Oaken staff
The oaken staff, also known as the oak staff, is a recurring weapon in the Dragon Quest series. It's the weapon the Hero from Dragon Quest V is seen wielding in his official artwork. It has gone on to become the most basic wand for spellcasters.

Trivia edit
- The official art for the Hero of Dragon Quest V depicts him with this staff. This is the only time the protagonist of a numbered entry in the series is illustrated without a sword as his weapon, and is a subtle allusion to the true identity of V's legendary hero.
