Staffs: Worth the trouble?

Prior to the new weapons the staff was the only weapon that attacked multiple enemies at once without the possibility of damage to ye self(read grenades). Or did great damage at a distance. But now after the release of the new weapons the staff is no longer the exclusive option. I have only one pirate that uses it as a primary weapon. For him it is part of his persona. He is a Gypsy mystic type. My older pirates use it on occasion for invasions.

Otherwise its Broadswords for shipboard combat, and muskets for long range death dealing.

Maybe if new rare and famed and maybe legendary staff get released I may change my mind.

So I may sell my staffs for the same reason Thunder did.
