Hi!
Which wepons are you able to backstab with?

I know it works with daggers, short swords, long swords and quarterstaffs. Maybe katanas...not sure what else.

You can backstab with clubs, katanas, maces... I think the rule is any melee weapon a thief can normally use.

In essense, it's less of a back *stab* as it is a back *attack*.

Actually not all short swords and Maces are no... follow the link below to learn more

Also if you download Weimar's Item Upgrade Mod there is a dagger that improves your backstab multiplier by 1 (so potenially an assassin could do x8 the damage)
