For staves in other games, see Staves (Origins) and Staves (Dragon Age II).

Staves are mage weapons in Dragon Age: Inquisition. All staves deal elemental damage – either electricity, fire, or cold – and are the only weapons to do so. There are no nature, physical, or spirit damage staves in the game. In addition to normal attacks, each sixth attack in a row fires three projectiles instead of one (each dealing normal staff damage) and applies either shocked, burning, or chilled effect, depending on the staff damage type.

Crafted Staves

Note: Refer to the Weapon schematics page for a full list of crafted staves schematics.
