Fire Staff

Description
The Fire Staff is a two-handed ranged Elementalist weapon.

It inflicts fire damage, is tied to the Fire Magic attribute and provides an energy bonus.

There are three types of Fire Staves. One is a barbed wooden staff. The second type, introduced in the Thursday March 9th update bears a strong resemblence to the Fire Wand, with a twin filament head and a very dark red shaft. The third type, which is available in Cantha, has an orange hexagonal crystal surrounded by a metal cage.

The Fire Staff versus the Fire Wand
The Fire Wand is a one handed Elementalist weapon that inflicts fire damage on the Elementalist's foe. The primary differentials between the Fire Staff and the Fire Wand are 1) damage dealt: generally but not always, a Staff deals slightly more damage that the matching Wand; and 2) weapon combinations: players have the ability to use a Wand concurrently with a shield, ankh or similar offhand item as it is a one handed weapon, whereas the two handed Staff cannot be used with other such items. As such, the Wand shares more commonality with the Elementalist's Starter Rod.
