The Technocratic Electro-staff is a custom-designed version of the pole-like electro-staff weapon. The shaft is custom constructed from dallorian alloy, making it more resistant to heat than a standard electro-staff. While it retains its strength, still able to block bladed and blunt weapons, the heat resistance allows for more powerful electrically charged tips on either end of the staff that in addition to still holding up against strikes from a lightsaber inflict a far deadlier strike to anything they contact. It has removed its stun setting, capable only of inflicting deadly discharges that can stop a sentient's heart after three full seconds of contact. It is carried by the cyborg shocktroopers in the Technocratic Guild as part of their advanced arsenal against Force users.
The handle of this weapon is equipped with a generator that sends constant electromagnetic pulses to the weapon's striking surface during use. While active, the striking surface of [this item] can parry lightsaber blades; however, the rest of the weapon is vulnerable to a lightsaber's plasma blade.
The handle on this Technocratic Electro-staff has been altered with a contoured grip, reducing the hilt size of Technocratic Electro-staff and allowing for maximum accuracy.
Technocratic Electro-staff has had a powerful magnetic coupler installed at its midsection, allowing for this Technocratic Electro-staff to come in half either on its symmetrical axis or vertical axis. This provides an unpredictable functionality in combat but does create a weak point in an otherwise solid weapon that can be exploited if an enemy becomes aware of it.
