The Sun-on-a-Stick is a promotional melee weapon for the Scout. It appears as an ornate jet-black mace topped with a fiery orb and black spikes. The lava trapped within the weapon results in glowing orange streaks.
The Sun-on-a-Stick deals 15% less damage when compared to the Bat, but guarantees a Mini-Crit when the Scout bashes a burning enemy with it.
Players can currently receive the item by pre-ordering RIFT on Steam before March 1, 2011. Players that do so will receive a Genuine quality version. Some time following the RIFT pre-order period, the weapon will become available via crafting and weapons received during the pre-order period will be made tradable.

Update history
- Increased the base damage for the Scout's Sun-on-a-Stick, and changed it to always Mini-Crit against burning targets if the attack is not already critical. Previously the weapon only had fixed increased damage against alight enemies.
- Updated the RIFT pre-order items to be not-tradable until the RIFT pre-order period is over.
Trivia
- According to Trion Worlds' press release for the promotion, the Sun-on-a-Stick was originally intended to use the Boston Basher's stats.[1]
- The item description refers to the line spoken by the character Alejandro Murrieta in the film Template:W.[2]
