Staves

Attack speed

Primary type							Crush
Secondary type							Magic

Staves are Magic weapons that have the ability to autocast spells. Elemental staves are unlimited sources of certain runes depending on the element of the staff, and are popular because they save coins otherwise spent on runes.

All staves give Magic attack bonuses as well as mediocre melee attack bonuses. Battlestaves are upgraded versions of normal staves with slightly better melee bonuses. Mystic staves are enchanted battlestaves that have equal Magic attack bonuses with battlestaves and even better melee attack bonuses.

Basic staves have no requirements to wield. Others may have specific requirements, like the completion of quests or certain skill requirements.

Some staves are required to cast certain spells. Examples of this are the slayer staff, which casts the Magic Dart spell, and Iban's staff, which is required to cast the Iban Blast spell.

All staves have a melee attack speed of 5, with the staff of the dead (and its upgraded counterpart) being exceptions with a speed of 4.
