    I like the idea of it, but 2d6 for a dagger attack at the cost of a bonus action seems a bit op. Especially if it works on crits.

      Thanks for the feedback! I had considered it comparable to hitting with a greatsword, while also consuming your bonus action (and adding Str/Dex mod twice instead of once). But I’ll take that into consideration!

    Seems cool to me, and not too strong. The dual wielder feat for ex. gives 2d8 instead of 2d6 for the same cost, and gives +1 AC. If you add your str/dex to the damage this feat would probably be better.

    As it is, I like it. Makes daggers more flavorful and adds an incentive to use them instead of going for the more optimal (boring) option.

      Yeah, the intention was to apply Str/Dex to the damage of the bonus attack. And if you have shield proficiency, you could use that here too (as a DM, I might flavor a shield for such a character as a swordbreaker or trident dagger), so there’s potential for +2 AC (though only with shield proficiency).

      Thanks for the feedback!
