Throwing Dagger is a Consumable Item in Elden Ring. Most Consumables grant various effects such as restorative properties for recovering HP, removing certain negative status effects or applying temporary buffs and debuffs, while others can be thrown at enemies to deal damage.
Short dagger for throwing. It has no handguard.
The blade is polished, and its weight is expertly balanced.
Throw at enemies to deal damage.
This auxiliary weapon, used primarily to constrain an enemy's movements, can still be deadly in the right hands.

AnonymousLow effort toss when you are free to act from a distance, without risking yourself and does quick, respectable damage. Daggers have always been one of the handiest tools in every souls game. It's a r1 from afar for a free hit. Toss one to finish off a boss/player or to suppress the enemy in order to give yourself a break from combat. Fan dagger is an uograde but this will always remain consistently useful when you need it.

Honestly shocked and amazed with how many Invasion Youtubers/Streamers don't use these when they get at least once per video a target that survives with sub 100 hp which could easily be dispatched with a throwing dagger at 0 risk.
I haven't PvP'd much thanks to how badly the ball was dropped with PvP on PC, but I have finished off far too many bosses with a throwing dagger than I almost dare to admit.
But seriously, one of the best and underrated item-weapons in ER.
I have it 1st on my toolbelt with my Flasks on the D-pad.
I can chuck a knife to stun for a second and give myself time to drink without interruption.
Fighting multiple opponents and one goes below 200 hp I can finish them off with one or two chucks without committing to unnecessary risk.
Using big heavy weapons I can chuck a dagger to mix up my attacks and apply more pressure.
Can bait a roll catch out of NPC invaders by tricking them into dodging with a lil knifey.
Gonna try getting into pvp because I wanna try just how much pressure they apply to real players.

Do anyone have problems hitting with those ? I often can't hit dudes staying still while locked down. Sucks

In pvp they are good at punshing slow magic users because many spells are forcing the user to stand still for a moment

Wish you could throw these while jumping. Using them out of a run or a jump would be quite nice.

amazing in pvp at lower-mid levels (at least in duels).
it’s basically a “be more aggressive” button or an answer to a long cast you dont want to get near. also to finish off folks. real ****

Stops enemies from recovering their posture (doesn't build it up a lot, but it depletes way less when you can't attack). Throw them out from time to time against tanky enemies and bosses and enjoy a lot more posture breaks.

you will win WAAAAY more boss fights and pvp fights when you use throwing daggers/darts/etc. to last hit when they have a sliver of HP.
Wish this had some Arcane scaling. Cinders has spoiled me it seems.

Are you usually frustrated because the boss needs literally 1 more hit then you get smacked and die instead?? This is the answer to your problem

How do you equip throwing knives. I can only throw them from the menu.

“This auxiliary weapon used primarily to constrain an enemy's movements“ proper use of these seem pretty toxic

Does anyone know if dex affects the throwing speed or animation?

i have these and kukris on my shortcut items so you can throw them whenever you want, they are very useful and you can buy unlimited. daggers stop enemy charges on many enemies, allowing you to take back momentum. -rikomi

Sell value is 10 not 50. Imagine buying these for 40 and selling for 50 for infinite runes

You can carry 40 throwing daggers and throw them at extreme speed, if you got time for throwing.

does dexterity affect the damage of the throwing dagger? I have been toying with the idea of a Ninja build using daggers and throwing knives.

Is the damage of throwing dagger gonna works with Spear Talisman or Millicent’s Prosthesis? Given the circumstances fits the criteria of activation (counter-attacking, spam-throwing etc.)
