Description

The Astral Staff is a type of semi-universal staff, requiring the primary attribute of its respective caster profession, except for Mesmer where it is linked to Inspiration Magic. It has a straight shaft which tapers to a point, around which is a worm-like wrapping. The staff is animated, the animation being a highlight or glow in the wrapping that travels from the base to the head of the staff.

Location

Eye of the North Expansion

• Dungeon
  • Catacombs of Kathandrax
    • Chest of Kathandrax

Dye

Dye affects the whole staff. The shaft dyes very darkly to the color applied but the worm-like wrapping usually dyes to the opposite color to the one applied. It appears to be dyed yellow by default.

Notes

• Other items with this appearance:
  • Iceblood's Warstaff (unique)
  • The Rapture (unique)
• You must have your Shader quality on high in your Guild Wars graphical settings to see the animation.

Bug! The animation stops or becomes un-noticable when you're moving, attacking or casting etc. even if your shader quality is set to high.
