From the Inner Sea Gods book, for 5,050 gp it has one main purpose: At will - Magic Missile (3rd).
You know what this means? For 50,500gp, you can give 10 villagers each a staff, resulting in 20d4+20 per round. This can make things interesting.
Its like Stormtroopers that can't miss!
I'm playing a Conjurer Wizard in a Rise of the Runelords campaign who worships Nethys and when I saw this item, I immediately emailed my GM and said this is the next item that I'm making.
What's even better, it's not counted as a magical staff, but as a magic weapon. Meaning, it only needs craft magic arms & armor to craft, which is awesome since I'm only 6th level. Woot woot!!

Yeah, not sure how exactly they assumed the value of this item, since it is a +1 weapon, grants the Eschew Materials feat while held and can cast 2 magic missiles in a round... at will? No charges? I can't seem to find the rules for even doing that in the magic item construction :P
I think this one was a goof as all the other weapons in the section that have spells/spell like abilities, can use them 1/day.

Considering that a simple casting of a single first level spell, Shield, is all it would take to reduce the staff to a complete non-factor? I think the cost to game impact is pretty reasonable.
Super expensive? Awwww yeah
Utilizing item creation rules:
Assuming "Command word" activation (SL x CL x 1800) the item would cost 5400Gp before any other abilities.
If "Use-activated or continuous" (SL x CL x 2000) it would cost 6000Gp.
Seems the whole item may be a glitch...
Would a Quarterstaff of Entwined Serpents use the users CL and Feats?
Would a Quarterstaff of Entwined Serpents use the users CL and Feats?No. It's not a Staff. It's not even a spell trigger item, anyone can use it.
I figured : ( Just thought I'd check anyway. Thx!
