The dagger has the best critical output of any weapon (at +10) and it should be an elemental infusion because criticals ignore absortions and these get higher AR. Usually chaos/fire/crystal/lightning depending on your stats. Also I'm assuming you're using the hornet ring, in this case dont use dark/deep cuz its bugged.
