Notes
A unique weapon that was one of two introduced to showcase the new burst-fire function, which causes the weapon to fire a certain number of shots before needing to pause for a certain amount of time. The time between the bursts can be decreased (up to a cap) through anything that increases fire rate, such as DEX or the Berserk buff.

This staff has a high fire rate alongside powerful accelerating shots which allow it to do significant damage in a short time. This is compensated by a slightly lowered range, a very slow initial projectile speed which makes it somewhat difficult to use, and the need to wait between bursts.

It should be noted that the burst cooldown starts when the first shot in a burst is fired, not when the burst finishes.

History
Before Exalt Version 3.0.0.0 (Aug 2022), the S.T.A.F.F had a damage range of 130-220, but burst weapons did not actually work with the Berserk buff.
