This is possibly the best staff between 10 - 19. Any Mage/Warlock/Priest twinks really need to get this item. It drops of Captain Greenskin, who is the second last boss in the Deadmines. It's not hard to get; after a few runs your bound to have at least one drop.

One problem about this staff (for non-twinks, at least) is that you shortly afterwards receive The Staff of Westfall from killing Vancleef and turnning in a quest. You will then have to choose between spirit and intellect, the first being more important for healers.
You don't need to be twinked to have this great item, possibly your first blue.

Kommentar von Asher

If you aren't lucky enough to grab this staff, don't worry. Run BFD and you will get Rod of the Sleepwalker. Both staves are great, but the one quickly follows this.

Kommentar von 8171

Great staff for low level casters of any class can be used for many levels as is well balanced. Easily obtained with a group and will be used till higher level 25-30+ staves are available

Kommentar von crazyeyeskilla

I've always thought Crescent staff is a bit better than this. It is a quest reward for killing all the bosses in Wailing Caverns.

Kommentar von 8271

I love this staff on my mage great stats better then staff of westfall.

Kommentar von Poker

For Horde, don't waste your time coming to Westfall to snag this weapon, but if you're Alliance, it's definitely the obvious choice over the Staff of Westfall, whether it be for twinking or leveling.

Kommentar von Thottbot

great staff for that level. used it up to lvl34.
try and get it if you can : )
played DM twice, and it dropped each time. lost on the roll first time round but got it the second time round..

(The additional red glow is an added beastslaying enchant.)

There's a reason why I call the alternative the "Staff of %^&*!@fall", this is it. Do yourself a favour, Alliance casters, run VC as many times as needed.

Kommentar von Thottbot

The Emberstone was a great item.

This staff served me faithfully almost from level 18 all the way up to my current level, 34. It proved to be great for me (a priest) and I never had great reason to go get anything else...

To all level-18 VC-age casters: pick this one up. You'll be using it for a long time :)

...But not forever. If you do get the chance, pick up the Rod of the Sleepwalker in BFD and then, once you hit 34, head up to Scarlet Monastery and pick up the Illusionary Rod (a-f*cking-mazing for casters)

<Also pick up the Hydrocane from Gnomeregan... not as good as this, but its equip effect is invaluable (underwater breathing)>

Kommentar von Thottbot

As druid I was getting really bored on my 2nd healing run on Deadmines. I was annoyed at losing all the rolls and having the DPSers picking up all the white loot.

Then I got this drop AND Smites Mighty Hammer. Sweet! A great combo for druids. That made my day :)

Kommentar von Thottbot

got it first try in deadmines at lvl 19. second time in there I got the minor beastslaying enchant. As the red stone is already bright in dark conditions the glowing red cloud around it is awesome. Stats are great and will last a while. If you are a caster you must aim for this staff,it's worth it.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Realy cool staff. I got it at lvl 18 human priest. Will keep it until something better drops.

Kommentar von Thottbot

It dropped the second time for me in the deadmines and I won the roll against another mage and a priest. This staff is better for a mage then the staff of westfall (the quest reward for killing vancleef).

All mages should definately try to get this one. And it looks amazing with a +2 beastslaying enchant on it, the crystal in the staff is red and seems to light up with the enchant.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I used it on my Priest from level 19 to level 44 at 44 I got the Illusionary rod

Kommentar von Thottbot

hunter weapon

Kommentar von Thottbot

if ur a druid or priest that wants a healing staff than don't go for this. go for https://www.wowhead.com/classic/item=8186/zauberstab-des-terrors its same damage, has less stamina and intellect though. but it has

Equip: Increases healing done by spells and effects by up to 24.

so if you get an good enchant it it i'd say its better. im currently using the staff of the blessed seer(link up there) on my 18 druid and it rocks especially with my enchant and in WSG.

Just consider it, btw i got it from a guildie and the low drop rate from the mob is worth it!

Kommentar von Thottbot

think ill try to get this staff for my shammy. has good caster stats.

Kommentar von Thottbot

It seems so simple it is almost silly.

Grab the boat from Ratchet to Booty Bay. Jump in the water and swim to Westfall.
Come on land, bypass the Defias nasties. Be sure there are atleast two of you, summon the rest of your group via meeting stone to the right of the hut that leads to the instance.

Run in and keep moving as fast as you can.When you reach the last few turns just all out run, jump down and there you are.

Doesn't seem so complicated really.
Yes, it's a helluva far to run, but not so far or dangerous as Alliance has to run to get to Wailing Caverns for instance (though we have the E-Z mode way of running through Ashenvale...given that no one ganks you along the way.)

We did repeated runs of DM like this. We had two druids that swam ahead, summoned everyone and then we just ran in and did our thing.

Hope it helps.
Dreihaddar, Defias Brotherhood.

Well, i got it from DM too, its way better than Staff of Westfall... And was great for my level 22 =)

Twisted Chanter Staff is better for most caster classes, and is not usually expensive on AH.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

personally i would go with the emberstone staff it has better stat raises.

took me two runs through the deadmines to get it too.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

It is just my druid's luck that 5 runs and 3 levels this staff won't drop. Went there since level 17 so now I'm using the blue staff from BFD (Sleepwalker). I do prefer this staff because of +stam for PVP. Yet have to go DM again until I get this for 20s WSG.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

The Emberstone Staff is great; no doubt. I preferred it over the quest reward Staff of Westfall for my druid when she was low level.

However, for Shadow Priests and Warlocks, there is a better staff. It had 8 int, and no other stats, but it *does* increase Shadow Damage, and it's only level 17 -- Witching Stave -- it's a BoE, so you can farm for it in SFK and Silverpine Forest, or buy it in the AH.

It is a World Drop in these two areas (SFK and Silverpine) - and well worth getting to increase your shadow damage. I ended up DEing my Emberstone and the Quest Reward Staff of Westfall and going with the Witching Staff until I hit level 24 when I went with the Rod of the Sleepwalker, found in Blackfathom Deeps (BFD)for more int and spirit.

The Rod drops from Twilight Lord Kelris and according to Allakhazam is his most frequent drop at 45.75% -- other than the head which drops for the quest to kill him -- grab the quest is you're coming there, two are given by the Argent Dawn folks in Darnassus, one in Auberdine, and one in IF -- here is the Quest list for that zone. Note that there is a Warlock specific quest, and what appears to be a fifth Alliance quest is a follow up from one of the AD quests, In Search of Thaelrid which leads to Blackfathom Villainy and is the quest to get Lord Kelris' Head.

Interestingly (and a royal pain, lol), I had to run this SEVEN times to get my Rod of the Sleepwalker - I kept getting those Gaze Dreamer Pants which are a green drop, not that great, and are supposed to drop less often, 31.93% of the time, as opposed to the Superior (blue) Rod of the Sleepwalker I was after, which should drop far more often. Bad luck -- BFD is fine, but running it 7 times isn't great fun ;)

Finally I got the Rod, and also a nice bonus, Leech Pants, which dropped from Aku'mai-- his most frequent blue drop. He also drops the really nice Moss Cinch nearly as often, a great item for druids, with +11 int, and +5 stamina -- I remember getting this belt on my druid a long time ago and being very happy with it.

Happy hunting ;)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Isn't the Staff of Westfall better overall? Or is it a play-style preference? I play Paladin, so I don't really pay much attention to staves.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

its slow, its weak, it gives no stats a hunter could ever use for ranged DPS (or melee for that matter). HUNTER WEAPON!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

imo, better than westfall, if only for looks. Alternative to this would be Rod of the Sleepwalker, found in blackfathom depths. I actually switched Emberstone for Sleepwalker, only because on the added int.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I got the Emberstone staff at about level 20 when i used to run the Deadmines just to get cash and Exp off the bosses and elites, i only got one of the emberstones and staff of westfall, i saw alot of higher level players back then that used the Emberstone and i dont think i saw one that used the staff of westfall, so i opted for the emberstone and still use it now, and i am level 31 now :D i dont melee that much tho, if i do, i do little to no damage with it because of the lack of strength and i prefer the use of VW and my wand, the Gravestone Scepter and my DoT's so the Int is better for my style of battling, it all depends on what style you like to play whether u are more suited to the Westfall or Emberstone

Kommentar von Allakhazam

i'm a mage. what would be a good staff for around mid 30's? i've been using this staff and never thought about getting a new one. prefer stam/intel > spirit

I had this, the jeweled ring, the brotherhood cape, Cookie's wand, and Magefist Gloves drop for me on my first run, and I am a level 13 Warlock that got rushed through
So sweet

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Icicle Rod
Rute des Eiszapfens got this staff when I was like 20 or so with a VERY easy quest for that level at Menethil Harbour (which somehow does'nt exist in the list of quests by zones :/), and I still use it at level 28. Right, It doesn't add as much stats as this Emberstone or the Westfall Staff, but hey, It adds ICE SPELL DAMAGE, and it has a higher damage for a critical because it's slow and has bigger damage range.

How come every staff I find as reward is hardlly a match for this simple Icicle You can easily get without going through a whole instance and or doing an elaborate quest to get it?
Even the Staff of Soran'ruk has great stats but
Stab von Soran'ruk lower damage! and it's only for warlocs and done at a much higher level instance

Here's a compilation of the 4 Reward staff links
Icicle Rod
Rute des Eiszapfens of Soran'ruk (Warloc only)
Stab von Soran'ruk of Westfall
Stab von Westfall Staff (this page :P)
Glutsteinstab another staff I simply didn't take because it was so bad in comparison to the icicle:
Staff of the Purifier (has only 3 charges, looks really nice)
Stab des Läuterers Eggs:
The Next staff to want if you have any of the above (but the warloc specific) :
Rod of the Sleepwalker (a bit hard to get)
Rute des Schlafwandlers staff that worths more then the staff of westfall:
Cryptbone Staff
Gruftknochenstab great staff, especially for warloc (or Horde), but that one is a bit hard to get:
Staff of the Shade
Stab des Schemen warloc/Horde one that all will love:
Witching Stave
Hexenstock one just sounds funny (and still is better the Westfall, But is Horde only)
Polished Walking Staff
Polierter Wanderstab Surprise!:
Hydrocane (for the bit higher leveled)
Hydrokrückstock Thu Jun 23 15:16:39 2005

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Mondsichelstab Intellect, +7 Spirit, +7 Stamina, with around 20 dps

Strange noone has mentioned this, a very easy staff to get, with a bit better stats. Gotten by doing Anführer der Giftzähne Only for horde, and it looks a bit silly, but much easier for us to obtain.

wat quest do u get this for

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Just thought i would mention that this seems to drop often. Seems like 20% or so from the sounds of it.

Good for those of us looking for em!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

So, my lvl 40 warrior friend takes my priest to DM, and we take 3 more lower leveled warriors. So i pass on everything till this boss (Captain Greenskin) and i get the staff the first time i enter DM! So i make 'em go kill the smaller boss (Cookie) and he drops this wand Cookies Rührerrute I was pshyched how lucky i am. Now i only need the Lavishly Jeweled Ring and Corsairs Overshirt.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

31 still using it tell me where to get a better mage one...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

ive run my friend through this bloody instance SIX times! and it hasent dropped this once! DAMNIT IM SO ANGRY -rage- -anger- -etc-

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I'm using this weapon on my 18 Staves Warrior. Yeah, "there's no specialization for it" and all that. But the idea is novel and actually quite powerful if you make an effort to use the best staves avaiable.

Caster stats, sure. But 5 stamina ins't too bad. And with a fair enchant, this weapon can really shine in PvP. I've bashed my fair share of blood elf skulls with it.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

would this be a good shaman staff

yes i know i am a noob

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I hate it when i play my pally and do VC and get it, but then when i do a Deadmines run on my druid about 5 times, it doesnt drop EVEN ONCE!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Good for a twink mage,priest, or lock w/ staves

Kommentar von Allakhazam

All Level 34 Mages/Int Classes and above go lookup on the Scarlet Monastery item Illusionary Rod, got it on my first run. Better in all aspects to Emberstone Staff.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I actually prefer this staff to the staff of westfall for my priest. The stats overall I feel are better.

Think of it as trading 3 intellect for 6 spirit (I'd say 3 for 5 would be a fair tradeoff), with 5 stamina thrown in as the kicker.

More mana, more life, while mana and life don't regen during combat anyways.

You end up doing .8 less damage per second (oh well, I still get a few whacks in anyways), but most casters don't melee much. Oh, and the westfall staff sells for 5.5 more silver than this one ;)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

/love

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Shake that a$$ hun! Anyways, the staff reward from Westfall VanCleef quest is better, twice more spirit, more mana reg, less rest time between fights...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I just got it for my Undead Warlock. Its a pretty nice staff,

Ill be using daggers later on in the game when my warlock is higher, but I love the Intellect from it and Stamina is great also.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

@ redsox what hunter weapon? if u see it gives agility u get all my money -_-

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Lol,I got this from my 2nd VC run
when I was lvl 17. When I got to
18 I equipped it and I used it up
until I was lvl 23! Hehehe, I have
seen lvl 27's with this staff in PvP!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

i got this staff off Cookie in the deadmines and used it over the staff of westfall, i think they are about the same...but i used this one because it looks cooler and its a little but more rare, anyone can get the staff of westfall!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

i got the staff doing the vc quest (i forget what it's called :/), but Captain Greenskin (lvl 20 elite i think)usually drops it, not Van Cleef himself. I prefer this staff over the staff of westfall just like i prefer blackened defias armor over the tunic of westfall :D

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Good staff good bonus's and awesome damage, good for any 1. At lvl 25 though at BFD u get Rod of the Sleepwalker which i think is better

girl, u beta shake that fat ass beotch! lol

*forget the staff i want her!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

The Staff of Westfall is much better in my opinion... the killer spirit it gives is fantastic for the caster who tends to solo or grind to level, and even better is the Rod of the Sleepwalker, only a few levels up. Get the Staff of Westfall, then Rod of the Sleepwalker, then Illusionary Rod. My advice.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

This staff is WAY better than the Staff of Westfall. I'm sorry, but 6 spirit isn't gonna do that much for you in terms of regen . Emberstone Staff is much better for a caster this level: Stamina, Intellect(!), Spirit: Hax in a bag!

EMBERSTONE>WESTFALL

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I am with this staff now, too! 20level Priest, I got it just on my 18th level, and it's a lot better than westafal's staff!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

a group of friends and i ran through deadmines because we were trying to do vc. our night elf healer was doing an amazing job at healing (hardly anyone died) our lvl 21 warrior/tank was dealing a ton of damage, a lvl 17 mage was doing more damage thought possible,our lvl 24 warlock was haveing fun owning with rain of fire, leveled to lvl 25, (lol that was the only spell he would use), and my lvl 18 mage was shooting spells like crazy saveing many of the players lives. the group only died once in the eniter part until we got to the very end.thats where we got owned. after we had defeated greenskin, \he dropped this staff. everyone selected greed except the preist and me. i begged and begged for them to let me have and the mage won it... -.- then we tried to kill vc.. we were doing fine then our tank messed up and died. we all were killed cause our priest lagged and couldn't heal himself. by this time it was 1:00 in the morning where i live. i was really mad. it looked so cool! if u would like to help with vc plz add iceysilver to ur friends list thank you!

emberstone staff is a very good staff for its level. drops off the goblin captain who's at the top of the ship and wanders a bit. for my priest it never dropped, but yet on my lock it dropped first kill. got cookie's wand first kill too, hehe.

Kommentar von Taraezor

If like me you are a level 20 and you have both the Stab von Westfall and Glutsteinstab then you have a tough choice indeed. Need more mana regen? Need more Int? Healing the priority? Thinking about PvP? Levelling so need more mana or what? So.... I carry both around with me, sigh.
