Demi-Human Queen's Staff | Elden Ring Wiki

I use this on my cold build, it's certainly not the best build i ever play with but, if u just happend to do cold with lower INT and higher DEX/STR, this staff is trusty for those spells, i reccomend DEX weapon over STR weapon to get better casting speed

Submit

Very decent early-to-mid game staff that outpaces the one you start with, and has a niche beyond that for low Int builds that would still like to do some casting. Just an all-round well-balanced weapon. I kind of prefer it to the Meteorite Staff because it feels like it keeps you honest.

Submit

Would have been neat if this staff was extra large to reflect where it came from, and to subtly encourage you to two-hand it for added strength bonus.

Submit

Noob Mage: levels intelligence then picks this up and never uses it. Should have leveled up the attention to detail stat.

Submit

This matches beautifully with the Watchdog's Staff and both take str so it's a nice aesthetic combo for cool people who care about that sort of thing.

Submit

Doesn’t really have a niche. What I thought would be cool is if it used a thrusting motion during casting for Str / Tank mages to be able to guard while casting.

Submit

this really should be the int version of the clawmark seal

Submit

This is a fantastic early game staff for mages as it's spell buff is really high and will outperform the starter staff. Allowing you to focus on investing in health and mana till your satisfied. Afterwards you can start pumping up Int and switch over to a better staff.

Submit

Is this any better then the meteor staff?

Submit

On what build would taking INT only to 40 be ideal? Assuming endgame SL125/SL150 builds, what build is taking INT to 40?

Submit

Does anyone know if this staff outperforms carian glintstone staff (exclusively using carian sword sorceries) at sub 40 int levels?

Submit

Them fools at the Academy don't know what they be missin'. - 20 INT 'Mage'.

Submit

I’m pretty sure it’s inferred Lusat might have made this.

He was expelled by the academy for studying the primeval current.

My guess is that he became more rebellious over frustration for not making sorcery more accessible for others. Only Radahn’s group also seemed to be heavily involved with working with beasts.

We see him and a few other sorcerers hanging out with demi-humans. He just gives the player a free spell for approaching him.

My guess is that he was trying to help foster their intelligence.

Submit

strength scaling? big muscles = more damaging magic beam

Submit

For when you want to cast Magic but don't want to go into all that Int investment, this is for you.

40 is very acceptable for builds utilizing Cold weapons as most get a C in Int scaling and favors whatever the 'primary' stat is. Very handy for those who prefer physical based stats but want an acceptable casting option, just in case.

It's niche, but in that niche it's great.

Submit

Use this on my Cold build, paired with a Cold Broadsword. Since a Cold Broadsword only gets C scaling with Int, it was best to use a staff that worked well with lower Int stats.

Submit

You can infuse with an ash of war and give it s int scaling. I guess the quote about being "sneared at by fools in the academy" made its way to the wiki more literally.

Submit

Best all around Staff in the game for low INT builds. Fully upgraded it has higher scaling than all staves(at least up to 25 INT). It might be worth switching to other staves if you want to specialize on one type of Sorcery though, because some give significant bonuses to certain spells.

Submit

This staff actually CAN have ashes of war. I only know of spinning weapon, but that is an ash of war that can be applied to it, so..

Submit

Stats seem to be wrong, this staff seems to have higher scaling than astrologer and glinstone staffs

Submit

I only use this staff because it doesn't look stupid

Submit

This staff is for hybrid builds who wont go above 40 int once this is at +14 its is superior to meteorite staff outside of gravity spells

Submit

The optimal use for this Staff is to have INT at 20 and just use Armament sorceries on a STR, DEX or QUALITY build.

Submit

I'm actually looking for a staff for a idea of a mostly pure strength build. I am going to use the Ruin Greatsword with min int since I was having fun with it on my int build but it's actual int scaling wasn't doing me much good. Figured let's select a staff that works well at low levels and get some auxiliary spells. Seems to me this is the most ideal staff for that role.

Scaling with 45 Sorc

At 45 INT

Sorcery Scaling at 23 Intelligence:

*Astrologer's Staff +4 = 131
*Demi-Human Queen's Staff +0 = 132
*Demi-Human Queen's Staff +4 = 142

*I wonder at what INT the Astro Staff will overtake the DHQ Staff.

Submit

Why does it have a str req of 6??, you cant even get 6 str

Submit

It can be infused with ashes of war, wtf, I have option to add "spinning blade"

Submit

Where are these stats coming from? They don't match with the game I'm playing. At +6 the SOR scaling is 156 not 172

Submit

This staff appears to be better for low int characters. It outperformed all my other staffs when I had 20 int.

Submit

My Demi-Human Queen's Staff +0 Sorc scalling are 114
at level 1 Wretch ( it means stats all 10 )

Submit

Without upgrades it has sorcery scaling of 130. Not 146.

Submit

Given 48 intelligence, Sorcery Scaling for Mid-Game:

Academy Glintstone Staff +14: 214

Meteorite Staff: 213

Academy Glintstone Staff +13: 210

Crystal Staff +6: 206

Carian Glintstone Staff +13: 202

Demi-human Queen's Staff +13: 199

Digger's Staff +13: 191

Staff of Loss +13: 187

So, for mid-game, Academy Glintstone Staff *barely* beats outs Meteorite Staff, provided you upgrade it to +14.

Submit

Would this be considered a good staff for a str/int build? If not what would be considered a good one for use? Was thinking 60Str/50Int, mostly focused on str/int weapons but wanted a staff offhand for use also

Submit

Is anyone else getting a glitch with this staff? At +20 with 60 Int, it does 387 damage or randomly 430 damage(a crit maybe) with my rock sling spell. If I increase my Int to 69 it does 227 damage.

Submit

It says 60 because people keep putting the stats on the staves they're seeing without the required INT most likely, or something similar because all staves display 60 sorcery scaling if you don't meet the INT requirement.

Submit

Started the game as a Vagabond (kicking my int, faith, and arcane up to 10 because I like round numbers), decided to throw on the one glintstone pebble spell I had for shiggles, and oh my god it did so much more work than I ever thought it would.

It’s not the best staff in the game by a longshot, but its low stat requirements allowed me to experiment with sorcery just enough to make me re-spec into a proper spellknight build at the first opportunity.

Submit

My Demi-Human Queen's Staff at +4 only has 139 Sorcery Scaling, not 164

Submit

This staff at +8 has 163 Sor Scaling when at 40 Int.
Whoever posted the above table (at time of this posting) has significantly more Int than that - perhaps around 50?

Submit

less damage than +17 academy glintstone at +19, can't believe I got memed into upgrading this ****..

Submit

This staff can optain ashes of war! For example spin attack

Submit

my un-upgraded staff has 126 as sorcery scaling, why does it say 60?

Submit

Worse than your starting staff as a sorc, ignore this.

Submit

What staff do you switch to after this one and at which point do you switch im at about 30 int and +13 and im not sure if i should put anymore smithing stones in it if its more a of early to mid game staff

Submit

This staffa scales with Int, not Dex. Might be a typo :)

Submit

Anybody know what the Int of the person who posted these numbers was? It says its supposed to be listed in the table, but they didn't list it. Kind of confusing.

Submit

Staff is perfect for twinking at low intelligence levels. It's like the Oolacile one in Dark Souls 1.

Submit

after testing, at int 29, Demi-Human Queen's Staff + 11 will be outputting more damage than the meteorite staff since it receives A scaling in int at that point

Submit

sorcery scaling is 144 without upgrade

Submit

it does not scale with dex

Submit

An easy staff to get from the beginning. I beat the Queen as a Wretch lvl 1. Kill all the her ads before you take on the Queen. I stayed on horseback, she only hit me once, it was easy.

Submit

Demi-human queen's staff weight : 3.0

Submit

wrong stat.

Submit

does this item really give a 60% sorcery scaling? so it gives a lot less damage?!

Submit

is this 100% drop? seen some comments on YT where people said it didn't drop. if this is the case, does the mini boss respawn, please? I need this for my Spellblade.

only just started the game though, so nowhere near this location yet.

Submit

I press R1 and my dude developes lice wtf
