Item Database - Aggressive Staff of Julian Redfire

Aggressive Staff of Julian Redfire Icon #156102 Julian Redfire was a meta-physicist who went through life in constant anger. Even as a child, he was so full of ire and frustration that neither his parents nor teachers could control him. As a grown man, he alienated most of his acquaintances due to his eruptive temper, but he was nonetheless a brilliant meta-physicist, scientist and researcher. Before his death, he constructed a large staff and managed to infuse it with the essence of wild rage, enabling the user to draw upon this essence and use it on their combat constructs for a brief period of time. Julian Redfire did not believe in immortalization through soul reclaim, and never insured himself. He died of cardiac arrest attributed to the constant physical stress his heart was under due to non-stop anger over the span of his life.
A staff which empowers meta-physical attack constructs, it is inscribed with the words, "We always long for the forbidden things, and desire what is denied us." The first time a Meta-Physicist uses the staff, it will upload the nanoformula "Aggressive Construct Empowerment", which can be used on attack constructs to increase their powers. The formula will only be effective while the user wields the Aggressive Staff of Julian Redfire.

Almost the exact same as Tigress..

Except there is no MBS! How much AR can a meta get with this stick? 80% TS/ 20% 2hb as AR should definatly help, and 300 AAO too ofc.
Obviously its missing tirgess' specials...
Dollcet @ 2009-02-02 16:31
sad how much favouritism a support-proff recives once a former player gets to be Dev ...
Tigress , SS , Shield of Zset , now this ...
Whats next : maybe a Stun-proc-nano for Pets ?
zerogates @ 2009-03-03 03:55
Yeah no MBS really matters when MPs get less than 10% damage returns from AR after 1k :p Maybe a trox MP using MR might get an extra 100 damage from 3500 ar rather than 2000 (don't feel like calcing the actual amount but its low)

@Dollcet
I sure hope so.

@Dolcett
what is really sad is that a proff needed a "former player gets to be Dev" to start being viable in pvp (ro lub child, as ppl started to call when they can t kill MPs q/afk)

The Peacekeeper reaches into a small compression pack at her waist, struggling as a rather decently-sized staff works its way from within.
Peacekeeper Coursey: This is kinda weird, but... It's something the R&D boys managed to find out at a previous Dust Brigade location. I don't really know what it does, to be honest, but they're all done with their testing and had me bring it with me to Rubi-Ka just to get rid of it. Figure if no one else wants it, maybe you can get some use out of it.
Taristin @ 2009-11-18 18:39
How nice of her! Coursey was a shrew to my shade..
triggerzer0 @ 2010-04-08 19:49
@ Comi

that's almost as big an insult as the description on hacked mediblade is to shades.
ziasod @ 2010-04-14 21:29
great a 2hb which mp's have no base for, on top of that it's based on time & space... what on earth does that have to do with melee..

wtb stop on making mp the new smurf...
i realy miss the time when mp's used ai pistol and swamp to itachi for pvp...
or at least gief 2he back to mp's!

How do I know if this thing is even working? I r-click on it, and a nano seems to run, but I don't see it in my pet's NCU or my own.
Hwguy @ 2021-03-31 12:05
Valkyrieval it only works if you're wielding the staff, the description says it: "The formula will only be effective while the user wields the Aggressive Staff of Julian Redfire."
Dancingrage @ 2025-11-18 22:12
@Valkyrieval: Using the staff uploads a nano into your list of nanos that you'll be able to find under "Aggressive Construct Empowerment" that you can then hotbar and cast.

Coming back to look at some of these old pages is a hoot.

My how things have changed. Some better, some worse. Still, even as we're doing okay, I can't help but look at Advies and think to myself, "Look how they massacred my boy!" When I was MP Prof, I used them as a sort of pole star to aim for. They done got butchered.

By the way, apparently every quote on these 2hb MP Staves are from a one Francois Rabelais, who lived in the 16th Century, 1500s for the rest of us. Alcofribas Nasier is a specific name he used to write about medicine, and Francois himself names the Mesmerising staff. The quote above about desire is also from him.
