Mastering staff skill

Skill 'mastering staff', a clan skill of the Shalafi Order.

• This is a passive skill, it works automatically.

The Shalafi Order teaches its members to fight with a staff. Blows struck with a staff sometimes land harder, which serves the order's warriors as well as its mages.

If the staff holds a spell, now and then a blow wakes it, and the staff casts its offensive spell at the foe by itself. Such a cast spends no charge, but an empty staff stays silent. Instant-kill spells and the heaviest curses never fire this way. A mage of the order can put the spell into the staff with imbue.
