The The Ban Stick is a staff exclusive item.
Description
Smite thee with crowbar fury.
Attacks
Basic Attack
A three swing combo with the last hit knocking back enemies.
Charge Attack
A full 360 degree spin, knocking back all enemies in range. Beware that this attack will also deal direct damage to and knock back other party members. The charge attack deals split piercing and normal damage.
Damage
Damage is unverified. Despite the elusively low damage bar, on depth 28 it is estimated to around 8000 for the first strike.
Notes
The Ban Stick is a standard and iconic Game Master exclusive weapon.
Why a crowbar? Who knows, but it could be an allusion to Gordon Freeman's trusty crowbar from the Half-Life series. The phrase "ban stick" has also been used for many years by the player community in Puzzle Pirates, another game developed by Three Rings.
