staff's

[pjn18]

where can you buy some good staff's? my current character is an orc (level 23) specializing in dual wielding. I want to find some decent staff's so i can handle some longer range combat. Didnt really want to use the bow cuz i used it a lot for my first guy.

Anyone know of certain places that might have some decent ones? thanks in advance

Go to whiterun and into the bannered mare. Wait for the guy to challenge you to a drinking contest. Do that quest, you get an awesome staff!

I second that! and great quest line as well!

^Sooo good! Possibly the most humorous quest I've done so far too
The goat bit makes me laugh!

And the staff is the coolest looking staff in the game in my opinion.

I suggest what skindog said. Great little quest. I've stolen so many staffs I can't keep track. I am criminal scum, through and through

Anyways, here are some nice staffs I've come across:

One of a kind:
Staff of Arcane Authority
Staff of Jyrik Gauldurson
Halldir’s Staff
Staff of Hag’s Wrath
Gadnor’s Staff of Charming
Dragon Priest Staff (2)
Wabbajack
Staff of Tandil
Sanguine's Rose
Staff of Magnus

Other:
I've come across some basic staffs here and there that have proven to be useful. For instance, Staff of Fireball/Staff of Lightning, and such. There are multiples of these staffs around the game and are not one of a kind. If you're a mage, you can develop equally damaging destruction spells but these staffs can still prove useful at times.



I had originally wrote locations underneath, but I erased thinking it could be possible spoilers/cheating.

I got the Dragon Priest Staff (fire) recently. As a character with very little spell use (have shouts of course), I find this staff to be very useful against multiple enemies. It's also just a lot of fun to use.

On my first character, this staff -> Sanguine's Rose was by far my most favorite. Simply because it summoned a demon to fight for you. I used it all the time as a decoy, summoning one across the room to flank my enemies or right in the middle of a group to cause confusion and distraction from me.

wabaajack staff is the best
