The reason for not dumping a large number points into Staff is because the character is a shapeshifting druid and so spends most of his combat time in various animal forms. As a result, his Brawling skill will be pretty high and the investment to raise Staff to the point where it's as good (or even close to) Brawling is a pretty significant investment that's only relevant in a single form (even considering the +2 parry bonus for using a Staff). I suppose quickdraw may be the way go to draw the staff as needed. I'm not looking to benefit from the staff's parry stat. All I really want is to be able to parry with either hand while holding a staff (for turns I want to cast a spell). It didn't sound too out there considering we already have cinematic perks like Akimbo and Pistol Fist.
