Superior (Rev. 17)

Notes
Unlike other staves with a higher shot count than a tiered variant, Superior has no decrease in fire-rate. The primary drawback comes from its limited range (6.22 tiles, with a true range of about 5 tiles) with swerving shots that make it hard to aim.

Superior in use

However, in terms of DPS, this staff completely outclasses a T12 staff by up to 52%, and is only overtaken by a T13/T14 at 65/50 defense respectively. The Tideturner Trident starts outperforming Superior at 59 defense, while the Staff of Unholy Sacrifice will always outdamage this staff; however, its reliance on being point-blank with enemies makes Superior stay true to its name.

Players can also swap back and forth with a staff firing an odd number of shots to change the shot pattern so that it converges at the maximum range instead, making this weapon ever more powerful in the right hands.
