  • 1 of 5: In the cave, keep going NE until you reach the northern-most cave room.
  • 2 of 5: Look for the stolen goblin totem staff lying on the floor next to a small fire.
  • 3 of 5: Note that it's a valuable and usable magic staff that can cast a fairly powerful Shock Damage spell.
  • 4 of 5: TIP: If you can kill the goblin shaman and all her guards, you can steal their totem, too.
  • 5 of 5: When you return to the Crestbridge Camp, talk to Mirisa first to learn that you can have some fun with goblin totems.
