the staff of darkoth.

Post by Geoguswrek »

The BoC item the staff of darkoth is an arcane item that "counts as a bray-staff in combat". gw have confirmed it has magical attacks. so if i take the staff of darkoth and another magic weapon, what happens in combat? can i even do this?

If you have a magical weapon you must use that so cant use the staff then, but you can have both as they are from different categories.

you have to use the magic weapon, as staff is arcane item with secondary use, while magic weapon takes precedence.

Look at it like this George...

1) Why would you take a magic weapon with him anyway???
2) If you lose his magic weapon, you still have another one!! yayyy

How's life with you btw?
