About the Voodoo Staff
The Voodoo Staff is more powerful than the Voodoo Doll, but it can be used only to attack. Because it deals out large amounts of damage, it requires more Voodoo Power to use.

Attacking with the Voodoo Staff
Unlike the Voodoo Doll, the Staff does not need to attune to a target. Like the Doll, the Staff works well from a distance. When attacking in a group, your mateys can engage the enemy at close quarters while you keep to the edges casting multiple hexes.
When you activate your Staff, you will see a meter that shows the power of the Staff as it builds. The Staff cannot discharge your hex or spell until the meter reads full so if you let go before a spell is fully charged, your spell will fizzle.
