Apocalypse Staff
Apocalypse Staff is weapon 27 of 30 for the Mage, and it drops in Old Kethotum, Burning Kethotum, Kanturu Underground.
Lore
The Apocalypse Staff was born of the same prophecy that gave rise to the Apocalypse Sword. The prophets asked the mages for a staff able to endure the end of the world, and they shaped it from volcanic stone, hard as an oath and always warm to the touch.
In the ravaged lands, the Mage finally understands why it was made, and why the prophets were so afraid. It falls from the Old Crimson Harpy, boss of Old Kethotum, and from the hordes of Burning Kethotum and Kanturu Underground.

Forging and refining
At the Blacksmith, Upgrade tab, the item goes from +0 to +6 with Jewel of Bless (PT) (always succeeds) and from +6 to +15 with Jewel of Soul (the chance drops at each level; on failure it loses 1 level, never below +6). Each + multiplies the whole piece (+15 makes it 3.23 times stronger). From +16 to +25 is the Ancestral Upgrade (PT), which burns Ancient items. In the Migrate tab, the whole + carries over to the Nightmare or Godlike version of the same item.
