If its an air staff 'of something', it already has a staff wrapping. If its a 'X' air staff, then it already has a staff head.

For instance, if it were called 'Hale Air Staff of Fortitude', it would be completely upgraded and any additional modifiers you add would overwrite a stat it currently has.

PS - with the staff you listed, you could add a Defensive (Armor +4-5), Hale (Health +10-30), or Insightful (Energy +2-5) staff head.

how do i get "my attribute" +1? e.g +1 fire magic in that weapon? i had a fire wand before which had that.

first of all use the edit button

highest fortitude and hale stuff you get is going to be +30 health, and be prepared to give an arm and a leg for it.

what is better in your opinion? 5 armor or 5 energy for an elementalist who already have 79 energy.

These attributes are inherent to the weapon itself, i.e. it drops like that, you cant change it.

+30 and +30 = +60hp, so yes this is possible, but they are MAX values. I presume these are EXTREMELY rare (have yet to see one over +12 myself), and in the unlikely event that someone will sell them, expect to pay a fortune.

There will be no definative answer to this question, it is all down to personal preference, where/who you are fighting, etc.

Do you find yourself with plenty of energy, but get hit alot? go armor. Dont get hit much, but have energy issues? go energy.

thank you for the answers. i actually have seen a 29hp wrap. but does 5 armor makes big diffrence? the max for E is 60, and with that it would mean 65 armor - same max armor as necromancer has. will i feel the diffrence really?

my choice as elementalist?
5 armor
5 armor

70 armor means -16% dmg
