Does windborne dagger work when a dagger is equipped in the offhand? --The preceding unsigned comment was added by 208.91.28.66 (talk).

Whilst it hasn't been tested yet (at least not shared with the wiki), the description doesn't imply it must be a main-hand dagger. Off-hand dagger would actiavte this trait if the description is accurate. - Infinite - talk 19:37, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
"When weilding a dagger" Does that mean your character must have it unsheathed? Does the trait even activate when out of combat? --The preceding unsigned comment was added by 46.198.99.145 (talk).
Signets like Signet of Shadows grant their passive effects even when out of combat, so I see no reason to believe traits wouldn't work in the same way. Mediggo 08:30, 20 June 2012 (UTC)

This skill is bugged/not working at all at the moment.[edit]

After some testing it´s clear to me that the skill does not give ANY speed bonus atm. Running for 22 seconds straight in the HoM without any weapon equipped and Windborne Dagger deactivated. Running for 22 seconds on the same way/distance with Windborne Dagger active with either: both hands dagger, only main hand dagger, only offhand dagger and even unsheathed. Running short under 20 seconds on the same way/distance when "signet of air" is equipped. Last but not least there is no noticeable change in speed or animation when using the skill during the game.

Conclusion: Windborne Dagger does not give any speed bonus as it is now.

I support this, I just changed my traits and while moving changed from dagger to staff and back, completely no change in speed. Not sure it is meant to apply to speed during combat, then the text is wrong. It also should state if it does not add with other speed bonuses.--192.168.104.82 10:35, 22 September 2012 (UTC)
I also agree with this conclusion, i could get no noticeable effect from applying this trait to my character. --Chronocook 26 September 2012 The preceding unsigned comment was added by Chronocook (talk • contribs).
It does work, just tested it. It doesn't work outside of combat though. The in-game description is incomplete. -- Me 25 November 2012 --The preceding unsigned comment was added by 76.174.4.77 (talk).
