Notes
A powerful and reliable choice for a dagger, being more consistent than the shorter-range Spirit Dagger, Dirk of Cronus, and Etherite Dagger.

While it may be outclassed in sheer damage-per-second by other powerful daggers - such as the Corruption Cutter, the greater (effective) range compared to aforementioned choices may be preferred in situations where getting up close may be difficult.

History
Before Patch X.32.7.0 (Feb 2020), this item dealt 95-180 damage. The item was laughably weak at the time, being a ultra-rare drop from the final boss of the game, yet completely outclassed by the Dirk of Cronus, Legacy Etherite Dagger, and Symbiotic Ripper.

Before Exalt Version 1.1.0.0 (Sep 2020), this item dealt 110-190 damage.

Before Exalt Version 2.0.0.0 (Aug 2021), this item was soulbound.

Before Exalt Version 2.3.0.0 (Mar 2022), this item had a 6% XP bonus.

The Realm Eye says:
The Dagger of Sinister Deeds? I believe I know a few things about this…
They are spined daggers that have been forged not on Earth, but by captive souls in the underworld. My vision cannot reach such a realm, so I cannot say how it is made.
I do know that its moonsteel blade was made by great heroes in their afterlife. Corrupting such a sacred metal is considered a grave, unforgivable blasphemy.
