You are a berserker and pain is useless without necro skill. Using that staff would, one way or another, utterly cripple your character. Don't switch.

Re: CIP KoBe Am I supposed to switch to staves?

Take off that ring of ice! It's not worth it since any orc mage out there could kill you in 1-2 shots. If you really need the cold resists, say you see an ice beast, then put it on for that fight only.

Return to YASD! YAVP! and characters in progress too
