A staff is a cheap magic weapon which provides modest magical bonuses and the autocast option when equipped. Due to not possessing any elemental features and offering poor combat stats, it is only useful as a very cheap option for autocasting.

The staff can most easily be purchased from Zaff's staff shop in Varrock. It can also be bought on the Grand Exchange, obtained through other players or dropped by various enemies.

Although it is obtainable for a lower price than other staffs, investing into an elemental staff will save a lot more over time in rune costs.
