Talk:Magic Staves

Staves always have the following traits:

• all staves can be used as a normal melee weapon (a quarterstaff), OR they can be used to make melee touch attacks.

• If you use touch attacks, you don't get to add your STR modifier to the damage.

• all staves can be enhanced and be given magic properties, up to +4 pre-epic, and +7 post-epic
• most staves give the wielder access to one to three spells you can cast from the staff
• all staves have 10 charges that automatically come back after a full night's rest.

• most of the staff's cool stuff is powered by these charges, including the spells.

• Staff of Power
• Staff of One Hundred Hands
• Staff of Summoning
• Fortification Staff (wall spells)
• Upheaval Staff (pillar spells)
• Staff of the Burning Man
