diablo 3 eternal collection staff of herding

Leoric’s Shinbone - you can find this item in the fireplace of the entry hall of Leoric’s Manor, also in Act 1.

It can spawn in multiple locations, so your best bet is to scour the entire Cathedral first level for a sign of it.

Black Mushroom - found in Tristram Cathedral level 1 in Act 1.

The items that make up the Staff and their locations are as follows:

You’ll also need the plan for the Blacksmith, which is a random drop from Izual in Act 4 in the Great Span, accessed from the Silver Spire. To craft the Staff of Herding, you’ll need 50,000 gold and a collection of unusual items. Getting the Staff of Herding will require an epic scavenger hunt

If playing the game in Story Mode, your best bet is to load a chapter of the game in that takes you to the item location and if the item is not there, leave the game entirely and restart that act again, and again, and again until the item finally spawns.Īnd worse still, if you manage to craft the thing then sacrificing it to the Altar means you can’t use the staff for its original purpose: to go to Whimsyshire and farm up all that sweet technicolor treasure. This will mean you must leave and reset the area by completing other tasks - such as an Adventure Mode bounty - before trying your luck again. In order to make a Staff of Herding, you will have to go on the hunt for a variety of items that randomly spawn in the world, and often will not be there when you reach the area where they appear. This isn’t because the Staff has potent magical powers or costs much gold to make, but rather the sheer random chance that is involved in its creation.

The Staff of Herding is the most difficult and onerous of them all. The Seals and Legendary Potion powers that players will unlock with the Altar all require sacrifices of some kind - crafting materials, blood shards, even Petrified Screams, or lost souls, or a book you can only get in your Set Dungeons. Season 28 of Diablo 3 adds some gameplay twists befitting the Rites of Sanctuary Season theme - including ritual sacrifice on the Altar of Rites of expensive items, like the Staff of Herding.
