Armadyl battlestaff

Not to be confused with the Staff of Armadyl.

The Armadyl battlestaff can be made by adding an Orb of armadyl onto a battlestaff, requiring 77 crafting. This gives 150 crafting experience.

Note: This staff is not required for casting Storm of Armadyl.

Its properties include:


 * Requires the completion of Ritual of the Mahjarrat, 77 Magic and 40 Attack to use.
 * Enhances the effect of the Storm of Armadyl spell: the casting speed will be increased from speed 5 (3 s. interval) to speed 6 (2.4 s. interval)


 * Gives a 15% magic damage boost


 * Acts as an Air staff, providing unlimited amount of Air runes

Comparing with other staffs
Its magic damage boost is the second highest in Gielinor, tied with the Staff of Light and only surpassed by the Chaotic staff. However, the Armadyl battlestaff is arguably harder to obtain than either of those. Staff of Light costs a lot less, chaotic staff is free in terms of coins but requires recharging. It should be noted that it has a low magic attack and defence bonuses, on a par with basic Elemental staves. It also lacks a special attack, unlike the Staff of Light.
