The SRD only gives a means to determine costs and weights of weapons for Large and Small versions based on the Medium weapons. Any other supplied values are the author's best determination.

This appears to be a normal Quarterstaff but on close look there is a switch on it that when triggered fires a dart out one end.

This functions as a quarter staff for melee and a dart for ranged. Using this weapon, you can take a standard action and fire the dart as if you were throwing it. It takes a move action to reload the Dart staff. You can use a full-round action to fire the dart and then attack with the staff (same enemy).

You can upgrade the firing mechanism in the staff.

• Upgrade 1: Increases range by 10 ft (total 30 ft) Cost: 50gp
• Upgrade 2: Increases the power of the dart, dealing +1 dmg (total 1d4+1) Cost: 100gp (upgrade 1 must be added before this one)
