STAFF SLING (bludgeon) ===================== Weight: ~4kg Rank(s): 2nd and 3rd While the staff sling might at first look like a long-handled slingshot, the resemblance is purely visual. True, the staff sling is basically a staff with a forked end, which has a pocket or basket in it, but the weapon is not fired like a slingshot. Instead, a stone or bullet is placed in the pocket, and the staff sling is swung forcefully. This causes the ammunition to fly outwards and upwards, crashing down on a hapless victim with a hefty impact. See also: slingshot, sling
