The Azoth staff is one of the necessary items in New World if you want to start expeditions and various events. Our guide tells you how to get one, how to use it & how to upgrade it to Tier 5.
This is the Azoth Staff: The Azoth Staff is the emblem and tool of the anointed soulwarden with which you can destroy corrupted portals, breaches, and monoliths. These are random events that can vary in difficulty.
How to prepare: To complete the quest in one go, you need a few items:
To get the Azoth Staff, you must follow your main story quest until you are sent to the west of Windsward. There you have to complete all quests of the hermit angler “Yonas the Hermit”.
However, you shouldn't rush this series of quests and continue leveling until you reach level 20.
This happens in the quest series: The quest series from Yonas then leads you through all of Aeturnum. You must defeat many opponents, collect objects, and craft items—typical New World Quest design. At the end of the row, you must fight against the level 20 Forgemaster Ezra at the Amrine Temple to forge the Azoth staff on the shattered obelisk.
Yonas sends you to the quest giver Adiana Theron, where you must complete further quests for the time being. She will send you to the neighboring Canary Mine to fight the corruption blocking her Azoth Fountain. You have to kill 3 Corrupted Tendrils that deal enormous damage and 2 Clotting Carapaces—red and black objects that you find in the mine and explode when dead.
In this quest, you must get 3x water, Petalcap, and Rivercress Stem. It is best to find in the First Light area. Then you create the Corrupted Tincture 3 times at an Arcane Repository. Then take the tinctures back to Adriana.
Yonas sends you to Windsward, more precisely to the Amrine Temple east of the city. You are supposed to make the second part of the staff with 5 Silver Ingots. But watch out, the Forge at the temple is guarded by The Forgemaster Ezra, a mini-boss.
Southeast of the city of Everfall you will find the Shattered Obelisk. Enter the Obelisk from the south entrance and connect the two halves of the staff to form the Azoth Staff. Then return to Yonas the Hermit to hand in the quest.

You need to progress in the main storyline to upgrade your Azoth Staff from Tier I to Tier V. Here are the Quest lines that will unlock each upgrade for your Azoth Staff:
This is what the staff is good for: You equip the Azoth staff in an extra slot in your inventory and unlock the expeditions immediately after. Corrupted portals, corruption breaches, and monoliths, that appear randomly in the game world and are marked with red dots on the map, can be closed with the Azoth staff. Closing them brings a lot of experience points. This gives you good equipment, Amrine Tuning Orbs, and Azoth, which you, in turn, need to improve items during crafting, reset your weapon skills from level 20, and for the fast travel function.
These are the expeditions: The first expedition, which you should enter at level 25, is also in Windward, more precisely north of the main settlement of the Area. To enter an expedition, you require the Amrine Tuning Orbs from the corrupted events. However, only one person in the entire group requires using this orb to open the entrance.
