{{for|the item in EvilHack and Hack'EM|staff of war}}&lt;br /&gt;
A '''staff of battle''' is a type of [[weapon]] that appears in [[SporkHack]]. It is a [[two-handed]] [[spell staff]] that uses the [[quarterstaff]] [[skill]]. The staff of battle is made of [[wood]] and appears as a &amp;quot;staff&amp;quot; when [[Identification|unidentified]], an appearance that it shares with the quarterstaff and the other spell staves.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Generation==&lt;br /&gt;
Staves of battle make up {{frac|200}} (0.5%) of all weapons randomly generated on the ground, in general [[shop]]s or as [[death drop]]s. Used armor dealerships and antique weapons outlets can also stock staves of battle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Description==&lt;br /&gt;
The staff of battle deals 1d6 damage to both small and large [[monster]]s. A [[hero]] wielding a staff of battle gains a flat 50% reduction in the [[spellcasting]] failure rate of [[attack spells]], which is applied after all other checks besides the check for [[metallic]] [[body armor]].&lt;br /&gt;
