Anu-Azshara, Staff of the Eternal — Transmog Set Guide
Overview

Anu-Azshara, Staff of the Eternal is a two-handed staff for every intellect specialization: priests, mages, warlocks, shamans, druids, monks and evokers. The weapon arrived in the Battle for Azeroth expansion alongside the Eternal Palace raid (patch 8.2) and is built around a distinct Nazjatar aesthetic: a twisted haft adorned with shell and coral motifs, crowned with turquoise and gold crystals that radiate the cold glow of the naga's underwater palace.
The staff was conceived as the trophy of the raid's final fight, which makes it sought after by transmog collectors: the silhouette is instantly recognizable, and the glowing crystals keep the model noticeable even from a distance. A character wields it like a classic long staff, so the look suits a mage or priest building a fantasy around the sea and naga magic.
Source
The staff drops from Queen Azshara, the final boss of the The Eternal Palace raid in the underwater zone of Nazjatar.
- The source is personal loot from Queen Azshara, the last of the raid's eight bosses.
- The drop chance is low, estimated by players at around 2 percent, so the farm stretches over several weeks.
- The staff drops on every raid difficulty, so for transmog you can simply kill the boss wherever it is fastest, usually on Looking for Raid or Normal difficulty.
- Loot from the final boss is not capped by a personal weekly lock on the item itself: running it once a week on several characters increases your number of attempts.
- In the Midnight expansion (level cap 90) the raid counts as outdated and can be soloed, so no group coordination is needed to obtain the staff.
Who it suits visually
- Looks with a sea and Nazjatar theme, where the turquoise and gold of the crystals echo the armor of the Eternal Palace raid.
- Sets in cold shades: blue, aquamarine and purple fabrics amplify the glow of the crystals.
- Priest or mage concepts of a "lord of the depths," where the staff becomes the focal point of the outfit.
- Contrasting builds with dark armor: the glowing crown stands out against black and contrasts with obsidian-colored plate.
Tips
Run the raid once a week on several characters of suitable classes, as this multiplies your number of attempts against the low drop rate.
Pick the lowest available difficulty: on outdated content, Looking for Raid or Normal clears faster, and the appearance does not depend on difficulty.
Do not skip earlier bosses without reason, as reaching Queen Azshara is still easier after clearing the hall, but use an active raid skip if you have one.
Access to the raid opens after the Nazjatar intro campaign from Battle for Azeroth (patch 8.2): without it the passage through the whirlpool at the Queen's Gate is unavailable.
It is most convenient to farm on classes with high mobility and self-healing, since they clear the raid without downtime.
Check the loot specifically after Queen Azshara, as the staff drops only from her and no other boss provides it.
Stock up on patience, as with a roughly 2 percent chance, assembling the look usually takes several weeks of regular runs.
