Commanding Canes were originally released as "Cane Fluff" for Ebon Gate 2002 and could be canes or runestaves. For Premium Festival 2025, they were updated and sold at Currents of Myth's Tideswept Bazaar. GM Tivvy updated the script to be tiered, added a new tier 3 with 4 new verbs, and made them flourish-compatible. Existing canes purchased before the update are automatically converted to the new style at tier 2 upon interacting with them.
Tier 1AnalyzeYou analyze the jadewood cane and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions.
The creator has also provided the following information:
This is a Commanding Cane. It may be altered, but the noun must remain either "cane" or, if it is a runestaff, an approved runestaff weapon noun.
It is currently Tier 1 of 3.
Verbs: LEAN, POINT, PULL, and PUSH.
You get no sense of whether or not the cane may be further lightened.
