Staff Magus Weapon Specialization

Seems

Active member
I'm making a 12th level staff magus and can't seem to get Weapon Specialization as an option. I have Quarterstaff Master and Weapon Focus in Quarterstaff, but it's still not activating for me as a valid feat choice. I can add it via an adjustment, but just wondering if I'm doing something wrong or if that feature of the archetype needs to be implemented?

Thanks!
 
I just made up a 10th level magus, selected weapon focus in Quarterstaff and had no trouble being able to select Weapon Specialization. (With and without selecting Quarterstaff Master).
I don't have access to the Staff Magus archetype - which removes Fighter Training, but the Quarterstaff Master feat should still let you specialize.
Double-check what you have selected and try to add the feat again. If you still can't get it working submit a bug report. Something in the archetype or the coding of Quarterstaff master feat must be wrong.

Submitted! I tested it with and without the staff magus archetype, and adding the archetype disables the ability to select Weapon Specialization.
 
I just tried this:
I create a level 1 magus.
I add the Staff Magus archetype.
I go to Feats and add Weapon Focus (quarterstaff).
I see that Weapon Specialization feat is not marked as a valid choice for the class (I have "Everything" selected, not just "Only Valid items".)
I select the Weapon Specialization feat anyway, and I choose Quarterstaff - the feat goes to black indicating that it is a valid selection.

When initially selecting the Weapon Specialization feat it is not marked as a valid choice because only one specific weapon combination is allowed. When you choose that specific choice, then the feat is marked as valid.

Having looked again, there is even a NOTE in the tooltip for Quarterstaff Master that says that this is how it will work.

So noted! Thanks all!
