I found a really cool staff in the Temple of the Serpent; it's called the "Serpents Staff". When I had it identified it says that it is cursed. This really bums me out because it is the best staff I have found so far. What exactly is the curse, and can I get it removed so that my wizard can weild it?

It is cursed, it will stay cursed, there is nothing you can do to remove the curse.
: ( You will get a Wizard's Blade (a dagger) later in the game that does not look near as cool but will do more damage anyway. : ) Moni |

Thanks Moni, I figured that was the answer I was going to get. I thought I would ask before I got rid of it, it just looks like something a wizard should have. Hehehe

LOL It does doesn't it?
It hurt me to sell it but the Wizard's Blade makes the loss worthwhile. : ) Moni |

Why sell it? It's a decent staff, and the HP loss is so small, you've more than regenerated it back before it hits you again. Of course, when you do find the Wizard's Blade (which I STILL haven't, not in 3 playthroughs, GRRRRR) you'll have to pay the Temple to get it unstuck. The only annoyance is that every so often, you get the "XXX Loses 1 HP due to Serpent Staff's Curse" message popping up like a PBS asking for money during a membership drive...

I sold it because I had nothing to counter the loss of hit points at the time and had very few hit points to lose on my then weakest character.
; ) Besides, I don't like to hurt my own guys! : ) Moni |

Saz....you never had a wizards blade..??...I had three in my first play through...one I found in a chest (the one you are supposed to find) the other two I got by summoning fiend and pickpocketing them. I was doing this mainly for anks at the time but as a by product I got another two wizards daggers, but you will have to do it alot to get the daggers as they don't occur very often.

Hmmm....I may have to try that...summon fiend and pickpocket. I have opened every freakin' chest in this game and not one Wizard's blade have I found, not in 2 2/3 playthroughs. *sigh*. Which chest do you always find yours in?
