you're not, but for some reason the devs are stubborn about releasing new staff weapons. We have at least four models unique to NPCs.
The Tsoo "Naginata", Dream Doctor's Lamplighter, most recently the Black Knights' "double mace", and the Animus Arcana/Shadow Hunter's "Barbed Spear".
All in all, it's becoming increasingly annoying that staff launched with very few customizations to begin with and NPCs are continually given new models.

So... the plain wood, plain metal and wrapped staffs can't be used by characters with a magical origin?
(Don't get me wrong, more options are usually good... but your premise seems an odd one to me.)

I guess after they made the broom and the pool cue, they just didn't have enough time for silly things like wizard staffs or spears.
Larry: Owen, what the hell did you do to my wife?
Owen: Well I don't want to say on the phone - all I can tell you is that I killed her last night.
I don't disagree with adding more customization options to Staph Fighting (still waiting for that Weapon Pack), but I think this is best put in the new All Things Art thread.

Hey, a friend of mine has a really friggin' awesome Wicked Witch-themed staff user that uses the broom. That's totally magic-themed. |

What I´d really like to see is the Snake Staff the CoT is using as a wand.
btw, has there been any info on Staff Blast yet?

Ever think they might have an expansion pack planned to be released on the market at some future date like they already did with Titan Weapons?

They could be but I find them really plain and more suited to a natural origin type not someone who uses magic to protect himself and use combat techniques he normally wouldn't be capable of.

I'm hoping they add elemental Staves like they did for TW/BS/Katana. Being able to swing around an ice or fire staff would be neat.
