Personally, I don't think it's that big of a bug. If the Staff strikes as a +5 weapon, then it's a +5 weapon. Having all this stuff about "Does X damage, but strikes as a weapon of Y enchantment" is confusing as hell for a newcomer. How many people have we seen think that the Daystar strikes as a +4 weapon? Etc.

I'd like to go in and clean up all the files with funky enchantments. Flame Tongue, the Defender of Easthaven, Jerrod's Mace, the Mace of Disruption, the Bastard Sword+1 (+3 vs. Shapeshifters), etc.....at least the Equalizer gives you all the right information in its Description.

Getting back to the SotM: How much time does a Wizard spend in melee range anyway?
