Uniques/Main Hand/Snareline

Snareline is a Nightmare Unique dagger, hunted from The Spider King in the Mortal Arena, always at item level 120. It is one of four Exceptional drops on its list — 2.5% of the Uniques that boss gives up, about 1 in 40 — and every kill rolls the list 5 times. It is built on Sovereign Gallowsjest Dagger — step 6 of the Gallowsjest Dagger line, item level 80 and up.

It always rolls the same numbers: +56 Power, +6% Critical Chance, +16% Projectile Damage, +14% Poison Damage, +44% Projectile Damage, +44% Poison Damage, +13% Critical Chance and +58% Projectile Speed.

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 Snareline — Your Main is attuned to Poison, its knives chain 3 times and Envenom, and a full Venom spreads in Contagion, but each knife hits 20% softer.

It leans into Poison and Venom.

Wearing it hands you Knife Toss.

“The first knife finds you. The rest find each other.”
