Uniques/Main Hand/The Wasp's Argument

The Wasp's Argument is a Demon Unique dagger with no boss attached: any drop at Threat 10 or higher can turn out to be it, and at that Threat 0.8% of what falls comes up Unique. It is built on Tempered Cindersting Dagger — step 4 of the Cindersting Dagger line, item level 45 and up.

It always rolls the same numbers: +11 Power, +9% Fire Damage, +4% Melee Lifesteal, +16% Power, +10% Fire Damage, +16% Melee Damage, +10% Attack Speed and +16% Fire Damage.

On top of that it carries The Wasp's Argument — Fang Flurry stabs a 90° wider arc and hits 2 more enemies each stab, but 20% softer.

It is Adventure Mode loot.

Wearing it hands you Fang Flurry.

“Never one sting. Never the same place.”
