The Spellsparkler
Proficiency with this weapon type unlocks:
Yrre the Sparkstruck intended to give the Spellsparkler to Lenore, a cleric of Mystra and old lover. But when the gnome returned to the cleric's tower, they found it empty - inhabited only by dust and abandoned experiments.
The Spellsparkler - most prominent Act 1 staff
Act 1, does not offer many weapons for casters. However, one can be easily obtained without any fighting. This stuff is perfect for casters that rely on multiple hits - Fireball, Scorching Ray, Eldritch Blast, etc. Each hit generates a Lightning Charge. Each charge adds a bonus of 1 lightning damage.
This may not seem much but with multiple hits and 5 stacks, it then deals 1d8 lightning damage. This effect can be utilized by Warlocks, Sorcerers, and most notably Eldritch Blast Spammer Build.
The staff is so good that it can be used late in the game until you obtain something like Markoheshkir.

Gale can absorb the Magic from this Item. If Gale consumes it, it vanishes forever. That is irreversible and unavoidable. But don't, just don't feed this one to his arcane hunger‼️
(There is better food for Gale: Ring of Color Spray, Frayed Drow Hood, Sunwalkers Gift, Everseeing Eye Necklace, Exterminators Axe; Hunting Shortbow, Kormira's Locket, Spiderstep Boots.)
