An attunement staff is essentially an empty staff, a spellcaster can imbue spell into the staff and cast them using the staff's own charge. Without any spell imbued into it it is simply a +1/+0 [[SRD:Quarterstaff|quarterstaff]]. Imbuing a spell into the staff is merely a matter of casting said spell into the staff. Once done, it is a known spell for the staff. A spell may be forgotten from the staff as a standard action. Spells cast from the staff use up a number of charges equal to 1/2 its spell level (round down, minimum 1). The number of total spell level and the maximum spell level that can be imbued to an attainment depend on it type (going from Novice to Archmage). You must still pay any XP or expensive material component from the imbued into the staff. | An attunement staff is essentially an empty staff, a spellcaster can imbue spell into the staff and cast them using the staff's own charge.
