Can a stave be used as a weapon?


Rules Questions


I would like my Oracle to use a Stave of Healing as a melee weapon. Is this possible? If so, can it be further enchanted with other modifiers?


A Staff of Power is also a +2 quarterstaff, which seems to pretty clearly indicate that a magical staff can also be made in such a way as to be usable as a weapon. I'm not up to reverse-calculating the price right now, but it would probably be reasonable just to treat the staff properties and the weapon properties as separate enchantments each priced individually.

Remember that a staff is a double weapon, and each end must be enchanted individually.


I'm not sure about the first question, but if you're adding additional enhancements/abilities to a magic item I think you can follow the rules listed here:
