IMPERIAL SKILL: RED DIAMOND

RobbieRocket

Hi, this is listed as a skill effecting melee combat weapons. I realise that in real life a staff is a melee weapon but in ESOTU and other fantasies it is partially or not at all a melee weapon and is more of a magic missive weapon. Am I right in thinking that I have blown 2 skill points on Red Diamond (level 2) when all I use is a healing staff?

Expert knowledge preferred, I can do the speculation all by myself, thanks!

It only works with melee attacks and, strangely enough, Caltrops.

Since all staff attacks are ranged it doesn't proc off them, no.
