Where to Find the Staff of Turning Location?

  • Bought from spell merchants rather than blacksmiths, who will not stock a staff at all. The selection is random and level dependent, and this one enters the pool at level 22.
  • Found in random loot, and carried by mages and necromancers of the appropriate school.
  • The court wizard in each hold and the College of Winterhold are the most reliable places to check.
  • Turn Undead has a magnitude of 13, not 8; see the spell page for a discussion of this effect's lack of a stagger magnitude above 0.
