Get Nibbles' Training Rod

Nibbles' Training Rod is a two-handed staff added to World of Warcraft with the Midnight expansion. It is a dungeon weapon done in light lilac and crystalline tones, topped with a coiled arcane worm. The silhouette nods to the pet of the dungeon's first boss — an arcane worm named Nibbles, whose name the staff bears.

The staff suits every specialization that uses this weapon type: mages, warlocks, priests, shamans, druids and monks. For transmogrification only the model matters, so any staff-wielding class can wear its appearance. In terms of quality it is a rare item, and its model does not duplicate the pricier epic counterparts, which makes the rod an accessible and recognizable option for caster looks.

The staff drops in the Murder Row dungeon — a Midnight expansion dungeon set in the dark streets of Silvermoon, where a Fel smuggling network operates. The dungeon opens at roughly level 83.

• The drop source is the dungeon's first boss, Kystia Manaheart.
• Kystia fights alongside her arcane worm Nibbles, whom she keeps under control through corruption.
• The staff drops from her loot table, with a drop chance standard for an item from a dungeon boss's table.
• Farming is unlimited: the dungeon can be rerun every day, with no cap on attempts.
• Normal, Heroic and Mythic modes are available, and the item can drop in any of them.

The rod has no known official recolors — it is a unique model from the Murder Row loot table. If you want a staff with a similar silhouette in a light crystalline palette, take a look at other weapons from the Midnight dungeons of the same season.

• The staff matches thematically with the rest of the Murder Row loot, so it makes sense to gather the other weapon appearances from this dungeon while farming the rod.
• The exact numbers of similar models depend on the current season, so check the dungeon's reward list on Wowhead before your runs.

• Suits mage and warlock looks in a light-purple and crystalline palette, where the worm finial serves as an accent.
• Harmonizes with cloth armor sets in cool lilac and silvery tones.
• Fits themed looks tied to arcane magic and the blood elves of Silvermoon.
• Contrasts strikingly against dark plate armor if you bet on the bright finial as the only light element.
