To get the Maternal Staff, progress significantly through Count Ymir‘s quest. When you reach the final stage of the quest, you must challenge Count Ymir and his knight, Jolan.

After you’ve defeated Count Ymir, he drops you the Maternal Staff, alongside his armor set. The weapon primarily scales with Intelligence and Arcane, and its scaling goes beyond the soft cap of 60 on both of those stats.
