3 Weapons that makes you a god.

1. Tesla Staff
2. Kluex Staff
3. Frozium Staff

I've seen some posts that say staffs are gimped but I cannot understand why.

Tesla Staff's special will kill all bosses within 2 cycles. (Except for Big Ape, cuz you need to destroy 4 while evading. Still, it's pretty darn quick.)

Kluex Staff, while somewhat useless against small, fast moving targets, has a built in Rage and has ludicrous burst dps.

Frozium Staff comes with special that blocks all damages, and its normal attack, while being extremely potent, can zone out an area.

For those who haven't yet tried out the "mage" build, do try it out.
It's awesome.
A bit of getting used to is needed as there is a significant charge required, but even so it's incredibly potent.

Farm tier 6 versions of all three and my god they are strong.
Highly recommended

P.S.

Am I just really unlucky or do boss trophies have an absurdly low droprate?

 

Those staves are pretty good, indeed
And for the trophies, I think the droprate is something like 1%, or even 0.1%

 

Unless its been changed its 5% for the boss figurines (0.1% for normal monster figurines like for the poptop for example). So on average you should get one in 20 boss fights.

That said, getting one in 40 boss fights is as easy as flipping a coin to the same side twice in a row So don't be suprised if you have to fight the bosses ALOT in order to get it (if you are unlucky we are easily talking about hundreds of fights).

 

I got all boss trophies on average around 4 - 30 battles per boss.

Even though the boss weapons are 10% to drop, I tend to get the rarer trophies rather than their weapons.

 

Its 5% as opposed to the 10% drop chance for the respective weapon of the respective boss

 

Yep.

Was farming for 2 Dragon Pistols, but got 3 trophies before the weapons actually dropped (not complaining of course, since the Dragon trophy looks awesome).
