In the era of the Galactic Republic, the Senate Vice Chair, who served under the Supreme Chancellor, carried the Speaker's staff to symbolize their role. Mas Amedda was in this position as the Republic neared its end.
During the Clone Wars conflict, the electrostaff in its various forms was wielded by the IG-100 MagnaGuards of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, as well as the clone shock troopers of the Coruscant Guard. Soon after the First Battle of Geonosis, a clone trooper named Cut Lawquane abandoned the Grand Army of the Republic. He then took up residence on Saleucami as a farmer. He used a staff that had a rounded loop and three spikes on one end, allowing him to use it effectively as both a farming tool and a weapon.
