A staff used by the albinaurics of the old, the Albinauric Staff has a blue gemstone embedded, and it comes under the umbrella of the Glintstone Staff in Elden Ring. You can scale this weapon primarily by investing your runes in your Intelligence and Arcane Attributes.
If you love investing in your Arcane attributes, having the Albinauric Staff is essential as it adds to your sorcery skills in Elden Ring.
Albinauric Staff Location
You can only obtain the Albinauric Staff by exploring the dangerous region of Volcano Manor in Mt. Gelmir.
The Site of Grace, located next to the Great Hall, takes you toward your location. To reach the Great Hall, you must first access the Prison Town. It can only be done once you find the secret path inside the Volcano Manor and make your way to the Temple of Eiglay.
Leave the room with the Great Hall site of grace and turn left. Make another left until you come across two sets of stairs. Climb both sets of stairs and leave the building from the north entrance. Beware of the man-serpent enemy guarding this entrance.
Once out, take a left and then take another left. You will notice a ladder taking you to the top floor (pictured below).
Take the ladder and move toward the backside of the roof to come across a small landing platform.
You must jump on the platform and enter the building through the open doors. The Albinauric staff and the Albinauric Mask are on a wooden chair in the room. However, this area is guarded by an Omenkiller enemy. Kill it before you acquire the Staff.
Albinauric Staff Upgrades and Stats
Initially, the damage output of Albinauric Staff is not excellent in Elden Ring. The stats show that you can deal 17 physical damage with every strike.
However, the good thing about this weapon is that it costs 0 FP to use its skills. Apart from the offense, you get negligible defensive guard against physical and other incoming damage.
To equip the weapon, you need to fulfill the attribute requirements that include:
- Strength: 6
- Intelligence: 10
- Arcane: 12
With the Albinauric Staff upgrades, your stats improve, and you can reach up to 29 physical damage by scaling the desired attributes. Additionally, you need Smithing Stones to upgrade Albinauric Staff to the next level. You can also improve your Hemoorhage build-up by casting Aberrant Sorceries through this weapon, dealing a good amount of damage to your foes in the Elden Ring.
