Gem staves

Gem staves are magic weapons that fire a brightly glowing projectile traveling at medium speed. There are currently 7 types corresponding to the 7 different gems. Higher-tier gem staves are capable of piercing one enemy. All gem staves, excepting the Amber Staff, are crafted from gems and bars at the Iron or Lead Anvil.

Tips

 * Gem staves can be divided into tiers based on their strength and behavior:
 * 1st tier lacks both autofire or piercing: Amethyst,  Topaz,  Sapphire
 * 2nd tier has autofire and piercing: Emerald
 * 3rd tier has high damage and fast speed: Amber,  Ruby,  Diamond
 * Their bright glow, reasonable mana cost, and auto-fire from the higher tiers make gem staves handy cave exploration tools.
 * A gem staff can be considered the magical equivalent of the Musket, being the first weapon of their class a player will often obtain and quite strong for when they can be obtained. Note that in the, the Wand of Sparking can be obtained prior to a gem staff.
