Staff of Loss | Elden Ring Wiki

From Elden Ring Wiki

Staff of Loss is a Glintstone Staff in Elden Ring. The Staff of Loss scales primarily with Intelligence and is a good Weapon for those looking to play an ambusher type of caster with a specific school of magic.

Staff missing its glintstone. Wielded by sorcerers who believe that discovery comes through acts of asceticism.

This staff only distinguishes itself when casting invisibility sorceries, but that is reason enough for some to wield it.

The Staff of Loss weapon can be found at the following location:

  • Sellia, Town of Sorcery: Found on a corpse leaning over a building's balcony in the west. Accessible by jumping across the rooftops. See the Sellia page for details on how to get it.

Elden Ring Staff of Loss Notes & Tips

  • Weapon Skill: No Skill
  • This weapon can be infused with the Ash of War: Spinning Weapon.
  • Can't be buffed by Magic or Consumables
  • Staff of Loss can be upgraded by using Smithing Stones
  • Boosts attack power of Invisibility sorceries by 30% when equipped.
    • Invisibility sorceries include Night Shard and Night Comet. Also note that these sorceries are not dodged by NPC characters, making this an excellent staff to fight enemies that tend to dodge other ranged attacks.
    • Despite belonging to the same category, Ambush Shard is not affected.
  • With 80 INT, this staff has: 179 sorcery scaling at +0 // 339 sorcery scaling at +25
  • At ~80 INT, this staff will outperform any staff in the game in terms of raw damage, so long as you limit yourself to only night sorceries (which is quite limiting).
  • Using 2 staffs simultaneously will cause the 30% boost to stack multiplicatively, creating the highest boost that can be attained for a single magic school (Gravity sorceries can be boosted similarly, but lack the ability to upgrade the staff).
    • This can only be done in NG+ or by getting someone to drop the second staff for you, as only one can be obtained per playthrough.
  • This staff has the same handle as the Carian Glintblade Staff, though it's a different color, and lacks a glintstone (or perhaps, it is just invisible).
  • Sell Value: er runes 13 200 Runes
  • NOTE: As of Patch 1.09, the scaling values of this weapon were changed. Please refer to the Upgrades Table of this weapon below.
