The '''eltex staff''' is a [[Weapons#Melee Weapons|melee weapon]] added by the [[Royalty DLC]] that improves [[psychic sensitivity]] and makes [[psycast]]ers more effective.
+
</onlyinclude>
 +
The '''Eltex Staff''' is a DLC [[Weapons#Melee Weapons|melee weapon]] that benefits those using it who can use [[Psycasts]] by enabling them to use their powers more frequently.
  
It is one of a set of [[eltex|eltex items]] with similar effects.
+
==Acquisition==
 +
Eltex Staffs can be purchased from any combat supplier or war merchant or obtained as a quest reward, once you have the Royalty DLC active. You cannot craft this item.
  
== Acquisition ==
+
==Analysis==
Eltex staffs cannot be crafted. Instead can be purchased from any combat supplier or war merchant or obtained as a quest reward.
 
Additionally, [[Empire#Bestower|Imperial Bestowers]] always spawn with an eltex staff.
 
  
== Summary ==
+
A normal eltex staff improves a pawns [[Psychic Sensitivity]] by 50%, and improves the [[Psycasts#Mechanics|Psychic entropy recovery rate]] by 2.5 per 30 seconds. This effect scales with quality making for a powerful buff to a psycaster's abilities especially at higher qualities. However its potential as a weapon is limited with the second lowest DPS of any melee weapon, just barely better than [[Beer]]. The eltex staff cannot be equipped by a pawn incapable of violence.
Eltex staves improve the wielder's [[Psycasts#Neural Heat Recover Rate|neural heat recovery rate]] by +0.083 heat/second, and increases [[Psychic Sensitivity]] by an additive amount dependent on [[quality]]. The increase in Psychic Sensitivity also increases the neural heat limit. The increases are shown in the table below:
 
  
{{Psychic Sensitivity Quality Table|0.50|0.083}}
+
As the Eltex staff makes a rather poor melee weapon, and with a full psycaster set ([[Eltex robe]], [[Eltex shirt]], [[Eltex vest]], [[Eltex helmet]]) your pawn will have little armour, it's a good idea to keep them in the back as a "support" pawn.
  
Note that eltex staves are unable to be wielded by pawns incapable of violence.
+
An Eltex robe improves a pawns [[Psycasts#Mechanics|Neural heat recovery rate]] by 2.5 per 30 seconds, and their [[Psychic Sensitivity]] an amount dependent on the quality.

== Analysis ==
+
</div> <br style="clear:both" />
Eltex staves are clearly meant for psycast focused characters, allowing for more casts. Despite its description claiming that "it is a solid melee weapon", the actual attack is weaker than a piece of [[wood]].
 
  
With a full psycaster set ([[eltex robe]], [[eltex shirt]], [[eltex vest]], [[eltex skullcap]]), your pawn will have little armor. It's a good idea to keep them in the back as a "support" pawn. You can also wear a [[shield belt]] without impacting psycasts.
+
== Trivia ==
 
+
[[Empire|Bestowers]] always spawn with an eltex staff.
