Claw

Quarterstaff is an item class of one-handed martial melee weapons that require dexterity and intelligence to equip.

Mechanics

Unarmed skills can be used while wielding a quarterstaff. Unarmed skills will not benefit from the local attack stats or modifiers on the quarterstaff, and will use the character's base unarmed stats (as if a quarterstaff was not equipped).
