A high-level assassin dual-wielding phase daggers will slice through
anything which doesn't notice him first in one turn, even the nastiest
endgame stuff the game can throw at you. Backstabbing bonuses +
ignoring PV, twice in a single action? There's not much that can
survive that, and the few things that can will most likely be stunned
anyway, allowing for another double-backstab which will - and this
I say from experience - which will dispose of even the mightiest
foe in the game, apart from *the* EnDgAmEbOsS himself, which, I
believe, can't be (and shouldn't be) backstabbed anyway.
