The Duelist's Needle is a Demon Unique rapier with no boss attached: it drops in Adventure Mode once you are level 52 or higher, and keeps dropping there however far you go. Every copy is item level 57, and there 0.6% of what falls comes up Unique. It is built on Tempered Duelist's Rapier — step 4 of the Duelist's Rapier line, item level 45 and up.
It always rolls the same numbers: +56 Power, +7% Critical Chance, +4% Melee Lifesteal, +9% Critical Chance, +6% Movement Speed, +8% Critical Chance, +17% Attack Speed and +9% Power.
One Unique drop in 40 is a Mythical copy: the same item carrying 15–25% Mythical Energy that boosts every stat on it and can never be changed; the 15% floor is 10 times as common as the perfect 25%.
On top of that it carries The Duelist's Needle — Your Main reaches 40% further and its built-in crit chance is 30% higher.
Wearing it hands you Skewer.
“It ends conversations from a courteous distance.”
