The original printing of Rare Staff of Focus gave +1 to damage spells, but not to polymorph damage or healing spells (wizards have no healing spells presently).

This version gives +1 to focus.

I think it's OK to make this one +1 focus, and then add errata that older versions also do that.

Otherwise the effect should change to +1 spell damage, or this token should get a new name (quarterstaff of focus).

The Craven Spike Suit now has 100% more spikes. Much better.

The Cloak of Hearty Luck gives a bonus to Dwarf Fighters and the Hearty Earcuff gives a bonus to Barbarians and Monks. Perhaps the Earcuff could add Dwarf Fighters?

Non-weapon bracers like this one do usually transmute to Mystic SIlk.

Good point. I will change it to Dawn Staff of Focus to explain the added boost. That gives folks another Dawn item, too!

Sorry, I am trying to spread the extra love around, and minimizing duplicates. Thanks for understanding.

Fixed! I was thinking since it has an AC bonus it would count as Armor -- and thus AG. I was wrong.

Jeff, for consistency, maybe change the Baton to the Dawn Baton of Focus?

Batons are 1H weapons, but Staves are 2H weapons...so we should probably stick to Staff. Thanks.

changing the baton into a rod to allow bard to use it would be nice. (in line with the +2 rod of focus from this year). Perhaps Dawn Rod +1.
