pretty much ALL of the pathfinder staffs are just collections of spells, because, why would anyone ever want to do anything but cast spells?!  they would be easy to import, since the spells pass is ready for primetime.  now, there are already a lot of magic items proposed that can be used to grant spellcasting and can actually be used by a gish-style melee character because they don't tie up both hands.


so...ditch staves completely? convert some rod concepts into staves? keep staves as pools of spells and integrate them into a gish-strategy for anyone who wants it? keep staves as pools of spells that also grant buffs for a real spellcaster?

Move metamagic abilities from rods to staves, combined with lists of spells. This lets us use the existing pathfinder stuff. No more ketamagic rods. No longer raises the slot required if you have the feat. You have to have the metamagic feat to benefit from this element of the staffs power. This allows gish, but at a price.
