The Amethyst Staff being used to attack a Target Dummy.

The Amethyst Staff is the weakest of the gem staves. It shoots a single bolt.

Its best modifier is Mythical.

Its best modifier is Godly or Demonic. Both modifiers increase the average damage output by the same amount. It cannot get the Mythical or Masterful modifiers due to its low mana cost.

Notes

Tips

  • It has slow speed and low knockback, but even with the low starting base mana of 20, the staff can fire 4 consecutive shots.
  • Due to its somewhat slow projectile speed, this weapon suffers when facing moving aerial targets, such as the Demon Eye.
