Given how many magic staves there are, quarterstaves feel kind of weirdly useless these days. They were the only two-handed weapon in wizard proficiency, and we now have two more classes that get that proficiency!
But quarterstaves got changed to a dual weapon years ago. So they require two feats to actually use, meaning they are *worse than useless* to most PCs who are likely to use them.
This feels odd for the simplest weapon in the game, literally six feet of wood.
Since the brilliant change where ambidexterity gives you weapon buffs to both weapons, a 1d6 Strength based double weapon isn't very appealing. Because you can't put your offhand away.
I think it could do with being a two-hander again. Please give us our suboptimal but iconic Beefy Wizard Headcracker of Last Resort back! 1d6 19-20 would not compete with all the powerful spears but it would mean it would be possible to actually hit someone with your skills stick.
It would mean that it is not an entirely useless weapon for Wizard Prof classes or STR rogues. Small wizards arguably do better at hitting people than big wizards. Because of how easy it is to get a high damage club that will have a 1.5 times strength multiplier for you.
Currently the only characters who use quarter staves are dual-wield monks, on account of being able to put out a ludicrous number of attacks and it having a better crit range than a kama.
I have realised that these have the added benefit of 'You can't wield a knife or shield with them as they are a two-handed weapon'. It seems like Magic Staves proliferated when we got the fantastic new low-fantasy skins for them. But they don't disable the offhand, which is one reason we have lots of Shield Arcanists. The other being +1 Aspect Slot.
A few good two-handed Wizard/Sorc/Astro/Priest weapons would really up the aesthetic variety of the server. Right now, you may as well have a Torch or Tray or Gem just as an Aspects/Stat Stick as it looks alright. Leaving that offhand slot open is just a waste.
