Summary
The Pureblood Dagger is one of the many weapons that can be acquired in the Nightmare. It can be purchased at a price of 6,600,000 gold from MANAGER SUPREME in the MYSTERY STORE or as a possible reward from Guttermouth Cells.
In appearance, it is a short-bladed dagger with a jagged, blood-red blade attached to a gray, roughly-made handle. The jagged parts jutting from the blade and handle could resemble either dripping blood or the fangs of a blood-sucking vampire.
The normal slash attack is short-ranged but swift, consuming 1-2 stamina points each time. Each slash lasts about a second or less, allowing for the kind of rapid, frequent attacks one would expect from a dagger.
The special ability of the Pureblood Dagger is titled 'Blood Sap', which, upon activation, causes the player to grip the dagger with both hands and slash downwards from their right shoulder to their left waist, dealing damage to foes and restoring a portion of health which can be increased depending on the player's damage bonuses. Unlike with standard melee attacks, the player is not forced forward when using Blood Sap and can move freely while attacking. The special ability's cooldown lasts for 16 seconds before it can be used again.
The most important quirk of Blood Sap, subtly implied by the weapon's description, is how all three of the damage bonuses change its effectiveness. The special attack is most effective when the player only has Melee damage bonuses and none for Ranged or Magic. Having a large amount of each damage bonus severely limits the weapon's ability to perform well in combat.
