Demi-Human Queen’s Staff is one of the 18 Glintstone staves in the Elden Ring that the Demi-Human Queen drops after she is defeated in a duel. It is a must-have weapon for any Intelligence-based build.
This Staff can be acquired early on in the game and proves to be a great weapon to have in your inventory from the initial playthrough.
In addition to that, this weapon can also be upgraded for better potential. But before getting into that, players must know the exact location of the boss that wields this staff.
Demi-Human Queen’s Staff Location
The Demi-Human Queen’s Staff is obtained by defeating the Demi-Human Queen in Elden Ring, whom the Staff was once offered to as a sign of peace.
The Demi-Human Queen will be encountered in the ruins named the Demi-Human Forest Ruins which are located in the Weeping Peninsula.
To reach the Weeping Peninsula, start from Limgrave and continue east till you reach the Bridge of Sacrifice.
Cross this bridge and turn west, and you will reach a field that you need to cross to reach the Watchtower. Beware of enemies that can ambush you on the watchtower.
Continue heading forward, and you will reach the Demi-Human Forest Ruins, where you will encounter the Demi-Human Queen along with the Demi-Human Chief and other common Demi-Human enemies.
The Demi-Human Queen is a very easy boss to defeat as she does not have many special attacks. Her attacks are pretty standard and can be dodged easily. However, you need to watch out for her Crystal Burst attack, which can kill you in a single shot.
Once defeated, the Demi-Human Queen will drop her staff, which you will acquire automatically.
