Got this from a friend when my shaman turned 60. Gives a nice boost to Flame & Frost Shock and provides very good melee dps as well :)

Kommentar von Morrik

Believe it or not, this dropped off one of the Crocs on Hakkar's Island in ZG. Don't forget to loot everything within the instance! You may miss something like this! We almost did!

This staff goes for about 400 to 600g on Runetotem. I've heard that it can go anywhere from 1000 to 1200g on opening day servers.

I would not recommend this staff for a mage at least. https://www.wowhead.com/classic/item=18534 is a much better choice as well as several others. The resistances are basically useless and the +34 fire/frost damage isn't worth the hundreds of gold spent.

Kommentar von schizophrenia

Far more useful as a resist staff then as a main equip staff

Kommentar von 7187

I prefer Amberseal Keeper for a resist staff.

Kommentar von 7203

This staff is not worth more than 200G in my opinion. The +dmg is nice but not enough to warrant that much gold. It lacks viable stats for endgame and that is what staves are known for, sacrificng +dmg/crit/spell penetration for extra stats.

If it is less than 200G or you get one on a drop then equip it by all means but otherwise don't spend you gold on it.

Kommentar von Asher

Sell it and reap the profits of the moron who bought it. It's much easier to put this towards an enchant or your epic mount.

Kommentar von 6934

You couldn't pay me to use this staff :). Just get witchblade + AV offhand and you're in far better shape. Can't believe people actually buy this thing >.<

Kommentar von 7601

This staff can prove to be unbelievably useful for any frost mage in a number of endgame encounters (Rag, Vael, the BWL dragons) as a part of your fire resistance gear. You'll have a hard time finding yourself any gear with the combination of both fire resistance and +frost damage. Very good tool to have in your bag.

I got this staff in Winterspring off on of the elites in the southern end of the zone. I still have it at 62. Enchanted with +30 Spell Power makes it better than anything I've had drop in TBC so far.

Kommentar von 48516

I don't think there is anything better than this staff untill "batlle mage's batton"
it's definitelly worth enchanting +30 or +40 spell damage

Kommentar von Thottbot

dropped in scholo today in ras's room. one of the mages

Kommentar von Thottbot

Euhm....
has anyone claiming this isn't a mage staff ever played a mage or even bothered to look at their talent trees?
just for the record:
-arcane
-FIRE
-FROST

this is an almost absurd dmg boost for two of the main schools
stuff like scorch,like the other guy said and fireblast are greatly enhanced by this staff
I'm not saying this isn't a shammie-staff,but it's definately a mage staff!

I would also agree with this being a rogue staff as this must be great for backstabs =)

anyway:hunters STFU! get yourselves a nice gun, a whip for your pets and some perspective on weapon abilities

nb:thott fora tend to make me hatefull towards hunters ;)

Kommentar von Thottbot

Ofcause it suxx for a warlock. It's like I gonna diss a warlock armorset because it can heal my (non)pet and only gives + for shadowspells or something. Please grow up and think OUT of your box.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Had this drop off a Orc in UBRs right before drak tonight, i rolled a freakin 7 lol, but our looting rules prevented the other mage from rolling since he had already rolled need on several items. yay for me!

although a priest tried rolling against me... ya thank goodness the group leader didnt let that fly

anyway great staff

Kommentar von Thottbot

Dropped from one of the elites not 5 minutes into UBRS last night.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I will punch you in the ovaries if you think this sucks...It's all about +dmg, I could care less if it has no stat buffs, With my gear, and tihs staff, I have an added 300-400 extra dmg, Still suck? well, let me turn on my AP, ToEP, get the WSG buff and pyroblast you for a good 3000+ dmg...GG's

Kommentar von Thottbot

Being a Mage and having this staff, I can clear up the confusion about why people would want this when it has "no stats". First off, it most certainly does have stats. +20 Frost and Fire Resistance at once are gonna be some of the best resistances you'll ever get. Also, the plus damage is excellent for mages of all specs. If you do more damage you need less mana (in theory), therefore intellect is not needed. Stamina sucks ass for cloth wearers, you will die the same if you have 20 more HP or not. The only thing left is spirit which can easily be replaced with other gear and many mages question adding to their stat increase line-up. +36 Fire/Frost Damage is a big deal, people. Not to mention I just got the Spell Damage +30 enchant on mine a few days ago. That's +66 Fire/Frost Damage off of ONE weapon. The only other weapon a Mage should even think about having is the Magesword or Dominance, and in a Raid pary of 40 with at least 7 or 8 Mages and not even a for sure drop rate, you do the math on how long it'll take you to get a better weapon. Not for a while. Excellent Staff, all Mages should have one, no matter what the spec.

1. You are a NOOB if you do not like this staff.
2. Read comment above.

In all seriousness, this staff is great for Ragnaros, Onyxia, Molten Core, Blackwing Lair, and any other high end instance where you will need resist gear. Currently, fire is the biggest element that is focused on in this game. Who knows if they will ever make a new end-game frost instance...

Stats give great resist to TWO (not one, but yes TWO) often used elements and also adds to those TWO (not one, again yes TWO) elements for mages. NO OTHER STAFF HAS THIS MUCH RESIST FOR FIRE/FROST, PERIOD!

It is in fact a mage staff. If you roll on this and you are not a mage you are a greedy bastard but whatever if you can equip then it's your stankin' choice.

ANYWAY, the point is that you need tons of fire resist to beat bosses like Ragnaros. Take ANY 40 man raid there w/o fire resist gear and I bet you they will get SPANKED like you did when you were a baby.

People say Fire Resist gear is overrated. Well...you are a moron if you think that. Your 500+ stamina gear doesn't make an effin' difference when Ragnaros one-shots you for 6k (or two-shots you for 3k each).

It is NOT the best staff in the game, but it is an epic staff and you'd be an idiot not to want it, even just to have in case of the need for resist/element dmg gear. So whether you like it or not, this staff is useful and just because it may not be the best staff in the game or have stats like you want, it effin' pwns in its OWN WAY anyway.

Agreed? Yes, you know you /agree. Say something else stupid so you can be proved wrong...MORONS! =)

This staff is great ! Dropped today from a diseased ghoul in Scholomance !

Kommentar von Thottbot

Staff is nice, for Rag and Vael eg.

For the rest just use mageblade and offhand.

Resists aren't worth anything unless you are building a X resistence set.Having 20 Fire Resist means that Mage that just fire nuked you for 1500 really only did 1480 damage.Big deal,like I said,unless you are getting 100's worth of resist then you are pretty much wasting your time and sacrificing important stats in the process.

^- that's bull!@#$ actually...

Kommentar von Thottbot

I have the +30 Spell Damage enchant on it. +66 ice/fire damage doesn't melt faces...it vaporizes them. With AB up, the rest of my gear puts me well over 6k mana, so the INT is no great loss.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Of course trindlehaven staff is better. When you are soloing. The whole point in this staff is to give the weilder a nice fire resistance in high end game instances like MC or BWL. If you are using this staff while you are soloing thats another issue. And the +fire and +frost damage is meant to reach two different kinds of mages. Not one mage specced for fire and frost dumbass.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Yah Mine dropped off of a battlemage in Strat Sc I think :P

I love this staff so much, I put +30 spell damage on it just because I think it'll have a better and more often effect on stuff as opposed to the bonus intellect and crits. Still, it oughta be about the same so pick yur fav color: purple or yellow lol.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Yeah.. this is a nice stick, no doublt. But....

take a quick look at this staff
Staff of Balzaphon

Say we do not rate resitances so high for a moment (as you always will outside of MC/ONY)

This staff has alomost the same damage bonus, but for all schools (and healing :P ).
It has 1% crit
It even has some nice stats on top of that
It is farmable (but unfortunately only until the scourge invasion ends)
It looks way cooler with that bad black glow :)

I'd even say that this level 55 blue staff is superiour to this level 56 epic one. Even if you take the FR into consideration, the stats and crit make more than up for that (except, of course, you are a hardcore fireresist collector).

Kommentar von Thottbot

Buyout for 250G. normal price I think. I am frost mage and wonder how ench is better - +30 spell dmg or +22 int? I will choose +30 spell dmg maybe :-)

Kommentar von Thottbot

On the trade channel in my server (horde on dark iron)people repeatedly link this item saying strange things such as "I'd roll elemental mage staff in a taco" or "elemental mage staff has hair in places you dont want to know". It seems as if there is some sort of inside joke surrounding this item. Any ideas about what this is?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

hey thats not the 2nd best staff in the game.. lol It doesn't give any INT... So I will keep my "Glowing Bightwood Staf +9 int".

Kommentar von Allakhazam

It's nowhere near the second best staff in the game, as one of the posters claimed, *unless* you're a mage (or perhaps a warlock). For priests and druids, many staves are better than this as they give INT, STA and SPI; all of which are more important than DPS, resistances or +effects on spells in schools you won't even have. This staff is uber for a mage, however. Especially for high-end dungeons or PVP...

If you're a priest or a druid, try getting the Argent Crusader as your primary weapon instead. It's a quest reward, so only skill is required to get it, not luck or gold. It has very decent amounts of INT, STA and SPI, good all-round endgame weapon for casters.

If you're a mage and can't afford this staff, shoot for the Rod of the Ogre Magi which drops in the tribute chest in DM North, a truly excellent blue staff for mages with good stats, crit chance and spell damage boost.

My mage bought the Elemental Mage Staff but I am lucky enough to have looted a Glowing Brightwood Staff for my druid, which is far far better than this one for healing purposes, even with its slightly lower DPS. Of course, the GBS is the best general-purpose BoE caster weapon in the game (i.e. excluding BoP drops from Molten Core, Scholomance, etc.).

My frost mage would definetly use it with a decent INT enchant...

Dropped in UBRS last night, only mage in the party had it passed to him naturally. Grats Gore! Shame about how lame it looks. Needs new graphic!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

From what I have always heard most all epic drops like this come from a random world MOB of a comparable level.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I don understand why as a 56+ mage need +32 in spell dmg when the spell dealing 500+ dmg?

Can anyone explain to me?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I am currently bidding on this staff - wish me luck!

Mine dropped in UBRS off a trash mob. Great for my fire spec'd mage, as elbrop said. Well worth buying.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

i got one off a Woodsman in Eastern Plaguelands, beat another shaman on the roll 50 to 62 ;), anyone know what this thing is worth?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

We found one in Stratholme, a warrior ninja looted it. Then he wanted to give it to our warlock, we had a mage. Needless to say, everyone was pissed. In the end the mage got it. I don't think this staff is all that great safe for the resists. If I was a mage I'd pick a Glowing Brightwood Staff any day. (I as a druid have that staff though). But there are better blue allternatives aswell, simply for int/spi/stam.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

it dropped in Stratholme from a necromance, (im a mage) and I was not permitted to need roll it so i crolled it 99 :D ^^

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Greed roll in UBRS, I won.

Equipped it.

60 Shaman.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

hot monkey love, how do you get this thing?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

This droped in ubrs the other night. but its a random world drop

Kommentar von Allakhazam

The 32 damage on its own is not too much, but when its combined with a mixture of other stat gear and damage gear it can make a signifigant impact. With my frost mage I hit on average right now for 650 damage per ice bolt and 1300-1320 on crits. Over the standard average of 450 thats a huge jump. :)

The normal price for this staff on my server is about 700G. I ended up paying 800G to get mine because it was cross-faction and I had to cover the AH fee.

This is a rare world drop, it seems to drop the most in instances, but level 59-60 things also drop it from time to time. I emphasize RARE.

After the new patch also this will be near 40-48 damage is my guess. :)

I bought this for 280g on gadgetzan AH.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I have the same question as redbean, is adding +32 to frost and fire spells good?

Blizz does more n' a thousand and this item only adds 32... doesn't seem that great

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Mine dropped tonight in Deadwind pass off a purple ghost.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Stone Guardian drop. Wondering if I want to sell it to get closer to my epic mount, or keep it as a Shaman. The DPS is insane, and +fire, and +frost is used. (if only a little from shocks) That or give it to a guildie ;)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

^^ PERIOD

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I got this today on my very first AV and looted body and no need for roll. i heard few "lucky bastard" comments =) Trying to sell it 550/620g

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I am so lucky. Logged on Sunday afternoon, and three people were selling this at same time. One guy was try to sell at 500g first part of the day, I offered 400, he said no. Went on a run, came back to IF, and two more people were selling. Fortunately one of them said he put his in AH for 250g, no buy out. Figured I was going to spend 400, might as well bid 250. 2 hours later, it showed up in my mail box. Upgrade from Rod of the Ogre Magi. I needed fire resist so bad, and now I have frost and fire. Have only done one run with it so far, and my frostbolts are hitting a little higher now, and didn't notice many issue's with mana. Enjoy!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

won't sell for over about 120 on Frostwolf server =/

Kommentar von Allakhazam

This dropped in the first tower in baron side strat. Only 2 mages in group, me one of them, Only mages allowed to roll, other mage rolled a 53, I rolled a 65 ^^. They didn't say i had to equip it, but i felt i would be cheating the other mage if i did. I love this staff, I put a +30 spell dmg enchant, very happy mage^^

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Went on first instance run since they dropped UBRS cap to 10 people. This baby dropped on one of the mobs by Anvilcrack. Everyone rolled greed and I rolled a 99. So happy! Sold it 3 hours later for 650g.
They werent kidding about upping the loot tables in UBRS thats for sure!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

AH? probably drops in some instance... though it would be nice if they would say lol

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Now I know this seems inconsequential but if the percentages up there have 0.00% that means it won't drop off those mobs right? If so then why do they have the mobs listed? Thanks

Dropped last night off the named spider boss in Baron side Stratholme. A druid beat me, the only mage in the raid, on the roll. It may not be the best staff in-game, but I still feel the urge to go weep. =(

Kommentar von Allakhazam

This guy bought it on the AH on accident and i offered him 30G on mal"ganis server, lucky me i have been told to sell it so will for about 150-200

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Should only be used by mages...
Even though shamans and warlocks also could have use of the frost/fire..

Kommentar von Allakhazam

great staff, FR is wonderful for PVE, frost resistance is good for PVP against mages, and the +dmg is great for a mage.. the only reason that a mage wouldnt pay heavy gold for it is if he spammed arcane missiles all day

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Please correct me if Im wrong, as I am a shaman, but isn't this a pretty ^&*!ty wep. for an epic? I mean, don't most mages spec frost/arc or fire/arc, not frost/fire? So who would want + to both fire and ice spells?

Please, correct me if Im wrong

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Dropped off a Blackhand Iron Guard in the room before Drakkisath. Raidleader decided it was random, don't think it was fair, but I didn't want to whine after rolling a 97. Sold it for 360g later.
Paid for my heartseeker AND made a little gnome happy :)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Dropped today at Scholomance, rolled 94 and then hunter rolled 95 for it... I could kill someone now :D

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Dropped off of a dragon guard from the last group to clear in the General's room in UBRS.

PST "marky", undead priest on Dragonmaw, if you wanna buy it. Otherwise i'll put it in the AH on saturday.

believe it or not but today dropped from instance stratholme undead and one hour later in UBRS before general.I rolled 12 and 92 and took one home :)

Graphic is borrowed from Soulkeeper. Please Blizz, give this a unique graphic.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Okay I have a briarwood reed as a trinket that gives me almost as much to my spell damage as this. Which in reality is not alot fo spell damage. You are the most retarded mage that ever lived if you actually payed money for this staff, or have it armed. The amount of mana, hp, and mana regen your lose for some pathetic resistance bonus is just insane. If you have the extra gold to buy this for show. You have entirely to much gold to spend (smile).

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I paid 330g for it at the AH, i already had the Glowing Brightwood Staff with +22 intellect. I was really curious about the +30 spell dmg enchant. With the +fire/frost damage on the Elemental Mage Staff and the +30 spell dmg I was hoping for great results. And god damn! I went from critting 800 frost bolt to a whopping 1050. It is a big difference, i have much less mana now (about 1000, cause i also changed a necklace to a +16 spell dmg necklace), but its still worth it, i cause much more damage than before, so i guess it compensates. Will go for more +dmg gear from now on... BTW, Im level 57...

Edited, Tue Mar 14 02:48:59 2006

Kommentar von Allakhazam

One sweet staff for my fire spec'd mage. Spent 450g on this and never regretted it. Bonus is it looks nice too.

Rare enough, you won't feel so cookie cutter (compaired to the ever boring Brightwood staff).

Great for fire specs and hey, if you ever go frost, its just as nice.

Now if I could just find a chanter to add +30spell damage...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

dropped in ubrs off a fire tongue , i rolled 98 and won it . woooot ! its awesome ... 2nd best staff in the game(1st is the darkmaster gandling's one imo).

Goes for about 300g to 399g on Terenas server (Alliance AH)

I saw this drop at Stratholme by a Necromancer, my mage Guildie won it, good for her =)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Just looted this off The Beast in UBRS. Typical mage staff it was a 1 on 1 with another mage, i won the roll by 20 or so.
This little cutie will keep me safe in those scary MC runs. :)
BTW for those party members that are STILL convinced i ninja'd it: We all agreed on it being a mage staff, and i rolled with the other mage, won, took it, and equipped it after the raid. (no i do NOT put up a parade/show when we are fighting, told you to wait after boss). I would never sell this beauty! not for 1000g. Gold cant buy the laws of chance on another drop :)
Anyway here it is as proof i didnt sold it + to show off :P

tons of scholo runs farming for this we beat gandling hoping in false belief that my headmaster's charge would drop
it didnt but this did, i used this as part of my FR gear lol, but wat the hell i like my weapons better but this is still really good

Kommentar von Allakhazam

The Fire Resistance alone makes it worth a bomb.

Kommentar von kiksfun

I decide to buy this "mage" staff for my enh shaman for like 200g on AH. Weapon dmg is really big, expecialy for molten core where 2h weapons are quite rare and have a big competition. Weapon speed 3.3 is also realy good for enh shaman. Whats more we have extra 36 spell damage for our shocks and fire totems, also 20 fire resistance is a huge dmg reduction for almost every boss and trash in MC & Onyxia.

I do not regret a single gold for this stuff. With Crusader enchant it hits so heavy with juicy windfury crits.
I honestly recommend it for every enh shaman that want to start raiding and have some extra gold.

BTW: This staff have cool visual effect that sheds light on the textures around you :)

Kommentar von ameenova

The price for this staff will go high when Naxxramas patch get released on classic for Sapphiron fight because 20 frost resistance is very high on a weapon for mages also the 36 fire spell damage for fire mages is decent
right now it always been sold between 200g-300g on our server

so I bought two and kept it at my bank just in case
