Quarterstaff

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

Unarmed

Although quarterstaves are considered two-handed weapons, unarmed skills can be used while quarterstaves are equipped. When using an unarmed skill, the user will always use a bare fist instead of the quarterstaff. Damage is calculated ignoring the local stats of the weapon as if the player did not have a quarterstaff equipped.
