Very nice though, wish I had one.
skill recharge/casting applied to all spells, is maxed at 10%. these are not the 20/20 you see for a specific spell type like fire,air etc.

Sorry to burst YOUR bubble, but thats like claiming the ascalon bow (short bow version) with 15% while health is above 50% is worth as much as a short bow or half moon with the same mods.

A: Your mommy was wrong.
B: The collector staff is EXACTLY the same as what that guy has stat-wise other than it's not 20/20. So ok, it's gold. WOOoOOOoOOOo.

If you looted it like that, good on ya. If you put those mods in... well, not smart thinking.

No guys - you're wrong in two points:
1. The "pure" skill recharge and casting time boni (so the ones that apply to ALL skills) have a cap of 10%, so 8% and 7% is quite OK.
2. The collector staves have 20% boni on both CT and SR, but only for SPECIFIC SKILLS (like fire magic skills) and this might be good for a pure Fire E (who is becoming less and less popular cause Air Es are like twice as good for the sake of dmg spiking), but might be worse for other builds.

I guess the point I'm trying to make is that yes, it's focused from the collector, but you can get whatever collector staff you want in about 5 minutes. I have one of each myself all modded.

Yeah - I can't argue with that one. I'm using two collector staves myself. Of course you MIGHT find a better Wand/Focus combo, but that's highly unlikely and staves are SO easy to customize so that they suit your taste.
I mean, hell, with the right upgrades the collector staves are simply the best staves in the game. I don't care about an item being gold or purple if it's so uber.

Well technically it's 7 extra fire on each meteor, and that + archane echo, you got a winner.
Not really. The skills max out at 12 as your colleague observed and the boni you get after 12 are not really worth giving up 50 or 75 hp since when you compare the damage bonus vs. your hp penalty you'll surly see that it works to your disadvantage. Most good players I know use minor runes only. (P.S. How do you intend to hit 19 with Fire Magic? It's rather 18 - 12 base + 3 Sup Rune + 1 Item + 2 % while using items... 0_o)
P.S. Don't get me wrong - a score of like 14 (with a minor rune) and 16 with +% items is fine for me - I'd just never go further than that by putting a Sup Rune on ya. =) Do some math: calculate how many spells you'd have to cast on an enemy while the enemy would be casting spells on YOU to overcome you 75hp penalty - hell - it's just as if you'd be running around with a permanent DP. 0_o
