heya m8,
I cant answer on the Shade forums arymore (need special access), so i'll do it here.
The silver tail daggers will last you until lvl 40ish, then you could probably get into a desent QL ITD and Compressed Blade
The silver tail daggers go as high as QL 15 (Notum-Infused Silvertail Dagger) and it takes no tradeskills what so ever to make them.
I made my daggers from two x ql 12 horn (turned into ql 15 daggers)
And if cogs didnt have the horns for ya i think i got a few to spare
If you have any questions what so ever, just send stillhaa or xhero a tell in game and we'll sort everything out
Cheers
Stillhaa
