Zuriel's staff

Zuriel's staff is a two-handed degradable weapon obtained by killing Revenants and the Chaos Elemental.

The normal version requires level 78 Magic, and lasts for 1 hour of combat. After the time is up, the staff will vanish. It is currently unknown if this is negated by the use of abilities.


 * As an hour contains 6000 ticks and a magical spell is able to be casted once per 6 ticks with a staff, you are able to cast 1000 combat spells with this staff before it degrades. Thus, each spell costs approximately an extra coins when using this staff, in addition to the runes that have to be used.

Contrary to popular belief, this item does not degrade while using non-combat magic.

Special Attack
The Zuriel's staff has a special attack called Miasmic Barrage. It consumes 100% adrenaline for each use. A magic attack is launched at the opponent, dealing up to 200% weapon damage and reduces their attack speed temporarily. It also afflicts the target with Confuse. This makes the special attack somewhat useful for high-levelled bossing to reduce the amount of attacks taken.

The damage dealt by this special attack will be increased while under the effects of Sunshine and Metamorphosis ultimate abilities, although due to the low damage output for an ultimate ability and the fact it requires 100% adrenaline to use, it isn't efficient to use the aforementioned ultimate abilities to increase this special attack's damage.

Trivia

 * Prior to the EoC, this was the only staff which could unlock the miasmic spells, however these spells no longer exist in the game. Later on, the staff was given a special attack which is called Miasmic Barrage and has the identical animation to the spell that used to exist in-game, as well as very similar effects.
 * Due to the aforementioned update, Jagex fixed the staff, allowing it to have a critical attack bonus to replace the lost spells, as the staff's only use was for the spells.
 * At the time, Miasmic spells could be cast on NPC's, however it did not slow down their attack speed.
 * Although there was an updated version of the staff in the teaser pictures for the updated Zuriel's armour, the staff wasn't updated along with the armour.
 * A silhouette of the updated Zuriel staff could be seen on the bonfire banner on the RuneScape homepage. The specific reason for this is unknown, but it may be a spoiler of the Zuriel staff being updated in the near future.
