These magical sticks are what the Tarnished use to cast sorceries in the world of Elden Ring. There are 18 Glintstone Staffs in Elden Ring, and not all are spectacular. Each staff has its own function and specialty. That makes it very difficult to pick out the best among all. Still, we can separate them into categories based on their usage and…

Throughout your playthrough of Elden Ring, you will have to go through many dark tunnels, fight invisible enemies and encounter all kinds of scary beasts.
