| A staff encased in vividly coloured scales, wrought by a long-forgotten wizard. It was the mage Iskenderun's favourite playtoy. The staff increases the power of its wielder's conjurations.

Enhances the power of the wielder's Conjurations
Automatically creates a battlesphere when monsters are in sight; battlesphere's power depends on your skill with Conjurations
Desirability
Spellcasters who are already using a staff of conjuration will likely want to upgrade to the staff of Battle[1] if they find it. Other mages may also want to hold onto it if they aren't engaging in weapon combat, as having a battlesphere following you around will increase the damage output of your Conjurations for no extra cost.
However, the staff of Battle makes for a mediocre bludgeoning tool (unlike mundane staves of conjurations, it deals no additional damage in melee) and will only enhance your Conjurations. If you have found an enhancer staff for an elemental school of magic you specialize in, then that may be a better choice for you, especially if you don't have much skill in Conjurations.
Characters that do not plan to use Conjurations have no use for the staff of Battle.
History
- The staff of Battle was added in 0.24.
