Staff of Forbidden Rites
 

So, just curious, is this thing rechargeable? How much does it cost to?

Yes.

More than you can afford.

can someone add that knows for sure?

I remember hearing 110k being thrown around for a recharge cost, but can't confirm that and I'm not sure if that was the single buy back price or the total recharge price. Either way, it is expensive enough that none of the guilds I've been a part of that do recharges have bothered recharging them with any regularity. Easier to just have a rezzer camped or have EEs on a necro.

I asked the same question to a person selling one in EC some time ago: ~1 million to buy back each staff (recharging by merchant). I don't think he BS'ed me since he was, after all, trying to get it sold.

~205k (to a Gnome w/ 60 charisma and a human merchant in North Freeport)

WTS 90% rez, 40k.

well, at the 205k estimate, and assuming 10 charges, that's ONLY 20.5k per rez. That's all. :P

No wonder I've seen people selling them "in bulk" for 35k each. That's practically a steal comparatively speaking.

And chances are we won't be seeing rez sticks gone from vox since that was only removed from her loot table late into SoL/early PoP.

Another rez option would be this
