Staff Information
Game Description:	The staff was specially crafted for warfare, and is designed to help the wielder survive just a little bit longer.
Passive:	Physical Resistance Aura & Double wielder's maximum hit points
Active:	Arcane Bolt
Location:	Chapter 4: Disciples Chapter 5: Disciples Chapter 6: The Disciples you encounter in the Mind Duel with Grimnir.

The Staff of War is one of the more commonly encountered staves and a good overall weapon for those who expect to find themselves in close combat.

Abilities[ | ]

Physical resistance aura reduces physical damage by 75%, and it's the most common type dealt by most melee attackers, some shooters and several spells like pure earth projectiles.
It doubles the wielder's hit points (from 1000 to 2000 for most robes).
Active ability: Shoots an arcane bolt.
Best Use: Survival

Pros[ | ]

With this a wizard can withstand 8 times more physical damage and 2 times more of any other type.
Commonly Found/Dropped.
Prevents one-hit kills by dwarf priests' earth spells, War Troll's hammer bash, and other usually frustrating adversaries.

Cons[ | ]

The active ability is nearly useless - arcane bolts are a spam spell so a single cast does little damage.
