Notes
Added in Exalt Version 1.2.0.0

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.
