Spirit Staff
The Spirit Staff is a Melee weapon introduced in the 17.2.0 update. It is obtained from the Oriental Season Battle Pass and the Dino lottery in the 21.3 update.
Description
It is a double sided staff which has the ability of super punch and burning. It does amazing damage when paired with the burning attribute, a decent attack speed and a high mobility of 85. It also has a good range and huge area damage.
Appearance
It appears to be a double-sided staff with what looks like lasers at both of its end. Its handle has white and gray accents and is partially wooden. The hilt also has some golden decals. It strongly resembles the Double-bladed lightsaber from Star Wars.
Performance
This weapon is usually used to rush in and the best way to kill people with it is to have a primary weapon such as Viking or Ultimatum so the player can shoot their enemy and finish them off with the Spirit Staff, which performs best at melee range. The burning effect gives the player a higher chance to kill their opponent with 1 tap. It is most likely to get a kill with the super punch because it does much more damage and it gives burning unlike the non super punch.
