Piece Of Crap
[Fire Strike 1]
[Increase Projectile Size 1]
[Ricochet 1]
Before I made any choices, I had to test the weapon out. This one felt much different than the other two, but I knew how to use it like it was something I had always known.
I reach forward with the staff, expecting a ball of fire, a crackling lightning bolt, or something. The effect was much less dramatic, and only a tiny purple streak of light shot out.
The worst part was that it didn't even make it to the wall fifteen feet from me! I also had to stop completely to cast, albeit a one-second cast time.
This was a piece of crap, but I decided to increase the projectile size. After doing that, the bolt of light went from one finger wide to about the size of my wrist.
