Overview[]
The Staff is a Guardian class weapon, requiring Staff Training. It's primarily a melee weapon that features high damage, a secondary ranged attack and a variety of damage types. The secondary attack has a short range and a slow rate of fire but requires no ammunition. Fully trained, the Staff grants the ability to deflect incoming fire.
Usage[]
Staves can be equipped by dragging them from your inventory to the weapon tray.
The optimal range for the ranged attack of the Staff is 20 meters - beyond this range the damage dealt will decrease.
Notes[]
While the Staff does have a ranged attack, it does considerably more damage in melee. The player should constantly be seeking to engage enemies at close range, using Rushing Blow to close the distance between foes.
