*slight spoilers* The staff of Cherished Necromancy is broken lol

[Mr. Man]

I found a glitch with the staff that not many people seem to talk about. Basically anytime you kill something with the staff, it gives you life essence that you can spend to use a necromancy spell as an action, not using a spell slot. However you can get life essence from ANYTHING with a health bar, such as doors, chairs, barrels, boxes, etc. (you can see where this is going) So you can level 6 blight on enemys for free like 20 times if you want just by breaking some doors. This is very broken so I thought I'd put it out there for others to try it if they so please

Hm, according to the bg3 wiki, life essence itself is broken as of patch 4, and can be used indefinitely.
Getting it off of inanimate objects and non-hostile creatures would definitely be another bug though.

New bg3 lore just dropped: every item in the game has a soul in it
