Note: The Staff of the Great Beyond is only available if you own the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC.

Obtained by Trading Remembrance of Metyr, Mother of Fingers

The Staff of the Great Beyond can be obtained by beating Metyr, Mother of Fingers and securing their Remembrance. You can then turn in the Remembrance to Enia at the Roundtable Hold to get the Staff of the Great Beyond.

Metyr's boss room can only be reached by ringing the bell in the Finger Ruins of Miyr, underneath the Cathedral of Manus Metyr. You'll have to ring the first two bells in Ymir's questline and speak to him first before you can go underneath the Cathedral.
