I dont think staves were ever useful.. Not in the original, and even less so here.. Theyre LESS than useful.. Staff of Magnus will only be used until you get a 2nd or 3rd rank into your Ability points, and even then, its so weak its laughable... I htink the only time i used the staff, was to bash a door, or chest, to avoiid losing Durability on my melee characters weapon.. Even in D:OS..
That said, the people that complain about anything being "OP" tend to be the people who min/max the party for optimum dmg output, and combat efficiency.. Putting all points into combat skills, weapons, and defenses.. Everytime i saw a "build" it was told to ignore all the RP skills/abilities/traits.. I personally dont enjoy steamrolling enemies, and like having Charisma, Lucky Find, Telekenesis, Sneak, Lockpicking, Pickpocketting, Bartering, Leadership... If you wanted a combat sim, you picked a rather slow game for combat... I dont think i even get into my 1st fight until im lvl 5 in Divinity (except the opening scenes)..
