Welcome everyone to this ranking of daggers in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey! If you are a fan of daggers then you should certainly enjoy this article. I am myself a huge fan of daggers and I always use them, so let me present to you my opinion on the best ones in the game!
1. Edge of Time (Good)
The Edge of Time Dagger wielded by Kassandra
Go check this weapon out:
The Edge of Time is a legendary dagger. Both beautiful and deadly at the same time, it makes for a perfect weapon to use. Swift in killing and boosting Assassin Damage, these main perks create a truly great gear to use with an Assassin Build.
If you are a fan of Assassin Builds, you have invested in Assassin Abilities and you rely on stealth, then the Edge of Time will greatly complement your gameplay. For me, it was not as useful, since its extra boost was not useful at all, but other than that Edge of Time is a very strong weapon.
Edge of Time Strengths:- boosts Assassin Damage
- boosts Adrenaline per Hit
- reduces cooldowns
- looks badass
- perfect for Assassin Builds
How to get Edge of Time:
To obtain Edge of Time you will have to progress the first episode of the DLC “Legacy of the First Blade. Your objective throughout the first episode will be finding the Huntsman. After you successfully beat him and finish the quest “Protector of Persia” you will receive this dagger.

2. Atlantean Blade (Strong)
The legendary Atlantean Blade

The Atlantean Blade is a truly special dagger in AC Odyssey. You can get it through a specific, seemingly unimportant questline but yet it is so worth it. A perfect weapon to use when you like to supplement your offensive with additional Hunter Damage.
This particular dagger is very well-balanced for me, as it boosts different things and allows me for a diverse style of play. I used it a lot after getting it and it allowed me to be very flexible. I could easily deal damage from far away with a bow, but at the same time, I could take a lot of enemies at once and fight them off successfully.
Atlantean Blade Strengths:
- boosts Hunter Damage
- boosts CRIT Damage
- boosts Armor Penetration
- well-balanced perks

Complete all the quests and at the end of the last one you will be able to get the blade. The last quest from Phidias’s line is called “A Journey’s End” so be sure to finish it.

This dagger is a little bit extra on our list. You cannot get it regularly like all the other daggers but when you do get it, it is really useful. It has some great stats and can be very useful for your style of play.
Personally, this weapon is very good for me. It is strictly offensive and lets you deal more damage at your own expense. I love such gambles, so overall this weapon is great for me and its stats combine very well with my style of play.
The Greek Hello strengths:
- boosts Assassin Damage

The Dagger of Kronus - a truly fitting weapon for an assassin

The Dagger of Kronus is probably the best dagger you can use in the game for a typical Assassin Build. If that is your style of play, then you definitely have to get Dagger of Kronus. A truly deadly weapon, perfect for any assassin and boosting the best aspects of Assassin Build.
I have used it a few times and when I was playing the game using an Assassin Build, the Dagger of Kronus was my number one weapon. It boosts all the important aspects, it gives a great advantage to playing stealthily and it is simply an awesome weapon. I certainly recommend it to you.
Dagger of Kronus Strengths:

The Arachne’s Stingers, the most poisonous dagger in the game

The best dagger in the game? Might be and at least for me it definitely is. Arachne’s Stingers is the perfect weapon for anyone who likes to use a quick and deadly weapon that is poisonous at the same time. It is one of the most lethal combinations in the whole Assassin’s Creed Odyssey.
Obviously, for me, this dagger is the best one in the game. It has everything that I love about the daggers and it supplements my style of play perfectly. I love to play with Poison Abilities, I love to deal Poison Damage and I always try to go with a lot of Assassin Abilities so this weapon is perfect for me.

If you don’t see anyone like that on your list, just try hunting down mercenaries and eventually, you will find the one with “The Weaver” in their name.
Arachne’s Stingers stats:
- Stats for level: 50
