ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

Is it possible to dual wield staffs? I have two 'short' staffs, neither of which say that they have to be held in two hands, but I can't hold them both at the same time. Why is this? What can I wield at the same time as a staff?

I'm a necromancer - do I need staff combat or something? If so, is it possible to learn?

short staves are one-handed weapons, and as such can only be off-handed by reavers and krogs.

daggers/mindstars/whips(/steamsaws/steamguns) are the only weapons that can be used in offhand by everyone.

and there is the exception of telos bottom half which is a special staff that can be off-handed.

But dual wield staves would be awesome

OK thanks, that makes sense.

Btw there are staffs that aren't infused by acrane powers, for Krog.
But I'm not sure this ego could be on one-handed staffs, also even is so, not sure it can give something useful for anything Krog utilize.

staff reaver is a thing. And you could make an adventurer just to take corrupted blood for dual wielding.
