About this mod

Changes most mage staves in Origins, Awakening and DLC to wood.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
As everybody knows, the majority of staves used by mages everywhere are made of wood.  Heck some of them even look like fallen branches!  So why were they all classed as metal?

This simple mod changes every staff, except the Corrupted Magister's Staff (RtO) and The Dragon's Call (Awakening) which state in their description they are made of metal, to use a Wood material type.  This does have a side effect of very slightly increasing both the range and armor penetration of a mage's staff.

This will not change any staves currently equipped or in your inventory, you will need to use the additem console command.  It does however work perfectly with a new game.

Change log

v1.1: Added Sketch's Split-Shaft in Leliana's Song.

v1.0: Changed most staves from metal to wood.  Upgraded Sylvan's Mercy from Tier 4 (Veridium) to Tier 6 (Sylvanwood) to match the item description.  Changed model variation of the Awakening Darkspawn Staff to match it's Origins counterpart.

Installation (Main File)

Extract the Wood Mage Staff folder to your override folder, usually: Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age\packages\core\override

Installation (Optional File)

Extract the erf file to your override folder, usually: Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age\packages\core\override

Full credit for the optional file must go to TommyIrianto for creating the amazing Grey Wardens of Ferelden mod.  All I am doing is bringing the staff from that mod into line with my own mod, which was more something I did for myself but decided to share it with everyone due to the popularity of GWoF.
