Magic Damage Destruction Staff

I thought there was a need to create new staff to deal magic damage. But I think there is no need. Zenimax can use the Destruction Staff!

After all, it's a Destruction Staff, not an "Elemental Staff".

The game needs a weapon that deals Magic Damage! Flame, Shock and Frost is not all damage based on Magicka.

So, nothing better than a new kind of Destruction Staff. Woodwork, Templar, Warden, Nightblade and War Maiden Set thank you!

Suggestion of a passive.:
  • Ancient Knowledge: Magic Staff increases your damage done with Magic Damage abilities by 3/6%.
    (a value greater than Twin Blade and Blunt/Dual Sword passive and less than Flame/Shock Staffs)

    100% agree, but even if they make a new wep, for me that would also be cool enough

    Too many variables to consider.

    Force shock would have to be changed to deal 4 types of damage.
    Clench, WoE, Impulse and Elemental Storm, all of these would need fourth effect when having "magic staff" equiped.
    Tri-focus passive would have to be renamed to quadra-focus with new effect with "magic staff" equiped.

    I think that this would be too much of a work. Easier and better option would be to create brand new weapon type

    Well. I somewhat agree but I see it differently.

    Destruction school of magic was always tied to elements in TES games.
    And restoration school is pure magic school, without any element.

    What Zos should do at some point is introduction of one handed weapons that are tied to magic damage, rather than elemental ones. This would provide a lot of benefits for magicka tanks, possibly some dual wielding as well. Also, please, no wands. Quarterstaves would be nice.

    Yeah, @Enslaved i know... BUT, It's ESO!

    In previous patches, Elemental Expert/Defender (Champion Points) only covered Flame, Frost and Shock Damage! Later Zenimax added Magic Damage. If you don't have any equipped staff and look at the description of the abilities, it says that it causes Magic Damage (and gains a new effect type depending on your staff type). You can't deny it. Such a weapon is missing!

    Easier and better option would be to create brand new weapon type

    Perhaps, @Olupajmibanan I had already considered a new type of weapon. Can be.

    Infused Resto or Lightning staff with a damage health enchant is what you are looking for friend.

    Maybe then one handed weapon (1h staff) and rune for the element (fire, shock, ice, magic) then. (when there will be a new weapon type like this)

    A destruction staff with magic damage would be so good an nb. Julianos with warmaiden, like sorc with juli and netch would be awesome...
