A spellstriker staff is wrought iron with gleaming arcane sigils etched into its surface and a sharp point at the bottom. Used as a weapon, the staff is a +2 greater striking shifting staff.

Activate F (concentrate)

Frequency once per hour

Trigger You use Spellstrike with a non-cantrip spell and miss with the Strike

Effect An explosion of magical energy—stored up for the Spellstrike—explodes out. All creatures in a 5-foot emanation take 1d6 damage per rank of the spell, with a reflex save against your spell DC. This damage is the same type the spell would have dealt, and the activation gains that trait; if the spell would have dealt multiple types of damage, choose one of them. If the damage of the explosion is mental, the save is will instead of Reflex.

Activate Cast a Spell

Effect You expend a number of charges from the staff to cast a spell from its list.

Craft Requirements You have the magus's Spellstrike activity. Supply one casting of all listed ranks of all listed spells.

Traits

Common

Anything that doesn't list another rarity trait (uncommon, rare, or unique) automatically has the common trait. This rarity indicates that an ability, item, or spell is available to all players who meet the prerequisites for it. A creature of this rarity is generally known and can be summoned with the appropriate summon spell.

Magical

Something with the magical trait is imbued with magical energies not tied to a specific tradition of magic. Some items or effects are closely tied to a particular tradition of magic. In these cases, the item has the arcane, divine, occult, or primal trait instead of the magical trait. Any of these traits indicate that the item is magical.

Staff

This magic item holds spells of a particular theme and allows a spellcaster to cast additional spells by preparing the staff.

TwoHand

This weapon can be wielded with two hands. Doing so changes its weapon damage die to the indicated value. This change applies to all the weapon's damage dice, such as those from striking runes.
