Who ever posted with subject " worthless " ( cant remember name ) is true about this item not being good ... but ...
Ya also said that once a pure caster gets a stein of moggok they never use a 2h blunt again . WRONG ! ! ! there are a few very very very nice 2 h blunt staves for pure casters. My 47 chanter uses a Chetari Wardstaff ( 14 int, 8 cha, some good resists, a little mana and hp, etc ). It is better then my old combo of stein and rod of glamour so :P
