Since rogue has a new talent Close Quarters Combat I believe some items that give + weapon skill to daggers or fists should do it to both weapon types. For example, Ashskin Belt gives +5 to fists, that's super nice, but if I wield a dagger in the offhand I still lose some damage. The same for the Circlet of Restless Dreams and for some other items.

Weird how itemizing wrong doesnt reward you^^

You can get ashskin and corehound gloved if you want to bolster both weaponskills.

Why should you get both weaponskills just for equiping already good items. The only item that does this are edgemasters, and these provide nothing else.

I'm losing way too much of other stats with both ashskin and corehound gloves.

It's just about the viability of fist + dagger equip. As I feel that one of the ideas of that Close Quarters Combat talent is to make it viable.

Any buffs to off-meta gearing options are welcome.

There is another solution.

Just add fast fist weapon to complement Claw of the Black Drake with the same dmg range. So I don't have to use dagger in the offhand. And a slow fist weapon for the Claw of the Frost Wyrm in late Nax.

I'm all for more support to under-represented weapon types in any form. Gear variety ends up feeling a little lacking at times.
