Get Expeditionary Quarterstaff
Overview

Expeditionary Quarterstaff is an uncommon-quality two-handed staff from the Exile's Reach starting zone. It is a deliberately plain model: a smooth wooden shaft with minimal ornamentation, designed for new characters. Despite its modesty, transmog collectors value this "clean" silhouette when they need a simple staff without flashy effects — for example, for the look of a wanderer, a monk, or a humble priest.
Only the model matters for transmogrification, so the appearance can be worn by any class that can use staves. In terms of stats it is a starter-level weapon with no combat value — it is taken purely for its looks.

The staff is given as a quest reward while completing the Exile's Reach starting zone — the tutorial path for new characters added in the Shadowlands expansion. The weapon is offered as a choice alongside other types of reward gear, so to obtain the staff specifically you need to select it in the reward window.
- The appearance is available from the quest Ride of the Scientifically Enhanced Boar on Exile's Reach.
- The same item is offered for the quest The Re-Deather — the final part of the same chain.
- The reward is given as a choice, so when collecting the quest loot be sure to pick the staff and not another weapon.
- The zone is designed for characters of level 1–10 and is available to most Alliance races.
- The item binds on pickup, so it cannot be passed to other characters — the appearance must be unlocked by whoever runs the zone.
If you have already skipped the needed quest on your current character, the easiest option is to create a new one and run the starting zone again, choosing the staff as your reward.
Visual Fit
- Suits simple cloth and leather sets in the look of a wanderer or pilgrim.
- Harmonizes with natural wooden and earthy armor tones.
- Contrasts with heavy, richly decorated gear — a deliberately modest choice for minimalist looks.
- Looks great on monks and druids who need an unremarkable, "traveler's" staff.
Tips
The fastest way to get the appearance is to run the Exile's Reach starting zone on a new character and choose the staff as your reward.
In the reward selection window, carefully pick the staff itself: the other options do not unlock this appearance.
Completing the starting zone takes little time, so the appearance is convenient to collect alongside leveling a new character.
If you collect simple weapon models, grab the other "expeditionary" appearances of the same style from neighboring quests too.
The appearance is unlocked into your appearance collection as soon as you receive the item, after which it can be disenchanted or sold.
One copy is enough for transmogrification — there is no need to run the zone again for a duplicate.

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.
