Crafting[]

The Staff of Herding can be crafted using the Plan: Staff of Herding which requires:

On console, only 5,000 gold is needed and Leoric's Shinbone and the Liquid Rainbow are not required for crafting the staff. The plans for this staff drop randomly from Izual in any difficulty mode.

Use[]

The Staff can be used to access Whimsyshire at The Cow King's Grave on Old Tristram Road. It simply needs to be in the inventory, not equipped, and it is not consumed on entry to Whimsyshire.

The grave is west of the The Old Ruins waypoint in Act I. It can also be reached from the New Tristram front gates, but the path is longer. A glowing reddish crevice with cow bones next to it signifies the Cow King's Grave. The Ghost of The Cow King will appear if the Staff is present. After speaking to him, the big crevice will start glowing rainbow colors instead of just red, and entering it leads to Whimsyshire. Adventure Awaits....
