Unlike in The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, Staves (or Staffs), are not melee weapons, but rather are magical weapons that are usually imbued with a magical attack, such as hurling out fireballs. Sneak attacks cannot be done with them. They can usually be found on conjurers and other magic-using enemies. In the later level Mages Guild Quests many will be dropped by slain necromancers. As a general rule, staffs weigh 10 File:WeightIcon.png. This applies to almost every staff except for the unique staffs. The unique staffs may vary in weight, some being heavier, others being lighter.
