I have this staff on my warlock - but if you're in a guild that can down Ossirian and/or Nefarian I would suggest waiting out for the Staff of the Ruins or Shadowflame staff. I waited ages for Ossirian to drop the Staff of the Ruins but he never did so I finally grabbed this (my guild is still working on Nef).

Also, if you're a druid, you can get this pretty cheap as Staff of Dominance (https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=18842) pretty sucks, even enchanted. Or you can go for the Mace + Offhand alternative, meaning Jin'do's Hexxer (https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=19890) and maybe Lei of Lilies (https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=1315) or the AV Exalted reward, Lei of the Lifegiver (https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=19312)

There aren't many options here, I've upgraded this to Staff of Rampant Growth (https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=20581) but if you're not doing outdoor dragons, you don't have items galore to pick from.

Unless of course, you can get your hands on a Blessed Qiraji Augur staff from AQ40 (https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=21275)

ugly looking staff but bloody nice stats.

as a mage I see it pointless putting +22 int. the amount of times i accually run out of mana is pretty rare with things such as evocation and mana rubys. if u want extra mana buy mana pots.

no for a mage this staff needs +30 spell power for sure.

Now that the new Blackwing Lair epics are out, please do not:

1. Say this is a hunter weapon (even if you're joking, people actually believe you).
2. Argue that only your class should 'roll' on it (as if loot is actually /rolled on for these raids).
3. Call shamans noobs.
4. Call paladins noobs.

Don't turn the comments into the a deluge of stupidity like all the other MC epics.
If you have any comments about the boss, viable enchants, or droprates by all means share the wealth.

first post here, im a 60 shadow priest, my guild is up to Nef (24%)
I know...start complaining about shadow's in 40 mans well STFU, us BWL shadows are quite invaluable only 2 of us per raid (holy preists are needed more no questions asked) and any raiding 'lock can and will say that shadows help an insane amount (and not just for the +15% shadow dmg debuff on mobs)

basicly i use this staff and WoA, I still have Bene/Ana somewhere, in the bank...i think... but i only used that untill i got WoA (all the druids got it first which is fine in my books), im allowed to use VE (ty for 1.10, imp VE is awesum) and this lightens the load on all of the healers.

i have this with a +22 Int enchant and i blast away as this provides me with an insanely large mana pool which lasts quite a while. (imp VE healing 30% of all dmg, dont forget)

when i do run out of mana i switch to Will of arlokk with which i have a +20 spirit enchant and i regen for a while, when mana is back up to full, i switch back to SWFS and off we go again.

If we get into a tight situation then sometimes i do jump out of shadow and spot heal. i have almost finished getting the mats for the Qiraji Augur Staff (https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=52896) whith which ill put a +55 healing on.

in the end, any caster can use it, its a very good staff. not one class can claim it exclusivly as their own if blizzard had wanted only mages or 'locks to use it then they would have put "<Class> Only" its all up to your raid leader and how much DKP people have.

Oh and for the record, im not going to state my name, guild, server...just because i dont want people PST-ing me ingame, i get enough of that already

Comentado por Thottbot

Got mine the other day, went the +22 Int route. (my aq lock dagger has +30spell power)

I use this while in PvE for the sheer benefit of the stats. my dagger is still better for PvP though.

Comentado por Thottbot

While this item is good for all damage caster classes, I feel it complements balance druids the most.

Shadow Wing Focus Staff
Binds when picked up
Two-Hand Staff
142 - 237 Damage Speed 3.20
(59.3 damage per second)
+22 Stamina
+40 Intellect
+17 Spirit
Durability 120 / 120
Requires Level 60
Equip: Increases damage and healing done by magical spells and effects by up to 56.

Druids, compared to mages and warlocks, have a very shallow mana pool to draw from (hence a lot of mana/5sec showing up on end-game druid items). In addition, balance druids have the Moonglow talent which reduces casting costs, making large mana gains even more vital (as compared with feral who have a huge mana pool to begin with due to Heart of the Wild). The combination of 40 intellect plus respectable damage simply goes to more use with balance druids that it would to other casters. So if the loot discussion boils down to the decision between a mage/lock and a balance druid, please consider this.

Corn on a stick.

Comentado por Allakhazam

Wow! look at that! The first staff out of BWL is barely an upgrade to the SoD or mageblade/off-hand combo out of MC. Casters lose again, whoda thunk it. Looking like i'm saving DKP yet AGAIN for the next zone, or maybe nefarion....

Comentado por Allakhazam

Clearly a Druid staff...

my talents are in Balance, this staff is perfect for me !

Comentado por Allakhazam

Ok guys, let me just clear up my opinion here.
THE MOST USED STATS FOR CLASSES THAT SHOULD USE THIS
mage- int
lock- stam
priest-spirit
not sure about shammy and druid
Ok folks... First lets consider jsut the +56 damage right now.
frostbolt/ shadowbolt/ shaman/druid spell damage– about 500 heal damage- about 2500 (for priests) 500 +56 would be about 500 + 10% 2500 + 56 would be about 2500 + 2%. Whats more? 2 or 10?
theres your answer folks.
Imo priority: 1) mage/lock 2)shaman/druid 3) priest 4) (Id rather it go to warriors more than hunters LOL)
Oh, and just so you know, im a troll priest too.
Ok now for stats: 40 int 22 stam 17 spirit.
again, for stats: 1) mage 2) lock 3) priest (Shamman and druid, not sure, dont know much about them)
so there you have it folks. Im a priest, and as MUCH as id like this staff, i know it benefits other classes more than me. Besides, benediction is LOTS better.

Comentado por Allakhazam

it's stats are even better with +22 intellect enchant:D:D:D i want it.^^:P well im going to get it when im lvl 60:P:D btw its a staff for all casters

I'm a mage in a raiding guild and this staff is mainly warlock (maybe druid), because both frost and fire mages shine with the criticals (frost %100, fire +40 crit hit bonus). So I really think they would do a much better with the Staff of Shadow Flame. Or even a SoD. Only mages that use purely arcane should spend Dkp on this.

Plus: Non-crit caster weapons always remind me of druids... But of course druids have their healing only staves with 1.8 patch, a drop from the new world bosses.

Comentado por Allakhazam

The drop rate on this has me crying irl.

Comentado por Allakhazam

Awesome staff! Enchant it with +22 Int and its insane!

Comentado por Allakhazam

I am a mage, I'll stick with the SoD over this. Give it to a priest or druid, they would make better use of it.

Comentado por Allakhazam

im a druid, i got it, dont cry

Comentado por Allakhazam

This is the best Druid healing staff in the game. :>

Mages have stuff with more +damage, same with warlocks. Priests can get more regen elsewhere, same with Shamans. Druids on the other hand are stuck with the hand of nefarius - or this one. :>

Comentado por Allakhazam

Since SoSF is still going for a stupid amount of DKP i picked up one of these cheap since all the priests/druids have the rampant growth staff. With a spellpower enchant it dones just fine, and i got a little better mana pool, which i need TBO. i go through mana like a maniac.

I care more about the 56 dmg than other stats, they are just a nice bonus :D

Comentado por Allakhazam

Honestly, as a Druid, I would LOVE to have this staff. But the way looting goes, it should go to people that haven't already gotten an uber casting weapon. If a priest already has Benediction or has started it, they should back down. Same with Azuresong Mageblade, whoever has managed to snatch this should step down too. When looting, at least with my guild, the items are to go to people that will help the raid as a whole become even more powerful. I roll with a great group of peeps, and even if this was an upgrade, even if I had 200 more DKP than the next person that could use it, if I already had a good drop like the SoD or something I'd gladly pass. People fall in love with purples, forgetting that they are just the same as a blue drop with slightly amplified stats. Epics are NOT rare at these end-game raid instances, and we've had to DE drops several times now because some of them are absolute trash (*cough* Vendorstrike).

Face it, most people on here that argue the classes for a drop haven't ever been in MC or BWL in the first place, or if they have they are in it for the loot only not for the fun and teamwork that is involved. I love getting drops, but I refuse to be greedy about it. I will pass on things if they won't benefit me very much but will greatly benefit another attendee.

I wouldn't mind getting it since im still stuck with Sorcerous Dagger from MC, and mageblade haven't dropped more than 2 times for us, the same with SOD and we've been farming mc for 6 months now

Comentado por Allakhazam

People talk about other weapons being better, and I agree that having Mageblade and some good offhand is better but its not like you can choose what drops.
Besides, paladins usually buy mageblade (since somehow they have saved their DKP and got alot more then the rest of us who hasnt got our endgame weapon yet)

This staff is for those who wants it, though a druids are the ones who look best with it and as we all know:

Looks>all :)

Comentado por Allakhazam

Mages and Warlocks will probably have Azursong Mageblade + Fire Runed Grimoire (or the Alterac Offhand). Staff of the Shadow flame or Claw of Chromaguss will be an upgrade, but not this staff.
Besides Locks and Mages don't need so much int (they usually don't run OOM), healers on the other hand do.

Priests have Benediction, Palas can't use Staffs, so this one is most usefull for resto shammies and druids.

Of course if a mage were to bid dpk on it, I am sure no one would complain, but they aren't doing themselves a favor.

Comentado por Allakhazam

Where does it drop?

Comentado por Allakhazam

IMHO. The order of the looting is.....1) Mage/Priest/Lock 2) Druid/Shaman 3) And if yo really really want it hunters then take it lol.

Comentado por Allakhazam

this staff should be free for all casters.
but its especially nice for healers.
Mages have naturally priority on SoD. And this Staff is only slightly better than SoD regarding stats and +damage/healing.
So, let dkp and need decide. ppl who allready have their epic weapon should back off for others who dont anyway.
And is till think a mage should get Sod, those 3 more int wont get him 1% crit.

Not every damn staff with int in the game is meant for mages you idiots, stop !@#$%ing about how it's hardly an upgrade and stick with your SoD or Mageblade/Off-Hand combo...jeez

As for whether it's an upgrade from Tier 1 YES for many people. I know people who don't wear epics b/c they think their blues are better..and for them they are b/c that's how people play the game. Slap a +55 healing enchant on this staff and give it to me and send the whiny mages home

Obviously a hunter weapon

Comentado por Allakhazam

Got it and am now a happy druid. I was only one that wanted it since the rest of the druids allready have staff of dominance or this and the mages seem to be saving dkp for that insane nefarian staff. We've gotten 3 of theese in three weeks, now aren't we lucky!
Anyways it was a nice upgrade from my trindelhaven staff :D. It looks like corn on the cob lol and I L O V E it!

Btw to you who claim that it's not a healers staff, what weapons do you suggest a druid should get that's not a rare one? Staff of rampant growth is nice but seriously not all guilds can get those dragons down. You want healers to heal yer arses but you won't let them have gear to do so now that's just stupid.

Comentado por Allakhazam

Basically this staff will go to those with the most DKP period. No point in the whole my class, no it's my classes arguement cos all the top end raidgroups use DKP so to argue whoes loots it is a mute point.

The 1st time it dropped for us our lovely warlock witch walked away with it. Although I do admit the corn on the cob look didnt exactly suit the mistress of vileness that well :)

Comentado por Allakhazam

I assume they were trying to make the tip of the Staff look like a Dragon's tail, but that didn't go so well. To me it looks like a Pineapple.

Comentado por Allakhazam

Stats are insane..as a mage...I'd totally snatch that thing out of your hands.

Comentado por Allakhazam

DAMAGE and HEALING the healing bit = increases the healing done on your self if you have that staff, that staff is best for warlock/mage maybe druid to.

This is almost exactly like the Rank 14 Staff, cept the +40 is to int not stam. and -30 to spells.

Comentado por Allakhazam

... what would it look like? What Stats are needed to get you people say that a Mage benefits most from it? This thing is like "Woah" for a Mage, but that depends on the circumstances when this staff drops:

The first thing it reminded me of is:
Cajado de Guerra do Sumo Senhor da Guerra is a PvP Weapon, as well for Priests or Druids or whatever, and of course for Mages!

Now if you're a Mage going for +Crit then you're probably frost or fire and PvP skilled... If not, you just have to sit down and think again! In PvE +Crit means +Aggro... I know Critmages (Frost) that have just slightly more damage output than me, but just for the fact that they have yet the better equip... But these Mages are the only ones getting killed while Bossfights, and most of the times when exploring Highend Instances...
I aggree that over the long term +Crit is good... But if you Crit 3 times or more in a row its hard to get the Aggro down, you just can't control that!
Even if such Mages get careful and experience when they have to stop doing damage, thats just not what a Mage is supossed to be doing! Aggrocontrol = Damageloss!

Now to compare this one to High Warlord's:
The Stats are the ones saying this is a PvE Staff and HWs a PvP Staff, but even in PvE i would prefer HWs because there is quite a lot extra damage!

To compare this one to SoD:
IMO this one is better, but not much! If i had SoD just like most people before me stated: Give it to the Druids or whoever has the most DKP... (Even if i hadn't i would wait for the SoD since at that point of the game it should go away for a minimum of DKP)

Now only one question remains that i haven't answered myself:
Would i want this staff if i had Mageblade + Fire Runed Grimoire?

Comentado por Allakhazam

I love how people say, "Clearly this is meant for a Mage" or "This is obviously a Druid weapon", or any of any number of classes.

That's all silly, and pointless. Clearly, this staff is godly , and lets leave it at that. :)

You mages dont need all that spirit and stamina... give this to the priests, and theyd do wonders.

Plus, there the only caster that does both damage and heals (I know pallys and shams do to, but they cant wield staffs.)

SO STOP INT HOGGING MAGES!

Comentado por Allakhazam

I'm a mage myself, and in my opinion, if any mage or warlock or priest were to roll on this, having staff of dominance or azuresong mageblade, when someone else didnt have either, that'd just be sad.

people of all classes need to stop being greedy.

Whether the discussion is about paladins trying to outroll a mage or warlock on azuresong mageblade, or about a mageblade/dominance user rolling on this, cmon guys, its just pathetic.

if you don't have a decent end-game weapon already, by all means, roll onb this(if you are a cloth wearer, of course).

otherwise, let someone else have it, cmon guys.

No mage with a little self respect would ever equip that staff. We dont need intellect, and the damage stats on the staff is a joke and not an upgrade to SoD or Azuresong + offhander.

So dont worry i wont touch your staff druids, but on another note i think this item is a myth, as after killing the 3 drakes in about 20 clears im yet to see it drop. So dont hold your breath anyways.

I play a level 60 hunter on Stormreaver, and I've been saving up my DKP for a month for a nice melee weapon.

This is by far the best hunter staff I've seen. The stamina is really nice alone, but the bigger mana pool it will give me and the damage from Raptor Strikes will be insane. I can't wait for this staff to drop.
