Notes
This staff possesses the third highest damage per shot of any staff and the unique property of ignoring its target’s defense, at the cost of a massively reduced rate of fire. As such, it is most useful in situations where you would need to pack a lot of damage into single shots, or against enemies with very high DEF or the tendency to Armor themselves.

Note that this staff has a lengthened range of 9 - tied with the Staff of the Crystal Serpent - making it a fine choice if you need extended range to snipe a boss from the range of a Wand user. This staff also outdamages Staff of the Cosmic Whole at 38 defense, Staff of the Vital Unity at 43 defense and Staff of the Fundamental Core at 68 defense.

It used to have the following sprite:
