The Glintstone Staff is a Glintstone Staff in Elden Ring. It is found early on, in Limgrave.

The Glintstone Staff is a plain staff with a glintstone in the tip, a catalyst for casting sorceries memorized at a Site of Grace. It is the Prisoner's starting staff, and Wandering Noble sorcerers can drop it, such as the one south of the Waypoint Ruins. As a catalyst it offers C Intelligence sorcery scaling with a low requirement. It is a starting staff to be replaced once a stronger one is found. It suits a new sorcerer.
