“A foreboding staff bearing engravings of Hive runes and bound with mystical charms.”
With the start of the Season of the Witch, players are now thrown into a new fray where they must use magic to find a way to complete their bargain with Savathun.
Savathun will provide a way to defeat The Witness but only if the Guardians can take out Xivu Arath, which requires more power to be obtained.
Through the use of the Acolyte’s Staff, the Guardians will be able to manifest the power provided after they have accessed Savathun’s Spire.
How To Get Season of the Witch Artifact? (The Acolyte’s Staff)
The Acolyte’s Staff is given to players once they start the Season of the Witch, which appears during the Way of the Witch Mission.
Once the Acolyte’s Staff has been obtained, it will permanently be in the Guardian’s inventory until the end of the season.
How To Level Up Acolyte’s Staff?
The Acolyte’s Staff gains a drip of the XP that you obtain, which later allows it to level up to provide you with certain bonuses throughout the season.
You will obtain Bonus Power Levels along with Mods that can be utilized to improve your builds, which should help you complete activities and progress with the story.
As long as you continue to earn XP throughout the Season of the Witch, the Acolyte’s Staff will also obtain XP and this will result in it leveling up.
