[[File:Staff of air detail.png|left|90px|An Air battlestaff]]
An '''Air battlestaff''' is an air [[elemental staves|elemental staff]]. It requires 30 [[Attack]] and 30 [[Magic]] to wield and also provides an unlimited number of [[air rune]]s. Air battlestaves can be created using the [[Crafting]] skill at level 66 by using an [[air orb]] with a [[battlestaff]], granting 137.5 [[Crafting]] [[experience]]. It is also dropped by monsters and a reward of [[Treasure Trails|Treasure trails]].

The headless battlestaff can be purchased from [[Naff]] in Varrock. As the name suggests, the staff features a higher attack bonus than the staff of air, making it a better staff to use rather than the staff of air. Visually the air battlestaff is identical to the [[staff of air]] and the [[mystic air staff]]. It can be upgraded to a [[Mystic air staff]] by Thormac for 40,000 coins after completing the [[Scorpion Catcher]] quest or for 27,000 coins while wearing a [[Seers' headband 3]].

This item is commonly used with the [[high alchemy]] spell as it is profitable to alchemise and there is a relatively large supply.

With 85 [[Crafting]], players may attach a [[shade skull]] to the Air battlestaff, creating a [[Skeletal battlestaff of air]].

==Production costs==
The data in this table is based on the Grand Exchange prices of the Battlestaff and Air orb. It is accurate assuming both items are bought off of the Grand Exchange and the completed Air battlestaff is sold afterwards. You may also buy Battlestaves from [[Naff]] in the staff shop in [[Varrock]]. The number of staves you can buy from him depends on your progress in the Varrock area Tasks.
