The Electrostaff is an alternate weapon intended for Jedi Shadows and their Imperial mirror, the Sith Assassin. However, even so, several Shadow and Assassin special abilities will not work with an Electrostaff, rendering it useless to them.

I find it really strange that they implemented a weapon that is totally useless for a class which signature skills are restricted to another type of weapon. It almost seems like they've completely forgotten about the Electrostaves.
I actually bought one and accidentally reverse engineered my double bladed lightsabre, since I did not realize that half of my skills would not work (Assassin).

Actually, this is untrue. You cannot put a Charge on an electrostaff. Which means for tanking (Darkness) specced Assassins, you cannot use Dark Charge at -all-, making it completely useless. That also goes for any other Charge. I've heard (but not personally confirmed) that the same is true of the Shadow equivalent to the Charges.

Edit: When I say 'this is untrue' I'm referring to kaziski's post, above mine, which states that "The only trees that actually requires Double-bladed Lightsabers are the Infiltrator tree for the Jedi Shadow and the Deception tree for the Sith Assassin (stealth and stabby specs)."

You can't use charges or force breach, the primary attack of any shadow/assassin, making staves useless. I assume this is a bug and will continue to report it as such.

Electrostaves are far from useless. The only trees that actually requires Double-bladed Lightsabers are the Infiltrator tree for the Jedi Shadow and the Deception tree for the Sith Assassin (stealth and stabby specs).

To be fair, the Electrostaff wouldn't have the same effect as a Lightsaber when stabbing (see video from extended universe).
