If only staffs could auto target as well, then they would be way more useful. For a while I had both the Kershal and Elondrian Rifle as well, and the only time I found the Kershal more useful was in the tombs where the mobs don't hit hard and the AoE regular attack and speed of the Kershal helped clear the mobs faster. But in PvP, elite dungeons and against any boss, a gun is way better.
