One interesting new weapon for Old School RuneScape could be the "Turmoil Staff".
The Turmoil Staff would be a two-handed staff that requires a Magic level of 75 to wield. It would have a special attack called "Turmoil Wave", which would consume a large amount of special attack energy and unleash a powerful burst of chaotic energy in a 3x3 area around the player.
The Turmoil Wave would deal high Magic damage to all enemies within the area, and would have a chance to inflict a random status effect on each enemy hit. These status effects could include things like confusion, stun, poison, or even teleporting the enemy to a random location on the map. To ensure locations that would naturally be free of enemies remain safe, the teleportation of the enemy would only teleport the enemy to a place that it might normally move to on its own.
In addition to its powerful special attack, the Turmoil Staff would also have a high Magic attack bonus and would provide unlimited runes of a random element, making it a versatile weapon for Magic users. The type of rune the Turmoil Stuff provides an unlimited amount of is re-randomized every time the wielder casts a spell and could include combinations runes. This behavior prevents the staff from being an easy way to have an unlimited supply of a particular type of rune and therefore allows runes to better retain value. There are 21 types of runes in the game, which means that the Turmoil Staff would have a 4.8% chance of supplying any given type of rune.
However, the Turmoil Staff would come with a downside - using the special attack would also have a chance to inflict a random negative status effect on the player, such as reduced stats or a brief loss of control. This would make it a high-risk, high-reward weapon that would require skill and strategy to use effectively.
This weapon could be used for a Desert Treasure II reward.
