Dragon’s Dogma 2: Best Staves
Staves are the weapon that Mages – both Arisen and Pawns – will be able to use as a way to garner their magic prowess and deliver deadly magick and elemental attacks. Since they are essentially a stick, they can also wack your opponents in the head, so they will have a slight strike damage output if any enemy attempts to go melee with you.
As you might know, Mages are extremely important in a party thanks to their unique ability to heal you and your Pawns – it is the only Vocation that does. Not only that, but their variety of spells will deliver severe blows to single targets and groups of enemies, making it a must-have Vocation in your team.
And since no Staff is created equal, there are a lot of them you can find and purchase across Vernworth and Battahl. Here are six of the best Staves you will be able to find across Dragon’s Dogma 2:
Dragon’s Dogma 2: Best Staves List
| Weapon | Strength | Magick | Strike | Knockdown | Price | Location |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Goblin Bane | 280 | 220 | 100 | 131 | 25,000 G | Purchased at Awaran’s Arms, Bakbattahl or at Celeste’s Smithy, Checkpoint Rest Town |
| Solar Numen | 45 | 290 | 100 | 94 | 36,800 G | Purchased at Awaran’s Arms, Bakbattahl |
| Volant White | 85 | 345 | 100 | 99 | 45,600 G | Bought at Volcanic Island Armory, Volcanic Island |
| Necrotic Shriek | 75 | 395 | 100 | 105 | 58,000 G | Found at Roderick’s Smithy. Vernworth after finishing the game |
| Legion’s Might | 130 | 400 | 100 | 134 | – | Exchange 180 Seeker Tokens at any Guild Hall |
| Dragon’s Nous | 350 | 430 | 100 | 138 | 110 WC | Available at Bay Wayside Shrine by giving 110 Wyrmslife Crystals to The Dragonforged |
Out of all the ones above, there are a couple I think you can seriously think about for the mid-game. Goblin Bane and Solar Numen are great options for your Mage. However, given the boost in strength that the Goblin Game carries, I think you can give it a try. If you however, want to focus on sheer magick prowess, then Solar Numen is a great Staff to carry until you reach Volcanic Island.
Alternatively, if you are one of those players that like to find every single collectible and have a knack for collection Seeker Token, then the Legion’s Might could be a great end-game
I would suggest, however, that you save up your Wyrmslife Crystal – that is, defeat a lot of Drakes – to get the Dragon’s Nous after you finish the game and enter New Game Plus. I know it is a hard task to undertake, but just look at those stats! It is like an enhanced version of the Goblin Bane, which is a lot to say.
