Staff of Hexes (or Charms)
As I'm taking my current character into the Vaults with only 1 available pip of mR+, I was thinking it'd be nice to have a 'Staff of Hexes'. My immediate selfish desire for such an item would be to convey a single pip of mR. But for those who branch into Hexes for spells like Confuse and/or Tukima's Dance, which seem broadly helpful and not tied lock-step with a stabber playstyle, I think a hexes staff would be nice for spellpower boost as well. I don't delve into hexes very often ... so I can't opine much on how many Hex-based spells are very spellpower-reliant.
I'd expect a few arguments here that some veterans would rather remove all enhancer staves, than add a new one. Or, a flavor-based argument that "Hexes are for stabbers, so putting a booster (and a corresponding mR+) property on a staff is illogical." Then we start exploring the concepts of another recent thread, that talked about some kind of off-hand enhancer for spellcasters.
TL;DR: Whether on a staff or on some new kind of caster off-hand item, please consider an item type that boosts Hexes and provides 1 pip mR+. Muchas gracias.
