Eldermere's Staff

Eldermere's Staff

"A staff of my own design. The dome that encapsulates the tip can contain highly concentrated bolts of energy before releasing them into the spell of my choosing. The quilted leather along the hilt adds a refined touch, I believe." - Eldermere, Chief Engineer Spellcasting: Equip a Staff and Spell Charges, then use Mana to cast.

Eldermere's Staff is a frost staff for a Mage who casts ice spells. Its upgrades raise all magic ice damage and add ice damage twice more. It also adds mana leech, which refills mana as spells land, and crit chance. Like every staff, it casts the spell held in its spell charges and spends mana on each cast. Quick Charge halves the time a staff needs to charge a spell. Terror stuns a target on a spell crit, which suits the staff's crit chance. Eldermere, the Chief Engineer of the Ancients, designed the staff himself. A dome at its tip stores bolts of energy before they become a spell. Eldermere's Staff comes out of Ancient crates, barrels and vases at random, mostly in the Cinder's Cradle. It can also be caught while Fishing with Epic Fishing Bait II.

Damage By Level

Base damage grows with item level and with rarity. The table shows the base damage before perks and gems. Each perk adds its own bonus on top.

Level	Common	Uncommon	Rare	Epic	Legendary
1	10	11	12	16	18
10	23	26	29	38	41
20	38	42	48	62	68
30	54	59	67	86	94
40	68	75	86	110	121
50	84	92	104	134	147

Enhancements by Level

Each upgrade at the Alchemist raises a copy by one level and unlocks the next enhancement. The levels count from the copy's own level, so a level 9 copy unlocks them at levels 10 to 14. This weapon takes up to five upgrades. Every upgrade of one copy costs the same number of Runes. On a legendary copy, the fourth and fifth upgrades also take Legendary Runes. The costs are for a level 50 copy. Other copies cost more or less by level, as the second table shows.

Upgrade	Unlocks At	Enhancement	Effect	Runes	Legendary Runes	NPC
1	Level +1	Ice Damage	Adds Ice Damage equal to 10% of base damage	850	-	Alchemist
2	Level +2	Mana Leech	+3% Mana Leech	850	-	Alchemist
3	Level +3	Ice Damage	Adds Ice Damage equal to 10% of base damage	850	-	Alchemist
4	Level +4	Critical Strike Chance	+7% Critical Strike Chance	850	106	Alchemist
5	Level +5	All Magic Ice Damage	+10% All Magic Ice Damage	850	106	Alchemist
Total	-	-	-	4,250	212	Alchemist

The rune cost depends only on the copy's level. This table shows the price of one upgrade and of every upgrade the copy can take, level by level.

Level	Upgrades	Runes per Upgrade	Total Runes	Total Legendary Runes
1	5	46	230	12
10	5	130	650	32
20	5	256	1,280	64
30	5	418	2,090	104
