Topaz Staff

The Topaz Staff is a phenomenal starting magic weapon given its low mana cost, high damage, and easy crafting recipe. It shoots a single, two enemy penetrating bolt, similar to the Water Bolt. It has slow speed and low knockback, but with your starting base mana of 20, this can be used to devastating effect during your first few nights, especially if you get a good Modifier.

Due to the minute mana cost, the Bat Scepter is unable to obtain modifiers which affect its mana cost, including (but not limited to) Masterful, Mythical, and Adept. Therefore, the best possible modifier is Godly.
