Can anyone tell me if oldschool adept staff heads had set stats?
for example halves cast of fire magic 20%
or are they "of items attribute"
Edit:
Didnt read all of wiki-
Uninscribable staffs dropped in Prophecies or Factions will never contain these staff heads; however, the staff heads can be applied to such staffs.
lol sorry for the waste of a thread
Oldschool mods

I am almost certain they did not. I could however be mistaken.

What do you mean by "oldschool adept staff heads"?
subman247
Taken from wiki
Adept- Halves casting time of spells of item's attribute (Chance: 10-20%)
Im asking if these mods used to drop like staff wrapping of mastery's did.
Staff wraps used to drop tied to one stat but then were changed to "of items attribute".
So by "oldschool" i mean, if they even exsist, an adept staff head that provides Halve cast to only one attribute like fire. So that if i put it on a staff with a Req of water it would still havle the cast of fire.

There is no Oldschool Adept Staff Heads. Im pretty sure they were introduced when inscriptions where introduced, ie NF release.

What Luminarus said.
However, they were definitely around before Nightfall, because the page on wiki was created in 2006. And the wiki took a while to come about and form, so it was definitely before that. Either came with Proph and Factions, then.
But yeah, the only change in functionality was upgrading from 5-10% chance to 10-20%.
EDIT:
Nevermind, I'm a moron. Forgot that Factions and Nightfall both came out in 2006...

I wish those existed but sadly they don't. They'd have some good uses as there are many staves which are quite or completely incompatibile with the Adept head (I mean either the staves with a different attribute requirement than inherent mod or staves that only have useless primary attribute req or pre NF-update staves with 2 gold inherents).
Well, in fact they didn't get changed completely as the old style Staff Wrappings of +1 to a specific attribute still drop, EVEN in Nightfall or Eye of the North (there's a 50/50 chance to get either type of wrapping in those areas).
Because both systems can coexist it would be a nice idea to introduce Staff Heads of HCT of a specific attribute, because of their non-mainstream usage they could be made quite rare or dropping in very specific areas exclusively. It would be one of a bunch of possibilities for actually functionally new items that wouldn't impact game balance at all.
