Quicksilver quarterstaff is a very rare type of weapon in ADOM. Like a staff of smiting, staff of the magi or staff of power, a quicksilver quarterstaff is a separate type of item from other staves with generic prefixes or suffixes. The base stats of quicksilver quarterstaves are (+6, 5d3+5), though both to-hit and damage may be higher or lower on individual staves. Wielding a quicksilver quarterstaff yields a +20 bonus to speed, and grants 3 extra points of DV. Their weight and color distinguishes unidentified quicksilver quarterstaves from regular ones.
