It'll have the same "affinity" or whatever you want call it anyway and has an extra 5 AGI over Vulcan's. For Wildfire at least.

That and I mean... I'd think everyone has at least one set of Ele Staves, just throw those in a furnace and you're saving 7 inventory >_>;;

5 more AGI, plus Iridescence effect.

New staff should also better than vulcan's for last stand if you're subbing SAM, just for 5 more AGI and Iridescence for QD. And allow you to actually use the element that's weak against that type of the mob or matches the day/weather, let alone inv+7.

Prism staff.
Same boost as HQ staffs to every element.
And it has an extra +10% boost to current day element, if I understood that correct?

3 threads on first page in COR section with requesting Wildfire builds, also with 1 item vs 1 other the RQT would also be a good place to post.

Chatoyant is the clear pick, others mentioned why.

No not day, weather.

What Vulcan offers:
Ratt+10 5 STR (not that cor really need those, kinda sad they removed Ratt from new staff, but wont hurt us that much hihi)
15% DMG to Wildfire (15 Macc)

What Chatoyant offers:
5 AGI (and 5 STR)
15% DMG to Wildfire (15 Macc)
Iridescence = Enhanced Weather effect

so yea for Wildfire new staff owns :) even more if you have someone cast Fire Weather on you! (or you /sch and cast it on yourself)

from BGwiki:
Quote:
Iridescence adds an additional 10% potency bonus to weather procs (weather multiplier becomes 1.2 vs 1.1 for single weather, when it procs).

Elemental obis will force the combined Iridescence/Weather proc.
Iridescence has no effect on day potency bonus.

when you have weather effect active obi gives you the 10% normal weather bonus (which is without obi like a 1/3 chance to get) for single weather and if wearing new staff 10% staff bonus = 20%, but need weather for it; if no weather both will never happen

Chatoyant.

Everyone forgot to mention that you don't lose TP when utilizing ALL elemental QD shots, since you don't have to swap elemental staves!
