This item is no longer available in game.
Note that this does not have any Intellect, making it a very poor choice for casters.
Indeed. Despite the scythe's item level, casters will clearly see better performance from a dungeon blue. :(
I'm wondering who else uses staves, anyways, I'm sure this is around for xmog more than anything. Making it a very good choice for vain casters :)
The very first version of the staff - Burning Crusade-era - actually had spirit on it and, if I recall correctly, was fairly useful. (Not to progressed raiders, especially, but for dungeons and beginner raiding it was decent.) The Wrath version was serviceable, too, though slightly less. Cataclysm, less so. MoP, even less.
At this point, it may as well exist solely for transmogrification. I know Fury-spec Warriors are gleefully anticipating 5.4's change to Titan's Grip (ability to dual-wield polearms) which they plan to use in conjunction with their ability to transmog from polearms to staves.
