A guide on where to find all the Staves in Elden Ring

In Elden Ring, there are two primary forms of spellcasting: sorceries and incantations. Incantations scale primarily with Faith, and require Sacred Seal weapons to utilize. Sorceries, on the other hand, scale primarily with Intelligence, and require Staff weapons to utilize. While Incantations offer a bit more diversity, Sorceries tend to be the optimal choice for raw damage-dealing capacity, though your ability to deal that damage is directly proportional to how effectively your Staff slings spells. If you’re not sure what the best Staff for you is, then clearly the solution is to get all of them! Here are all of the Staff locations in Elden Ring.
