TheWoWDBDespite what your tool-tip might tell you in-game, only animals that have "ravenous" in their name will work to charge the lodestaff. Remember to use the item in your inventory to charge each one you kill. Annoyingly, it won't do a mass charging on group kills. Watch for the item to highlight as you click on each kill that has yet to be used to charge the staff.

Hungering Mites work too, as advertised by their nameplates.
Look out for people skinning them before you can use the staff.

Description
Normally we would infuse the Lodestaff with energy from the Netherstar, another relic of note. Regrettably, that is not an option. But, in a pinch, anima is an acceptable substitute. Take the Lodestaff. Brandish it near recently slain devourers in the estuary below us. The staff should draw in and absorb their anima.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Sundered Staff
I have no choice but to trust you with the secrets of the Lodestaff. In the right hands, such as those of a trained Archivist, the staff can locate influential relics from the afterlives of the Shadowlands. It was split into three segments to ensure that it would not fall into the wrong hands.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Consulting the Experts
We can restore the functions of the Lodestaff, but it will require the wisdom of the Archivists. Not just me, but the Archivists who have come before. They were laid to rest near here.
