The Hellish Staff of Herding was a craftable staff in Diablo III. It was needed to access Whimsyshire on Hell difficulty. As of version 2.0, any version of the Staff of Herding will grant the player access to Whimsyshire on any difficulty, so it is no longer necessary nor possible to upgrade the staff.
It has an Item Level of 1, and requires character level 1 to be used.

Upgraded versions of the plans could be bought from Gorell the Quartermaster beside the Armory in Bastion's Keep Stronghold. Once again, it could be bought only in the Prime Evil quest, just like its predecessor
