What exactly is the purpose of the staff? No one is going to use this... it's worthless.
No PvM players, Alchers, or PvP players are going to use it.
PvM / PvP - you're better off with a combo rune staff. In PvP, why carry 1000 nature runes in a staff when AT MOST, in one trip, you're probably going to use 50-100... And then you'll need to carry all the other runes with you anyways. You could have brought a mud battlestaff or lava and had unlimited water/earth / fire/earth runes and not needed to carry those runes in your bag, freeing up one slot vs. carrying both runes. And who cares about the melee stats? When have you ever seen someone use a staff for melee combat?
Alchers won't lose it because it's cheaper to use a fire staff and nature runes. Let's do the math.
1/15 chance to save a nature rune... current GE prices: nature rune: 202gp; fire rune: 5gp.
15*5*5gp + 13.929*202gp = 3188.658gp...... 212.577gp per cast.
0*5*5gp + 15*202gp = 3030gp....... 202gp per cast.
Even if the staff could hold 5000 fire runes and save those, it still wouldn't be worth it.
13.929 * ( 5*5gp + 202gp) = 3161.883gp..... 210.7922 per cast.
Unless my math is off - this staff is useless.
The only way the staff would be valuable is if the rate of saving nature runes was increased, or if the market price of nature runes increased.
