Dont let naysayers detract you from this weapon. This is a high skillcap weapon. When achieved, this weapon trumps every weapon in the game. literally every single weapon. No weapon has this weapons utility (guaranteed stuns on regular attacks, knockbacks on charged attacks,armor ignore) and damage. yes DAMAGE. dont let the wiki fool you. the slide attack is the crux of this weapons damage output.When you get it down, you can do a double slide attack every 1.5 seconds. maybe faster. thats 150 damage over 1.5 seconds. Lets compare it to the scindo. 200 damage over 2 seconds. thats a 1.1 ratio on damage. the thing is, slide attacks happen a lot more often than charge attacks once you get good at them. and you can also shoot while sliding, you cant shoot while charging. you also arent weighed down because the bo staff isnt a heavy weapon. So youre mobile, do more damage, and have an equal, if not more amount of utility than one of the better weapons in the game... just trying to shed a different light on what seems to be constant bo staff hate.
