Ahrim's staff

Ahrim's staff is a two-handed magic weapon that is part of Ahrim the Blighted's set. To wield Ahrim's staff, the player must have 70 Magic and 70 Attack to use the staff.

Being part of Ahrim's set, if the staff is wielded along with all of the other pieces of equipment in the set the player receives a special effect: successful attacks have a 20% chance of lowering the opponent's Strength by five levels. Wearing an amulet of the damned in addition to the entire set provides an extra effect: The staff gains the ability to cast Ancient Magicks, and any spell casted has a 25% chance of dealing 30% extra damage.

Ahrim's staff is not very popular due to the fact that it cannot autocast Ancient Magicks, it degrades and it is two-handed, meaning it cannot be used in conjunction with a book or shield. Most users of Ahrim's robes use an alternative staff such as the staff of the dead, which has better accuracy and damage output, is one-handed, and is non-degradable. The ancient staff is also a popular substitute because it is an affordable staff that can autocast Ancient Magicks.
