The Sour Staff is a Tier 3 magic tool that casts a potent Sour static charge from afar. Its spell takes the form of an electric sour ball, similar to the projectiles shot from ARC.Rs. The projectile is slow-moving and bounces off walls. When fully-charged, it creates larger range static explosions that deal 90 damage, covering more range and boasting the highest amount of stun in the game. This makes it very effective for cave exploration and crowd control. It is considered fairly late-game due to being unlocked from the Woodpile Chip in the Termite Den.
However, it is worth noting that using a staff has a "delay" after attacking. Once you attack with the staff, you have a brief waiting period or animation before you can attack again. During this time between launching an attack and the next attack, you cannot block as you can with other equipment where animation canceling is possible. This makes battling with the staff more challenging, particularly in situations where perfect blocking is essential.
As opposed to other staves, the Sour Staff appears to be unable to damage teammates in any way.
If Whittle Wizard is enabled, it inflicts more stun than normal.
