How to Target Farm Rod of Kepeleke

Rod of Kepeleke Farming Methods
Farm Echo of Duriel and Echo of Andariel Trade Obols for Quarterstaffs Use the Unique Tribute in the Undercity

Farm Echo of Duriel and Echo of Andariel

Rod of Kepeleke Bosses	Location and Summoning Materials
Echo of Duriel	Location: Gaping Crevasse, Kehjistan Summoning Materials: ・ Mucus-Slick Egg x2 ・ Shard of Agony x2
Echo of Andariel	Location: Hanged Man's Hall, Kehjistan Summoning Materials: ・ Sandscorched Shackle x2 ・ Pincushioned Doll x2

Farming Duriel, Maggot King and Andariel, Maiden of Anguish is one of the most reliable way to obtain the Rod of Kepeleke as both of these Uber Bosses include this Unique Quarterstaff in their Drop Tables.

Therefore, each time they drop a guaranteed Unique Item, there is roughly a 1/8 or ~13% chance that it will be the Rod of Kepeleke. To increase your chances, defeat these bosses on higher Torment difficulties for more Unique drops.

Use Seething Opals of Torment to Get Summoning Materials

To summon Uber Bosses like Duriel and Andariel, you'll need specific materials. The Seething Opal of Torment can be used while doing other content to help you out gather the necessary materials for summoning these bosses or the Ladder Bosses.

Use the Party Finder to Share Summoning Materials

The Party Finder feature can help you team up with other players to farm Uber Bosses and gather summoning materials faster. By pooling resources, you can farm Echo of Duriel, Echo of Andariel, and other Lair Bosses more efficiently, speeding up your hunt for the Rod of Kepeleke.

How to Use the Party Finder Feature

Trade Obols for Quarterstaffs

The next best method to farm for the Rod of Kepeleke is by trading Murmuring Obols for Quarterstaffs at the Purveyor of Curiosity. While the Quarterstaff you receive will have random quality, it's not uncommon to get a Unique Item from this method. Since there are only two Unique Quarterstaffs in the game, it is likely you'll get the Rod of Kepeleke through this method compared to other Uniques.

How to Farm Obols

Farm Obols in the Pit of the Artificer

Clearing higher tiers of the Pit of the Artificer allows you to quickly farm large amounts of Murmuring Obols. This is an excellent way to gather Obols to trade for Quarterstaffs and possibly get the Rod of Kepeleke.

Allocate the Urn of Curiosities Seasonal Blessing

If you're planning to trade a significant amount of Murmuring Obols, it's highly recommended to invest in the Urn of Curiosities Seasonal Blessing. This blessing gives you a chance to receive an additional item when trading with the Purveyor of Curiosities, effectively increasing your chances of obtaining the Rod of Kepeleke.

Use the Unique Tribute in the Undercity

In the Kurast Undercity, you can use the Unique Tribute which rewards multiple Unique Items upon successfully clearing Kurast Undercity. While the Unique rewards are random, this is a fairly reliable method for farming the Rod of Kepeleke.
