13/2 weapon sounds quite OP [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

In all seriousness, yes, pre-epic most people go for the highest damage dagger in their main hand for the backstab bonus. But a 12/20 weapon (such as the exquisite velium spear) will outperform a 13/26 weapon since you are significantly decreasing the delay without losing much weapon damage. The overall DPS (due to damage bonus on every swing) will be considerably higher, so the bit of damage you're losing on backstabs won't really matter. You're obviously going to pay a premium for this type of weapon.

For most people, something like a Frozen Shard/Small Dragonbone Shard or Serpent's Tooth is more realistic as these weapons are affordable and readily available.
