The Knuckle Staff is a Staff introduced in Kid Icarus: Uprising. The Knuckle Staff is unique among Staffs, with its shots losing power as they travel and its melee attacks being the best of its weapon type. Its close combat abilities are on par with Blades. Its dash charged shots share the same attack power and range. It's the same for its continuous fire. However, its charge time is the second longest of of its weapon type.

Weapon Fusion[]

In Kid Icarus: Uprising, it is possible to fuse two weapons into a new one. The stronger the weapons you use are, the stronger the result will be. Certain weapon modifiers from the old weapons have a chance of being transported to the new one. There are many pairs of weapons that can be fused into a Knuckle Staff. The Knuckle Staff can also be fused into many other weapons. Here are just a few examples.
