A Staff of Light is a device of arcane Necron technology that serves as both a symbol of rank and authority, as well as a potent weapon for Necron royals. Shaped like a traditional Necrontyr staff with an ornate headpiece, its haft is actually a disguised power generator rod; and the crest a finely tuned focusing device which allows the wielder to unleash searing bolts of viridian energy at a rapid rate towards the enemy.

Despite sounding a lot like [[Gauss]] weaponry, the Staff of Light makes an exception among Necron technology. Instead of using Gauss technology principles, [[Wat|it absorbs energy from thin air to release in the form of powerful lightning bolts.]] A secondary effect of the energy is a steep decrease in the temperature around the wielder, the cold freezes the limbs of the opponents, mechanical or not, who shatters when hit by the staff.

These beams are so potent that they are even capable of penetrating Astartes Power Armor with ease. As well as being capable of projecting devastating blasts of energy at range, a Staff of Light also serves a similar function to a Power Weapon in close combat.

Later versions sport a Fractal Edged Blade on the top of the staff for increased damage.
