== General ==
== Overview ==
* The [[Bandit Hilt]] can be attached to loot generated Daggers (<i>[[Dagger]], [[Knife]], [[Jambiya]] or [[Khanjar]], see [[Loot#Daggers|Max Stats]]</i>), and light [[Sword]]s (<i>[[Rapier]], [[Short Sword]], [[Yaoji]], [[Simi]], or [[Spada]] see [[Loot#Swords|Max Stats]]</i>).
* You can remove a Hilt by attaching another [[Bandit Hilt]] to the weapon (although the hilt is destroyed in the process).

== Notes ==
 
* For double-strike, your base skill needs to be 250+. For daggers, if your base skill is 325+, you will have triple-strike ability. Swords cannot do triple-strike.
* To multi-strike with a weapon, set your power near maximum when fighting.
* Bandit weapons are [[Attuned]] and [[Bonded]] once the hilt has been attached.
* All non-elemental Bandit Weapons do piercing damage when used with a shield. Without the shield all non-elemental Bandit Weapons do slashing damage except the [[Rapier]] sword which always does piercing damage.
* Elemental Bandit Weapons always do elemental damage with or without shields.
* Hilted weapons with a wield requirement of 370+ may now be tinkered either before or after hilting. Note that failing a tinker or imbue on a hilted dagger still destroys it and the hilt as well, so imbuing and tinkering before hilting is recommended.  PLEASE NOTE:  A weapon with a wield requirement of less than 370 cannot be hilted if it has already been tinkered!
* You can readily identify a high-level weapon that can be hilted because it will be [[Ivoryable]].
