Livid Dagger

The Livid Dagger is a Dungeon Sword. A popular choice for players due to its maximum Bonus Attack Speed, maximum Critical Chance, and backstab ability.

Previously when it was first released, this sword had potential to consistently outperform a Gilded Midas' Sword due to having more powerful abilities which allowed critical hits to deal 150% more damage on a backstab.

After a nerf, the base damage is marginally lower than an Aspect of the Dragons, but its Bonus Attack Speed which allows for twice the amount of hits per second makes it a sought after weapon both in and outside Dungeons. Although the Aspect of the Dragons has better base stats, the Livid dagger is still considered to be a better weapon because the max critical chance and max Attack speed allow the user to reforge the weapon, armor, and talisman to increase damage rather than Critical chance or Attack speed.

Obtaining
The Livid Dagger is a weapon that can be unlocked in the Dungeon Post-Boss Chest or by killing Livid 150 times. It costs 7 million coins (or 5.6 million coins if Mayor Paul is elected) to buy this weapon from a Dungeons Reward Chest.

Trivia

 * The ability of the sword is very similar to the backstab ability of the Thief in Advanced Dungeons and Dragons.
 * Before the September 24, Livid Dagger Patch, this item was one of the best items in the game, outclassing both a Gilded Midas' Sword and a Warped Aspect of the End.
 * The same patch also fixed a bug where hitting a dragon always counting as a backstab despite its position.
 * You can hit mythological creatures without the required Griffin pet using its ability
