    I been messing around with magic this release and just wondering why anyone would use a staff over wands. I am just curious if there is a build or play style that would make a staff superior over a wand.

    I really wish they would put a Staff skill line in the game.. could be nice for a magic user or a monk type class.

    I crafted a staff once back when Auto attack was automatic. I remember it having a longer reach than a wand, so that might be an advantage. In the end I stopped using it because it did hardly any damage and ate up focus. If staffs are more useful now I might give them another try.
