Any mage who use the Slingstaff regularly knows it takes time to master. With enough practice a caster who uses the Slingstaff can make extra effects that can be applied.
Each of these effects can be activated as a bonus action:
Energy Barrage- You slam your staff into the ground shooting out a number of energy blasts equal to your spell casting modifier, when activating this ability make an attack roll as you would for the Slingstaff. These blasts deal damage equal to two-thirds of the damage your Slingstaff deals. (example: if your Slingstaff deals 6d8 fire damage roll 2 instead.
Stone Fist- You thrust out your staff toward an enemy within range (60 ft.) and conjure a large fist of spiritual energy, make an attack roll as you would with your Slingstaff. This fist flies at the target and deals damage equal to your Slingstaff's damage times 2. If the attack hits you can also cause the target to be knocked prone. They must make a Strength saving throw versus your spell saving throw DC.
