Hi all,
I'm in doubt about the Spellstaff druidic spell.
The Core rulebook say:
You store one spell that you can normally cast in a wooden quarterstaff. Only one such spell can be stored in a staff at a given time, and you cannot have more than one spellstaff at any given time. You can cast a spell stored within a staff just as though it were among those you had prepared, but it does not count against your normal allotment for a given day. You use up any applicable material components required to cast the spell when you store it in the spellstaff.
Am I right saying that to store a spell in the staff is needed to cast in succession, BOTH Spellstaff and the spell to be stored?
Or is Spellstaff casting ALONE sufficent to store aspell inside the wood?
Moreover: the spell to be stored could be of every spell level the caster is allowed to use (so a 6th level spell could allow to duplicate a 9th level spell)?

I always thought that storing a spell into a spell staff required casting a spell into spell it - if it created a new spell without expending prepared spell out of thin air it should say so.
About the second part: there is no limit stated on the highest level spell you can store within spellstaff so yes, it allows you to store any one spell for later. Having this spell virtually grants you one bonus slot of any level tied to a quarterstaff as long as you have time to charge it and regain spells later.
