The only way to cap Enhancing Magic(500) while using the new Atrophy Gloves is through this dagger unless you have the absolute perfect Enhancing set, meaning Grip, Zenith+1(+8 Skill), Torque, both the Augmenting Earring and the ASA Earring, Relic+2 Body, Empyrean Back, Oly Sash, Atrophy Tights, and Empyrean +2 Feet, which with capped merits will put you at exactly 501 skill.
Can potentially save inventory space (Torque +7,earring +3, waist +5 or grip +3)for enhancing magic sets; 2 for 1 item. or skip things like augmented Zenith +1 headpiece. If anyone still cares for RDM lol.
