as I've said on different threads - the staff was a SYMBOL of their power to me - no more, or no less.
notice in the book (and film methinks) - Gandalf breaks Saurman's staff WITH HIS VOICE - his own power within him. no mention of a staff.
he did use the staff to light up a fire back in the fellowship book wise - but I think that's about it.
To hold the Balrog from following them from the chamber in moria he used a Word of Command. Now here, to me, is his REAL power. And something I've always been interested in, but have not found much to read about. Exactly what were the words of Power? anyone know?
