This is a great staff with an unfortunatley low drop rate from Zum'rah in Zul'Farrak. When my mage got this it lasted until I was 60 and could hit up the smaller end-game instances where I eventually got https://www.wowhead.com/classic/item=23124. Not that much of a jump in +damage, though the +crit is nice. ^_^

The Staff of Jordan (SoJ) (https://www.wowhead.com/classic/item=873) is one of this staves closest competitors at the level range, but on some servers the SoJ is just too damn expensive.

If you're a Priest, SoJ might be a better option due to the +Spirit.

评论来自 chillyman

Not sure if the Soj is comparable to this staff in terms of availability but this one ain't all bad for 42+ casters in general. It has a great potential in PvP aswell, but as you can see the bonus clearly benefits resto builds. The only other staff I can see in direct comparison is this one https://www.wowhead.com/classic/item=1720 which provides nature spells with a bit of an edge. Since most casters would prefer the int buff over spirit I guess you would have to take into consideration the way you play as well (defensive vs offensive).

Btw, drop rates appear to be quite acceptable as of this moment. I'd say farm it while it's hot...

My shadow priest picked this up at level 46, and still uses it at level 56, even though I've also picked up Resurgence Rod (https://www.wowhead.com/classic/item=17743) and Spire of Hakkar (https://www.wowhead.com/classic/item=10844). You just don

This is a great staff for all casters. Mages love the int buff, Warlocks will love the stam buff, Priests love both, although no spirit. As a bonus the +spell dmg is great in PvP and PvE. Used it up to lvl 60 before I found a suitable replacement!

My mage used this staff until I got my glowing brightwood staff and my priest used this until I got my benediction. Both characters got this on their first run through ZF. However, my poor fiance ran ZF over 15 times and never once saw it drop. Has the drop rate been lowered that much? Or was I just amazingly lucky to get this staff on my 2 characters?

评论来自 13169

Best staff (that's BoP) for the 40-49 bracket.

However there is the Kindling Stave (Early boss in BRD)... that has +14crit rating, fire resist, etc... but I prefer +dmg for a lock!

Just a heads up about this staff, if it is going to drop expect the fight with Zum'rah to get a lot harder than normal.

He'll summon an extra 4 undead elites during the fight along with all the others that get summoned during the normal encounter. They come from the graves surrounding the temple he's in, and you cannot clear the graves early. They will still spawn during the encounter regardless if you have cleared the graves around the temple first. Most groups are going to have the cloth wearers closest to the temple entrance, if that happens they're going to get obliterated by the extra spawns. Just make sure everyone is inside the temple, and that the tank holds him closest to the door to ensure they're going to get aggro from any extras that run up. If I recall, the extras actually run up to the steps so they're going to aggro no matter how far you're inside.

I've ran the instance around 30-40 times between all my characters, and eventually noticed the change in difficulty. It's only dropped a handful of times, however since I noticed the extreme change in difficulty I've managed to successfully call when the staff is going to drop every time that it did.

Good luck getting the staff. :)

Drops off Witchdoctor in ZF.

评论来自 Thottbot

I'll just assume it comes from Witch Doctor Zum'rah from Zul'Farrak...

评论来自 Thottbot

Confirmed, this is one of the new loot items from the Witch Doctor in Zul'Farrak, dropped for us last night.

He also drops awesome caster gloves now too.

评论来自 Thottbot

Good effect boost,but a bit low on the stats imho
I'm staying with the Illusionary Rod for the time being (well I should,I ran the library 5 times for it ;)

For the dude that wouldn't let mages hear the end of it.....:

WHY?
This is superb with arcane missiles.

I would use this with my lock, its stats would stack well with the stam/int of Robes of the Lich

Quote: "Good effect boost,but a bit low on the stats imho...I'm staying with the Illusionary Rod for the time being (well I should,I ran the library 5 times for it ;) "

I can't be bothered going through all the number crunching, but just to let you know this staff is FAR superior to the Illusionary Rod. DO NOT pass this up to stick with your Rod. To put it in perspective, this staff is arguably BETTER than the Staff of Jordan since it has +10 Sta instead of +10 Spi, which is a huge improvement. Jordan gives an extra 5 damage, but that's not enough to mitigate the superior Sta boost this staff gives, imo at least. In fact the only thing that might give SoJ the edge is that you can use it at level 35.

And for the record, I do not think those drop rates are correct. I've killed the Witch doctor about 35 times all told (been through ZF a ton with my first 2 (non-caster) chars, plus my current level 48 Mage, PLUS I helped a Mage friend farm for this staff by resetting the instance over and over for an entire weekend. I've seen it drop ONCE. And it was with my Mage, and I won it. Yeesssss.

评论来自 Thottbot

If you've run any high level instances, often items that are suitable for any caster class will have the tooltip "Increases damage AND healing..."

It's just because the developers are lazy, not that they intend it for use only by a healing class. I wouldn't be upset if I had to roll against a mage for this (I'm a priest).

Additionally, many people are saying "it's not worth getting just +21... that's insignificant". Understand that +damage items are the only way to increase the power of our spells, and +21 is very decent as far as +damage for this level goes. Stack a few of these together (I have +shadow damage goggles, and three other +damage items) and you can get a surprising increase in DPS. Try it out.

评论来自 Thottbot

The extra healing/damage makes this far superior to the Illusionary Rod.

评论来自 Thottbot

I've leveled from 43 to 46 almost entirely in ZF, and i still hav'nt won this cane >_<
Seen it drop twice out of the 7/8 times ive been there. Killing Allis helps remove the frustration of losing the staff again/getting a crappy green drop off the guy, then i jst go right back in there an try again =P. I have made 55g and gone up 3 1/2 lvls in 3 days so its not all bad =)

评论来自 Thottbot

Whoever is a caster and rolls better it's their staff.

Unless a melee class roles, just be quiet and run the instance again.

评论来自 Thottbot

I FINALLY got this !@#$% today on my like 20:th ZF run.
It dropped the first two times i went to ZF, but i didnt win the rolls, but i though 'well, this droprate seems fine!'
hehe, i didnt know that it would take me weeks before i saw that staff again... >_>
It hurt my pride to use that illusionary rod til lvl 51 XD

评论来自 Thottbot

A lot of people keep commenting on having to make X number of runs and never seeing it drop. Apparently they're just not good at math or something...The drop rate is 6.5% according to Thottbot, as you can see above. That means that, on average, you'll see the staff drop once every 15 runs. Could be more, could be less, but you'll be a lot happier if you expect the former and get the latter instead of vice versa.

Patience, young grasshoppers...

评论来自 Thottbot

Anyways, i've been reading the comments from over a year ago and i've seen a few people say locks need spirit over stamina. two words...LIFE TAP. locks need alot of stamina(more than intellect as a matter of fact) because if they run out of mana they can just lifetap...and hp beats mana anyday, who doesn't wanna live longer?

评论来自 Thottbot

This dropped for my group today, 2 warriors, 1 pally, 1 hunter, and me(priest). I rolled need bcuz i'm currently using a crappy green staff, the F*&$%ng hunter rolled need also and of course won! I said "wtf are you doing?", his reply was that it was something that he could use, but would probably sell to vendor for the money. Why is there always one $%^&*!@ in a group that ruins instance runs.

评论来自 Allakhazam

ya, ran ZF from lvl 35 to lvl 39 on my fire mage with a lvl 70 hunter friend. this dropped 1st run, the gloves 2nd run, then mojo on 4th and i also have both the 'thraze weapons. took 11 runs all together in completion and about 15 hrs of running. gooooooood times

btw kathaheas, you are the man!

Dreanor Buddies FTW

Who cares about the graphics, this staff is wicked. I just got it by chance last night, the priest in the group rolled a 1, I rolled 48.. lol, lucky.

Looks pretty cool with Demonslaying enchanted.

Got it on my first run with a 60 warlock, 40something warrior, rogue, hunter plus me, a 44 druid. I was the only caster except for the lock(who already had Soul Harvester), so I got it. Wee.

评论来自 Allakhazam

I dunno, I've got Illusionary Rod with +30 spell damage enchant which kinda rocks this one. It's pretty plain but I wouldn't mind gettin' it.

It dropped in ZF last night after running through like 20 times and the lil' priest beat me on the roll. <sigh> Looks like I'll be using my Illusionary Rod with spell damage for awhile longer. It's still a good staff but it's pretty common, which is the only problem IMO.

评论来自 Allakhazam

Hehe got this on my first run of ZF ever, so happy =D
got it at lvl 42 druid =) guild run

评论来自 Allakhazam

12% Drop rate my hairy....rear. I've run ZF since my priest was 44 and he's now 49 1/2. I've maybe had one or two failed mara runs and one part of an ST run, no grinding or questing. So yea, ran it alot.

Staff has never dropped. Consider yourselves lucky that ya found it on the first few runs

评论来自 Allakhazam

10% isnt a RARE drop, but anyways awsome staff. and preists are a must for boss. to shackle zombies. and always before you go in instance make sure if the staff drops it is yours.

评论来自 Allakhazam

killed this guy 3 times, staff dropped every time, but by the third time i realized "hey, this is better than prophetic cane+hypno dagger"

so i rolled need and won cuz i was the only caster.

Anyhoo, this guy summon2-3 of those zombies maximum.
The only thing they do thats really bad is interrupt spellcasting. if you don thave enough dps to kill this guy before he summons too many zombies, you prolly have noob sin ur group.

ALSO, if your a shadow priest-- Silence works wonders when he attempts to summon

评论来自 Allakhazam

got this 2 days ago and replace it with my illu. and disenc. my illu. then felt bad if i do something wrong.
but after using it i m sure that this is better then illu. and i asure that i did the right thing. i dont see much in my server so im not feeling like twins with other casters. just so dull looking but just that...

Been grinding it yesterday with 60 rogue 55 mage and 58 priest, 55 mage wanted it too (I'm 46 warlock) we also had a 48 warrior
We just unequiped all, SS priest and went through instance like hell we all died when we came to boss (only rogue survived with vanish :P) rezzed killed him, didn't get it. Ran out reset and killed whole instance while we waited for ss cd. Did about 6 of those runs in 2.5 hour got 2 staffs 3 gloves and some random green worthless piece of crap, just find a couple of guildies who wanna do a quick run with you and get it easy

评论来自 Allakhazam

I've had terrible luck getting this staff to drop, but will persist as it is undoubtedly the best staff for a mage until lvl58 when the Rod of the Ogre Magi becomes available.

If you're a frost mage, slap the new Winter's Might enchant on here for extra damage.

All casters should be running ZF to get this staff. If your still using Staff of Illusion when you get up to 45 or so GET THIS. Probobly better for Mage's and Warlocks though because of the lack of Spirit but Priests will still do well with it.

评论来自 Allakhazam

12 kills and still counting, havent seen staff drop once.

dropped gloves 9 times
dropped !@#$ green tradeable item 3 times.(pretty sad for hardest boss in zone to have tradeables instead of 100%chance of blue on loot)

getting this staff isnt easy, its his very rare drop, and you will likely have to roll against every priest, mage, warlock and druids on top of that. i have yet to even see it drop, winning the roll is going to be another story. if you got this, you are very lucky. its decent staff straight to 60.(outdated at 60 by raid instance drops, but still not horrible to have, alot of 60s still have it on, or Inventor's Focal Sword)

very great staff if you can get it, but i might end up resorting to Inventor's Focal Sword from maruadon with +1% spell crit on it, common drop from that boss, and druids/priests can't use swords, so rolling would be only between mages/warlocks or greedy paladins.

the boss that drops this is the hardest in the zone, simply because of all the adds he summons. he summons a set number as his hp drops, and if dead hero is up, he will summon him+2 adds. safest way to do it is to clear all the graves, but clearing some and not all is pointless, as he will use whatever you leave him. you also don't know if dead hero is up, dead hero is random spawn in one of the graves, named mob that comes with 2 more adds. dead hero is tough, and immune to shadow but drops green tradeable. my style of taking down priest is just to throw all dmg to him, ignore adds, loot quickly, then revive after, or have priest/paladin revive with soulstone. suicidal, but it just saves time and ussualy works every time. if you want to clear all the graves you're looking at another 15mins of wasted time. just remember to loot very quickly, blizzard never fixed his body, his body goes poof in like 1min. if you wiped killing him and didn't loot, its very likely drop will rott before you get back. this could be because he has green on him instead of a blue though, but i wouldnt know.

whats more sad is that im going to have to roll against the people on their first run whenever it does drop, us people that do 2 dozen runs for something shouldnt have to roll against newcomers to the zone.... joy joy... thanks again blizz..

I finally won this after many tries with my druid. It dropped the first time I visited ZF and I lost the roll to a priest. After many more runs it finally dropped again and I won the roll against a priest. At level 55 I still think this is my best staff and will probably use it for a good while. Just need to slap on a high lvl enchant to make the ball glow.

I'd definitely recommend clearing the graves before you challenge the boss unless you want a boatload of his zombie friends to wake up.

Oh yeah the Jumanza Grips drop a lot more often than this staff. Awesome hands

评论来自 Allakhazam

I was running Z'F at lvl 40 with a lvl 45 Warrior, a 43 Hunter & a 70 Rogue,
just doing it for XP really & this staff dropped! I had forgotten all about it,
but they let me "Need" it & I was so happy, then we ran it again & Jumanza Grips
dropped, since nobody else in my party wears "paper" I got them for sure!

Now all I gotta get is lvl 42 & I'm set for quite a while ^^

(yeah, we had no healer.... it was interesting!
I accidently caused a wipe & the Rogue said that
was the first time he had died in 2 weeks rofl)

im really just not sure about this item, i mean illusionary rod is +15int +7stam +10spir plus a +30 spell dmg enchant really isnt better then this? i mean does that +21 reallyy do that much to make it worth it?

评论来自 Allakhazam

I have submitted the screenshot of it (that's me in purple, above). It's great for a healer who is intel/ +heal spec'd like my druid.

NOTE to get it, the safest way is to open each of the grave mounds around the Witch Doctor before you engage him. Otherwise, when you engage boss he will sometimes (mostly?) raise those undead and pwn them on you :)

The clearing of graves takes ages. The Witch D himself is easy IF he can't raise mobs to pwn you.

A 60 priest in my guild is using the Illusionary Rod from SM, so I decided after AQ20 to help him farm for this since it'd be really quick and easy and would probably pay for my repair bills. Ran it 3 times before I ran out of time had to go, got some crappy BoE greens. Gonna farm some more tomorrow before MC.

评论来自 Allakhazam

up till now (48), i've lost on pretty much every roll. I've attempted ZF twice with PuGs and we wiped both times. But first time won the gloves. Second time won the staff.

Strategy we used both times was to just put everyone on the boss and worry about the adds after he goes down.

woot!

评论来自 Allakhazam

Well, I play a 53 gnome mage on Aggamagan. I have had the WORST luck ever getting this thing. I began running ZF at level 41 with the help of a level 60 friend. I ran this god-forsaken instance 47 (yes, not an overstatement, actually 47) times before I saw this drop once. By that point, I was 50 and had already finished ST, Mara, and the first bit of BRD. Naturally, I needed and was lucky to be the only caster of my level who wanted it. Won the roll, and I must say, I adore this staff. I really dont mind the looks that much...its not really bothersome. It could be cooler, sure, but why worry about appearance when the stats are this good? Yea, if you can get it, blade of eternal darkness is better for locks and mages, and, hell, maybe the mage sword that drops in BRD is as well, but, quite frankly, this staff will pretty much keep you covered to 60. Better weapons exist, and if you can find them, jump on it. However, if you are able to get Zum'Rah to drop his cane, do know that you are getting a pretty powerful caster weapon.
