It contains rainbow ponies. One of the mats for the staff is "Liquid Rainbow" do you honestly think that Liquid rainbow could be used on anything else in the Diablo universe? Doesn't really fit in Besides this item is very special, white item for 50k, binds to account, "Staff of herding" come on, it's the cow level yo. | ||

The guy doesnt even know how to get all the materials and he doesnt know how to use the staff, if it even is the staff that opens the secret level. | ||

If you didn't believe this was an easter egg related to the cow level, even before the video came out, you never played D2, or you don't know Bliz's sense of humor. =P | ||

Earlier in the development cycle quite a few people were complaining that it wasn't dark enough, and that Diablo was too colourful etc. I believe there is even a mod made by someone that tones down the colours and brings out more of the darker colours. So that's where the joke comes from. | ||

There's nothing special or hard about that. It's obvious that the staff is linked to something special, but it is not a cow level, (one can't even assume it's a level at all without knowing the fact that it actually is for one) and it's also not necessarily the only thing you need to do to get to the level WAY TOO MUCH assumption and way too much over-blowing of what was going on. The guy just found a recipe that says everything he needed to get the staff — he didn't need to work at all to find out what ingredients he needed. | ||

To address that and to elaborate more on what I said: all a person needs to do is find that recipe/plan, then find people who have the other items, then know where to go after crafting the item.

One can't easily have secrets in this day and age of the internet. The title of the video is inaccurate too if you're referring to where I was saying it wasn't a cow level. It isn't a cow level. | ||

Found the mushroom in act 1 on one of the cathedral floors in a patch of mushrooms. Besides these two I haven't found any other reagents (besides Writs Bell) Oh and all the reagents are account bound, meaning they cannot be traded or sold between players. | ||

I'm level 33 and I gathered all 6 objects (As well as the 100 000 grand for wirts bell) in one afternoon. I'm currently just short of the crafting price (you need 50 000 and I'm currently on 30 000). If you just know where to look for each thing it's not too troublesome. Though if you are going at it blind it could take you a good while. Btw 100000 grand is 100 million =D To generate the staff of herding, there's only nightmarish, hellish and infernal plans. Does that mean that the secret (name favorite animal here) level is only available in these 3 difficulties and not normal? I must add that the items can be found on normal though. | ||

Yeah sorry, I meant bucks. I gathered all the items on normal as well as entered in act 1 normal. The monsters themselfs seem to be about one difficulty above what you currently are. If you enter it in normal the level will be about as difficulty as early nightmarish. I assume the same will be the case for higher difficulty so it will scale above the difficulty you are playing. | ||

The recipe you buy in act 4 is to upgrade the staff to the next difficulty. "Nightmarish staff of herding" requires a staff of herding and 200k for example so you will still need to farm the recipe off Izual as well as all the other ingredients. It is a good way to get the blacksmith achievement for teaching your blacksmith a recipe since it only costs one gold though :0 | ||

Might have been just luck but Idk. Also, the boss that drops it was hidden a bit off of the main path. | ||

That is a link to the video that shows what the level actually looks like. It is quite amusing and was a nice way to spend an hour or so getting the materials needed to gain access to the level. Apparently the inferno version of the level has quite good gear. This run was on the normal version of Whimseyshire, which is equivalent to Nightmare monster difficulty roughly. | ||

In Diablo 2, there was a very long stretch of time (before certain patches), where it was extremely valuable to farm or level in the secret cow level in hell mode. Rushing was also common so that a high lvl player beat the game for a low level player so that the low level player can enter the cow level. It was usually possible to go from lvl 5 to lvl 20 in 1 cow run (~10 minutes). | ||

You might have dropped the staff? It's easy to drop if you're switching gear in and out / dropping white items you accidently pick up >< | ||

Although they shouldn't, this is an insult to the greatness the cow level was. Sure they were cows, but the level was very much in D2 style. This.. thing.. they put in now on the other hand, *shudders*. | ||
