Charged Staff is a spell skill requiring a quarterstaff. It imbues your quarterstaff with additional flat lightning damage (scaling linear with the power charges it consumed) for a limited time. Additionally, while your staff is affected by the buff any attack skill used with the quarterstaff will cause a projectile to be shot.

Skill functions and interactions

  • The consumed power charges do not alter the shockwaves sent out directly, but the added damage from the buff does affect the shockwaves
  • Projectiles will also be fired if no enemy is hit my the attack
  • Projectiles from this skill always pierce
  • Reactivating the skill while the buff is still active will consume all your power charges to extend the buff by 6s per power charge and increases the power charge counter of the buff (which increases the flat added damage). This does not allow you to bypass the max up to your maximum power charges restriction
