Staves

Staves are items that require Runes. Most Staves are weapons, but not all of them; some can be used to perform other tasks (such as healing the player or summoning allies). Each Staff consumes Runes on use; up to 4 different types of Runes may be required. Staves can also be used in the offhand without the need for the Brace enchantment.

Staves that can be used as weapons deal magic damage.

Enchanting[]

Staves can be given the following enchantments:

Bolded enchantments are ones added by Advent of Ascension. Any Staves can be enchanted at an Enchantment Table, Anvil, or Infusion Table.
