Staff Charge Rate advice for fellow Psyker Mains. A.K.A The Void Staff's charge rate has serious diminishing returns.

I very recently (as in just now) came to own a very powerful void staff from my shop. Its good but when I saw the rate was a "mere" 66% I was initially disappointed. That was until I decided to compare with another void staff I had.

My void staff with the highest charge rate is 78% which allows the staff to charge to max in 1.67 seconds, my stronger void staff I just bought has a charge rate of 66%.

Now I expected there to be a notable difference since there is a 12% differerence between the main stats. Boy I was wrong.

The charge rate for a 66% void staff is a mere 1.70 seconds. A mere 0.03 second difference in charge time despite the fact that the actual stat has a 12% difference from each other.

So the shows that the void staff's charge rate stat has serious diminishing returns (at least at a certain point).

Now I made another comparison with a crappy void staff I have that I only own for the blessing. it has a charge rate of 54% giving the staff 1.74 seconds to fully charge.

Not much of a difference. My conclusion is that at least for the void staff the the charge rate is basically as much of a dump stat quell speed. Heck its even less important than quell speed as quell speed adds far more of an increase based on percentages overall.

So does the charge rate for void staff work the same for other staffs? I haven't put as much thought into those comparisons but with some cursary glances to my surge staff it seems the surge staff's charge rate may have less diminishing returns compared to the void staffs.

But I haven't gone too into cus I started getting bored.

tldr; charge rate on the void staff is stupid and dumb

Trauma-, Surge- and Voidstaffs have Charge Rate as stats while the Purgatus has a fixed chargetime of 1.75seconds.
So while Charge Rate is a wasted stat on the Voidtsrike Staff, it is kinda important for the other two.
The Surge Staff has a Chargetime of between 1.8 and 2.7seconds and Trauma of between 1.0 and 2.5 seconds.
So yeah, if you can get your hands on a Voidstrike Staff with everything on 80% except Charge Rate, you are golden
