Staff

The Staff is Heretic's basic melee weapon. Like Doom's fist, prodding an enemy with the staff deals minor damage at short range. When using a Tome of Power, the Staff is surrounded by a blue aura that gives it a stronger impact. This weapon is useless against ghosts, even when in power mode.

Trivia
The puff made by the staff without the Tome Of Power is the same as the standard bullet puff in Doom
