The Sun-on-a-Stick is a promotional melee weapon for the Scout. It appears as an ornate jet-black mace topped with a glowing fiery orb and black spikes.
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 who pre-ordered RIFT on Steam before March 1, 2011 received a Genuine quality version of the weapon. The March 1, 2011 Patch made these variations of the weapon tradable. It has yet to be made craftable.
