Why don't you just forget about short staff and hope like the rest of it that it goes away?

I still train it actually, because I've found it's actually pretty easy to train. Hits like a rolled-up newspaper, of course, even with the best possible nightstick.

Plus I'm holding out for a belaying pin.

Unless your training both, just train QS for now since the skills will be combined. QS while not the greatest either hits a bit better and harder.

Because i have characters that train SS, and not QS. And was just answering a question tho very late. While you might hate SS, my decisions shouldnt bother you. Ss has been fun and is good for RP and my character.

Because short staff makes for a great off-hand weapon with the easiest combos.

ME/HE(right)/SS(left): slice, sweep left and repeat

MB/HB(right)/SS(left): sweep, bash left and repeat

Your skill set placement doesn't effect what weapons you can use, only how quickly you'll learn the skill.

I think something was left out of the question. Instead it should have been: can you use short staff in your offhand if you're weapons tert?

Yes:

H> attack left
You leap out of hiding and ambush an adult desert armadillo, completely surprising it.
< Driving in like an adept combatant, you chop a short steel spear at an adult desert armadillo. An adult desert armadillo partially blocks with its plated hide. The spear lands a solid hit that turns the quadricep to mush and crushes the femur in a mighty strike across the left leg.
[You're nimbly balanced and in very strong position.]
[Roundtime 3 sec.]

It's a boar. It doesn't like you.

Unexpected...

>bash left
< You chop a lead-filled wooden truncheon at a giant thicket viper. A giant thicket viper attempts to evade. The truncheon lands a massive strike that drives the lungs into the throat with a strike to the solar plexus.
A giant thicket viper rises up threateningly one last time before collapsing.
[You're incredibly balanced]
[Roundtime 3 sec.]


A lead-filled wooden truncheon is a short staff melee-ranged weapon.

You are certain that it could do:
no puncture damage
no slice damage
fair impact damage

You are certain that the truncheon is fairly balanced and is fairly suited to gaining extra attack power from your strength.

Yes skillset does determine what you can use offhand. Weapon prime HE/HB and down. Weapons secondary get ME/MB and done. Weapon terts get LE/LB. Though they never said where SS fit in there that's the breakdown for offhand

I'm a trader and use it. So yes, weapon terts can use SS offhand.
