Electrostaff

An electrostaff is a weapon which looks like a staff, but conducts energy fields at its ends which can cause severe damage to living tissue and inanimate objects alike. They are often utilized by General Grievous's Bodyguards, the IG-100 Magna Guards, though Grievous and Obi Wan Kenobi are also seen using them. They are impenetrable to most weapons, even lightsabers. This is supposedly because they are made of rare Phrik Alloy.

Though not as elegant as a lightsaber, an electrostaff can be used effectively as a weapon and has more maneuverability than a double bladed lightsaber, as you can hold more of the weapon, rather than just the center handle.

Involving alot of spinning and difficult techniques, using the electro-staff is very difficult. Electro-staffs also use alot of the moves that a double bladed lightsaber uses.
