Anachronos, the big Bronze Dragon hanging out in front of the Caverns of Time, starts the quest after you collect the 40 splinters.

If your in a guild that is having a hard time with AQ40 and decide to skip it and to try and get the 'phat looties' from Naxx, you're never going to get this staff.

You're going to need to be at least Neutral with the Brood of Nozdormu, and be able to kill C'thun to get the base. As well as kill Kel'Thuzad for the head, but that should go with out say.

Just so everyone knows, they didn't deisgn the staff out of nowhere. It is the staff of Medivh from the other Warcraft games. Yes, it is an owl on a stick, but it goes along with Warcraft lore. Personally I would love to have it and show it off because it was based off of a really awesome character.

Its pretty much an wooden owl on a stick, and the cloth strip hanging off of it glows a different color for each class.
Alot of people say "oo they dont look that shiney for the ultimate staves". Well i think of it as an "old money" kind of staff. Old money doesnt need to show off and be flashy. Old money is pimp, and it knows it.

The bird on top is a raven, not an owl. The appearance almost exactly matches how it looks in the Warcraft III cinematics, most prominently visible when Medivh appears as a raven and warns king Terenas of the plague.

This is probably one of the only items that has been modeled before they even started working on WoW, explaining the not-so-legendary looks.
But it would've been very odd if they changed it into something more appealing, while it has been so well visible before.

Interesting point you made (beside the swearing, that is), I found it quite remarkable to find such great difference in stats.
It may be due to the fact that the mage version has yet to be found, and may still change.

But when calculating the item points used it can make sense. For easy experimention I used http://subcreation.net/itemlevel/ to calculate items levels (uses the Hyz system), the item scores below refer to the raw item scores used in this calculation.

Let's compare:

The stats that are the same, and therefore can be left out of the calculations:
- 150 damage/healing
- Karazhan portal

The mage version:
- 31 sta - Item score: 7130
- 32 int - Item score: 7360
- 24 spi - Item score: 5520
- 2% hit - Item score: 5000
- 2% crit to all party members - 2% crit has an item score of 5200. I assumed it is multiplied by 5 (the number of party members), so 26000.

All added together: 51010

The warlock version:
- 30 sta - Item score: 6900
- 29 int - Item score: 6670
- 2% crit - Item score: 5200
- 33 damage/healing to all party members - As above, but now for 33 damage/healing with an item score of 6336, resulting in 31680.

All added together: 50450

So the difference would be 560 points, which seems to be equivalent to only a few stat points, or they can be attributed to the inaccuracy of the calculator.

Of course, this may be wrong:
- the calculator can just suck
- my assumption for the value of the party member effects is wrong
- I may have misinterpreted the way the calculator should be used
- etc. etc.

Bottom line is that the stats for these items may be defendable using WoW's item values.

But I sure agree that is seems imbalanced.

To make everyone know...
medivh is the son of the woman who killed sargeras, she got corrupted and when medivh born, the cursed transfered to him, and from him to the stave.So he opened the dark portal to let the orcs come to azeroth and make it less powerfuller to the coming of the legion, then when orc became good, undeads came and started to corrupt the world

Gotta love how the CASTER legendary gets outdated so guickly :)

Why actually keep the staff when you could sell it? I mean it's over 17g vendor! Think of all the darkmoon reserve! ;)Not to mention, of course, you would become world famous among all warcraft players as the dumbass who actually turned it into vendor trash...

There seems to be a conflict. Some people want this staff to look menacing and evil with at least two different glows, maybe some spikes and acid dripping from a shark's mouth or something. Another group finds the simplicity of design and lore behind the current model admirable.

The only resolution to this conflict is to increase the size of the current staff by 10000%, allowing it to sweep grandly though the entire city of Ironforge every time its wielder turns around.

The staff will port you OUTSIDE Karazhan, and eaven if you wanted get this staff, Karazhan attunement would be easyer.

Pre-BC, this staff was like... well lets say like doing a lvl 65 or maybe 66 instance at lvl 60, and it was very hard. i myself never got a splinter - The mages (priests got Hammer of Twisting Nether) had priority - and since im warlock i could just cry tears of flame in anger :(

Now, after BC, this staff is easy to get if you have a guild willing help you whit it. I heard of guilds grinding it to their casters for the Portal to Karazhan (evryone HS shattrath and take the port, easy and fast for repair etc)

To clear out the quest // drop to get it:

Pieces
The staff has been split into several pieces which were scattered around the world.

Kel'Thuzad's underlings in Naxxramas each have a chance to drop a .
Once all 40 Splinters have been found, they may be combined into the , which gives a quest to visit the dragon Anachronos. You are then given a quest to obtain the Staff Head and Base of Atiesh.
Kel'Thuzad drops .
The drops from C'Thun in the Temple of Ahn'Qiraj.
You have to travel to Stratholme to cleanse the staff, and then slay Atiesh, Hand of Sargeras.

When u fight Shade of Aran and someone in the party has this staff equiped he will say "Where did you get that? Did HE send you?"

I really do wonder why blizzard didn't do something with the level 60 content. Onyxia used to be legend, now there's no amazing sort of bosses or anything, just a demon. Oh yeah. He's 100'000'000ft tall. He used to be human blizz. HUMAN -.-

It annoys me that nobody will ever enjoy wow as much as I did pre-TBC. I'm hoping blizz will make non-TBC servers once WoTLK is out but I very much doubt it when it could discourage people from buying their expansions.

With them getting £10 a month from so many million people you'd think they would be happy enough but they want us to give them the extra £10 every time they release an expansion to make their last end game pointless again.

In the end it's just a game but knowing that all those amazing outdoor bosses, onyxia, ragnaros and so much more will go unkilled for years makes me sort of sad. =[

I'm not sure if anyone else has said this, but whenever you fight Shade of Aran in Karazhan and one of the raid members has Atiesh, he says "Where did you get that! Did HE send you?".

Each staff has a diffrent color tassel hanging from the head... druid is green, mage is red, lock is blue, and priest is white.

First the 'hunter wepon' things is VERY stupid . Imagine that u are a fury war and a hunter will take your 1h sword just becaus it looks cool ... almost all nubs are hunter .

Second : The staff is VERY hard 2 get , even a 20 mad ( 70 ofc) raid will get raped in naxx and AQ40

3rd : yes i think that TBC are very stupid and have no story ... exept illidan

4th : the staff is no good at 70 ... beter buy The Bringer of Death that to farm the stafll 300 hours :D

tks and sorry 4 my english

I left a comment under C'Thun about bringing pre-BC stuff back (which I am all for).

Besides that, I think this staff is amazing and even though it isn't even close to being the best staff in the game, in my mind it is one of the most impressive. You also have to throw in the fact that most epics even tier 1 and 2 were replaced very early in BC, to think this staff made it all the way to 70 without be replaced is huge (and even at 70 it was still pretty good back in the early days of BC)?.

It would be very hard to find a group of 70's willing to help anyone get this staff, everyone is far too wrapped up in getting heroic badges and PvPing to even think about this staff. If I could have the chance to get this staff, I would hands down at whatever the cost.

Not to mention, there is a possibility that you won't be able to obtain this staff in WOTLK with the revamp, sure they may add a lvl 80 version or they might not. But whether there is a 80 version and a 60 version, this may very well be a DISCONTINUED legendary piece that very few will have.

were does it drop

Are you sure anachronos gives u the quest end for "frame of Atiesh?" Every time i go near him he beats the living crap out of me. I remember getting some reputaion for killing that one boss in Ahn'Quraj, but im not quite sure were i can get more...

Комментарий от Thottbot

One of the graphics designers for blizzard, as I understand was from Iran.
Atiesh, in Iranian means fire. Just thought you may like to know.
Also, the 42 parts to make Atiesh is a reference to pluto nash, when these oricals said that the answer to life was 42.
