [[Quicksand]] or [[Empathy]].
