Yellow magic bolts and early caster capabilities
Forged at an Iron Anvil or Lead Anvil with 7 Tin Bars and 8 Topaz gems, the Topaz Staff provides early magical offense. It casts a glowing yellow bolt that pierces 1 enemy, spending 7 mana per attack. The projectile travels through the air at 36 use time, dealing 16 base magic damage with 3.5 knockback. Each fired bolt emits a warm glow, providing handy illumination when firing down unexplored cave shafts.
Gem staff progression tier and casting upgrades
Positioned one step above the Amethyst Staff, this weapon offers improved damage and bolt speed for budding spellcasters. It functions as the tin counterpart in early gem weapon crafting, usable without needing an early dungeon expedition or smashing corruption orbs. Its piercing capability allows a single projectile to strike up to two aligned enemies along its flight path. As exploration deepens, it is superseded by the Sapphire Staff or Emerald Staff. Mythical is the optimal modifier.
Trivia
- The Topaz Staff bolt can strike up to two enemies before dissipating.
- Its projectile illuminates dark cave passages as it travels through the air.
