Overview

Boreal Spellstaff

Game iconBoreal Spellstaff is a two-handed staff of uncommon quality, added in The War Within expansion together with the Undermine zone in patch 11.1. It is a caster weapon: its stats are tuned for intellect, which is why the model is most often worn by mages, priests, warlocks, shamans, and druids.

The head of the staff is done in a cold blue-and-white palette with icy accents, playing on the name itself. The silhouette is clean and elongated, without excessive ornamentation — a handy, versatile base for frosty and wintry looks.

Source

The Boreal Spellstaff is given as a quest reward rather than dropping from a mob, so getting it is not difficult — the main thing is to complete the right stage of the story.

  • The source is the quest Expanding the Plan from the Undermine story campaign.
  • The objective has you ride Pamzy's rocket board and blast the pipes with ice — a simple mechanical stage with no boss fight.
  • The quest can be completed once per character, so you cannot obtain the appearance again on the same hero.
  • To gain access you will need to progress through the patch 11.1 Undermine campaign — the staff comes closer to its middle.
  • The appearance unlocks automatically: just choose the staff among the rewards and equip it once.

Who it suits visually

  • It fits wintry and frosty looks in a blue-and-white palette — for example, for frost mages.
  • It harmonizes with cloth sets in cold shades and snowy themes.
  • It looks great in concepts tied to ice elementals and northern magic.
  • It contrasts with dark and fiery sets — a debatable but noticeable accent.

Tips

1

Decide in advance which of the "Boreal" items to take: the quest gives only one reward of your choice.

2

If you want both the staff and the matching weapon, you will have to look for the second appearance from other sources — the quest cannot be turned in again.

3

The rocket-board stage is purely mechanical, so a character of any class and specialization can handle the run.

4

It is convenient to combine obtaining the staff with completing the rest of the Undermine campaign — weapon appearances come as incidental rewards along the way.

5

After choosing the reward, equip the item right away to lock the appearance into your collection, and you can sell the duplicate.

6

This appearance cannot be passed to group members or alts — it is personal, so farm it on the character you need.

Started playing back in Pandaria, when the pandaren were still a novelty. Got stuck on Monk because it's the only class where you don't get dizzy after a dash. Tries to manage both tanking and kicking enemies in the face.
