i recall as i was playing SotN, i liked to use the dagger sub-weapon, especially for Alucard.
when fighting Slogra and Gaibon for the 1st time, i found the dagger to be most efficient as it was the fastest weapon at such an early game.
the dagger has no recovery speed or minimum animation issues (ok there's projectile limit issues and rebound type armor issues but thats another point i guess)
i would run up to them and rapid fire the dagger subweapon and 1 of them would be downed very quickly.
i guess the 1 or 2 frames stun lock helped with keeping them "rooted" so i can continue firing my dagger.
was wondering if BS should have it for lulz or whatever.
(ok there's Vorpal Blade, but the dagger subweapon made me think of this whole topic)

I agree... a rapid-fire weapon would be awesome... but I think it should be earned. like it should be a soul shard and it should be leveled up with more souls. it could be a collection of items that make it work. Like what if you had a belt and that belt's flavor text (the description of the item) says that it has a can hold a lot of daggers... then an armor piece has a similar flavor text, then the accessories can also talk about daggers... then when you equip all of them together they give you the 1000 dagger technique.... or something like that.
also, it does not need to be a dagger... it can also be throwing cards, throwing needles... or even elemental... think of 1000 flaming shots or water, ice, lightning, holy or darkness... anyway... I think this will be a nice homage to the original Castlevania SotN move.
Oh and I don't think it should BS for bloodstained... "BS" has too much of a negative tone to it... what about RotN.

Some Igavania games mirrored dagger in their own systems. Symphony of the Night had it, as you mentioned. Harmony of Dissonance had it too (Wind Book + Dagger throws a stream of daggers). Aria of Sorrow had (Evil Butcher's soul) Dawn of sorrow had it too (Ripper's soul), Order of Ecclesia had Culter Glyph.
I don't see why that wouldn't be mirroed in Bloodstained too. I believe it fits as a Trigger Shard. We already have "weapon throwing Shard" such as Spear Throw from E3 2017 Demo.
A knife-throwing enemy that is an expy of Fleaman or something (if Apes aren't that already) would be great to get that.

There are plenty of shards in the game, we do not know if any other characters might have some kind of subweapons either. It would make sense to have a super fast, but light weapon to spam if we want.
And yeah B:RotN are a name we will use when talking about this IP once the prequel are out just to separate those two, also, when the next installment is out which have pretty much already been confirmed by IGA.

A knife-throwing enemy that is an expy of Fleaman or something (if Apes aren't that already) would be great to get that. i wish to clarify that the very feature i was desiring was the 0 cooldown of SotN-Alucard-Dagger. " Harmony of Dissonance had it too (Wind Book + Dagger throws a stream of daggers)" this one is item crash, which is a separate thing. (still good to have~) "Aria of Sorrow had (Evil Butcher's soul) Dawn of sorrow had it too (Ripper's soul), Order of Ecclesia had Culter Glyph." these have cooldowns... |

i do like that the dagger has speed to make up for its short range, but also for its ability to be held as a guard when im trying to get drops from medusa heads and respawning enemies
