Meteorite Staff is a Glintstone Staff in Elden Ring. The Meteorite Staff scales primarily with Intelligence and is a good Weapon for early game as it provides S scaling with only 18 Int requirement. It also boosts gravity-type Sorceries

 

Staff embedded with a dark purple glintstone, said to be the fragment of a meteorite. Boasts high sorcery scaling and boosts gravity sorceries as well.
However, this staff cannot be strengthened in any way.

Elden Ring Meteorite Staff Notes & Tips

  • Weapon Skill: No Skill
  • This weapon cannot be infused with Spinning Weapon.
  • Can't be buffed by Magic or Consumables
  • Meteorite Staff cannot be upgraded.
  • Boosts the power of Gravity sorceries by 30%
  • The Meteorite Staff is arguably the best choice for early-game sorcerers. With its excellent scaling, the staff boosts INT-based builds and magic damage in general by a lot without needing any upgrade investment. However, since it is not upgradeable, it gets outperformed in the mid-game by upgradable staffs like the Demi-Human Queen's Staff, and should be replaced by a staff that's been upgraded to +15 or better.
    • 138 Sorcery Scaling at 18 Int, 193 at 40 and 265 at 75
  • Sell Value:  er runes 13 200

Sorcery Scaling is based on Int stat. The Int of the character with the staff equipped at the time of posting the Sor Scaling is located in the (Int) to the right of the scaling amount. This will help to give a general idea of what staves are better at various Int levels until MAX is achieved.

      Hey I cant find it, I went to the same location and everything but the dead body wasn't there, mind you Im playing the offline 1.0 version of the game, is there any difference?

        this is my fav staff in the game, was my go to staff on my original play though it was a beast early game with rock sling, yes it does lose out the better staffs the higher your int, however its not useless. in the end game it becomes a great staff to pair with your stronger option just because that 30% on gravity magic slaps so hard, plus the new dlc spells are amazing and i would recomend a gravity build to anyone that hasnt tried it.

          I really don't understand why they chose the gravity staff to be the unupgradable staff leaving one of the best schools of magic without a proper staff. Instead, the staff's niche is a early game op staff. Then again, Carian regal scepter always ends up the best staff for an int build at 70 int. Most people probably duel wield staffs anyways...

            Yo everyone, does staves work as seals? I mean, is it better if I use 2 meteoric staves than 1 other (let´s say, carian regal) and the meteoric in offhand? Or if I use two regal for the full moon sorceries for example? Just starting ng+ mage mode

              This Staff has the exact same Numbers (one point difference) than the Academy Glintstone Staff + 14. You can generally Ignore the Demi-Human Staff when playing a Sorcery build by the time you got +15 you should have over 40 Int.
              This means a good progression route for Int-Sorcerer is -> Meteorite until +15 Upgrades then switch to Academy or Astrologer until 70 Int then switch to Regal or Crystal

              Though the Crystal Staff is found very early and will be MUCH easier to upgrade until Mountaintops since Somber Stones are everywhere and because of that generally out perform the other staves so maybe just stick to that one.

                does the effect stack if you have two of them out at the same time... because if it does i'm wondering if that would out damage some of the higher ranked catalysts for gravity magic

                  at what int level does this stop being the best staff for gravity sorceries? i want to do a gravity themed sorcerer with the right staff. i won't accept "just dual wield with another staff bro" as an answer

                    Its unfortunate that they made a staff that boosts a type of sorcery the “jump start” staff as a different commenter said. The Demi-Queen’s Staff would have been a better choice for that. Now gravity sorceries don’t have a boosting staff thats viable late game like many other sorcery school do

                      Lord Miyazaki in the heavens, I just wish this thing had a strength scaling that would affect sorcery scaling kinda like the clawmark seal, Amen

                        Because it doesn't match higher weapon upgrade and matches with +0, this is the strongest invasion tool for extreme low level trolling.

                        In other news, it's the best staff for chucking gravity wells if you're 20 int and using ruins GS, radahns, alabaster GS, meteoric ore, etc etc. for high str low int gravity melee builds.

                          For anyone who wants the oversimplified answer, just think of the Meteorite Staff as being locked at around +15/+6 with a healthy bonus to gravity spells.

                            Somehow stumbled onto this weapon within the first few hours on my first playthrough. Never played a souls game before and it carried me up until fire giant lmao

                              I’m not complaining that it can’t be upgraded, it’s just strange that it’s the only weapon in the game that can’t be. Even a torch can be upgraded. Very bizarre for an item that’s just found on a corpse like any other.

                                I feel like people complaining that it’s not upgradable are missing the point of why that’s both good and important. For sorcerers, you want to raise your stats as high as possible and as fast as possible. You care much more about getting Int to 80 than melee units care about it for their stats. So not having to spend runes for the first 1-2 bosses on upgrading your staff directly transfers to more Int. It also makes it easier to build melee weapons on top of casting.

                                In contrast with incantations, most incantations up through Limgrave aren’t doing damage. You don’t get lightning for a while, so the best you’ll have are some dragon incantations. So scaling your Talisman isn’t as important which is one reason Fth hybrid builds work so well. On the other hand, most Sorceries you get are for damage. You need to actually be able to deal damage with them.

                                There are melee equivalents to this (GUGS, Bloodhound Blade, Golden Halberd) that you can get before even reaching Godrick’s castle. At least for this, you have to survive the miserable roaches spamming webs while at level 5. And long-term, it’s outclassed. It’s just there as a jumpstart for mages who want to rely on spells for damage

                                  I like magic but this staff ruins the fun of leveling a weapon. It's the best staff you can get until +4 somber Lusat's, or +14 Academy for int scaling.

                                    Low level character with zero upgrades. Level 19 Astrologer all levels in INT. Use every INT boosting item. Dual wield two of this staff. Get Meteorite of Astel and Cerulean Hidden Tear. Low level co-op and surprise host with boss one shot to get a priceless reaction. Admittedly though, going through the game without upgrades at low level up to Astel is a high price.

                                      This thing does bonkers damage.
                                      Even with 30 INT, I had enough damage output to kill dragons at Dragonbarrow with stuff like Carian Slicer with relative ease.

                                      This will carry you all the way to the Altus Plateau in a spell blade build.

                                          I just wish the staff had slightly more embellishment in its design. I like it, but it does feel noticeably plain compared to the other staves in game.

                                            Yes, why not just give mages pre-upgraded +12 level staff which they can grab right from the start. As if mage gameplay is not easy enough already. But of course, there is no way this is an early game thing, complaining that newcomers won't ever find it by themselves until reaching midgame stage is ridiculous

                                                as a melee main I like using this as a ranged option since I don't have to spend stones or make ammo for it, and that +30% dmg is pretty good. Use it with cold infusion or native int weapon for best results.

                                                  Idiotic that this is a great early game staff but a first-time player will probably not find it until much later in the story as it's in the middle of one of the most dangerous areas in the game and already obsolete if you're at an appropriate level to actually explore it safely.

The stats of this staff are genuinely baffling, why is this the ONE weapon out of hundreds that cant be upgraded making it op early game and also not filling the gravity sorcerer niche late game

                                                              At 41 int (when Academy Glinstone Staff passes Demi-human) the Academy Glinstone staff and Demi-Human surpass it when upgraded past +14 from my testing (note: I did not take into account the 10% gravity bonus, but result will still be similar anyway).

                                                              Basically, at 41 int and stave upgrades past +14 you should start using a better staff and keeping the Meteorite staff in your offhand if you still want the bonus and don't mind duel wielding. Let me know if my clacs are wrong, they're likely a little off.

The amount of players that use this exclusively and level to high intelligence hurts my head. This staff is only good for buffing gravity sorceries.

The reason that I say this is that all of the weapons with innate Gravity skills (Meteoric Ore Blade, Alabaster Lord's Sword, Onyx Lord's Greatsword, Fallingstar Beast Jaw, Starscourge Greatsword) are all Strength oriented Intelligence weapons that deal more physical damage than magic damage at even Strength/Intelligence. The existence of the Clawmark Seal proves that they could have done it.

                                                                                    Sure you'd have to nerf the boost that it gives to Gravity sorceries and it would be useless on most Intelligence builds, but it would complement the 5 Gravity weapons as I'll call them very well. However Meteorite of Astel would need to have the Intelligence requirement lowered a bit to around 45 Int to make it work better with this Staff if that was the case.

                                                                                    • Anonymous

                                                                                        It claims to be outclassed by staffs at higher int levels, but that requires upgrading those staffs to VERY high levels, even at 60 Int, it still outclasses a +6 Carian Regal Scepter, 244 to 237, and doesn't need the rune ro smithing stone cost to upgrade. Once you have this, you should just keep using it until you beat at least the Fire Giant, but keeping it as far as Radagon is still a good move.

                                                                                        It also powers up Rock Sling which can be found nearby, which is boosted by 30%, meaning even if you have a staff with higher scaling (like the aformentioned staff) it still won't do as much damage as it doesn't get this boost. Did I mention Rock Sling is one of the few sorceries that can stun enemies, so you can get more slings off while they're stunned? It's also very cheap on FP.

                                                                                        This thing is RIDICULOUSLY op in PVE, no other staff is worth having AT ALL until you have 60 Int and Lusat's to start Comet Azuring people. This, which you can pick up in probably under 10 minutes of starting the game by getting Torrent and simply riding into east Aeonia can easily still be your best staff going into Radagon+EB.

                                                                                        • Anonymous

Definitely the best staff for mage-only runs, the QoL of not having to upgrade it is felt for the whole run.

                                                                                          • Anonymous

                                                                                            • Anonymous

                                                                                              do anyone know how much Sol scale can make up the 30% buff

As it is now there in NO reason to use any other staff until +14 upgrade. This would also mean that it would be good late game when using gravity spells.

                                                                                                • Anonymous

They should nerf its current scaling and make it upgrade so that it fills the niche of being the gravity magic staff and no the early game staff which should be filled by the demihuman queen staff instead.

                                                                                                  • Anonymous

If this scaled with Str better end game I would love to do a Str/Int build focused solely on gravity magics.

But if you want to actually survive fights whilst still doing good damage, having a decent equip load, having high fp,hp and sp whilst having a good weapon as a side arm that's highly upgraded then always pick this bad boy up
