Hello, 1st time in here and i have been reading this wiki for years so yeah , i just want to help everyone in this wikia , nice to meet you all.

After researching quite a bit about upgrading the Insect staft, i think i know the rule :

+ To upgrade the staff, you must boost the level of your bug and it must be the same as the staff. And don't worry, the staff still change its appearance, so bug come 1st , then the staff.

+To boost the bug 's level, you use bug food, yeah , the jam thinggy everyone is talking about , that is bug food which come with its own atribute and each worth some points. And you can't just feed it randomly, see below.

+For the 1st form of your bug, you can manipulate the bug stat , that would be Power (attack power duh ) / Stamina ( how long it can fly around the field till it go back to your arm ) / Speed , the rest is just about elemental attack. And btw, the bug can have up to 2 different elemental attacks.

+ Those Power / Stamina / Speed must reach a certain number and also you must have enough point in order to evolve the bug, which caught my attention since it mean each staff user will have his / her own unique bug.

+ The bug new evovled forms offer different bonus, some will boost the speed of the bug , other form will boost how much bonus the bug can offer to you.
