The Sun-on-a-Stick is a promotional melee weapon for the Scout. It appears as an ornate jet-black mace with orange veins, topped with a glowing fiery orb and black spikes.
This weapon delivers 15% less damage than the default Bat, but guarantees a mini-crit whenever a player strikes a burning enemy with it.
Players who pre-purchased RIFT on Steam before March 1, 2011, received a Genuine quality version of the weapon.
