Bane Archistaff, featured in Dragon's Dogma 2, is a weapon tailored for Sorcerers. Infused with dragon miasma, it requires skilled wielders to use its power effectively. Featuring mighty physical and magical capabilities, it also possesses a powerful knockdown effect. This weapon is not dropped by enemies and can be purchased from merchants.
An archistaff infused with the miasma of a dragon that lived on after death, fueled by hatred. Only those fit to endure its oppressive aura may wield it.

Smithing Upgrade Guide
Every weapon can be enhanced three times at an armoury or smithy, each time for gold and the materials listed below, and a fourth time with Wyrmfire. Any armoury or smithy works on weapons and armour alike. Each smith works in one style, and you can mix styles from one level to the next.
- Vermundian raises every attribute moderately. Armouries and smithies in Vermund offer it, such as Roderick's Smithy and Bjorn's Armory in Vernworth.
- Elven raises Magick and Magick Defense greatly, Strength and Defense only a little. Grisha's Armory in Sacred Arbor offers it.
- Battahli raises Strength and Defense greatly, Magick and Magick Defense only a little. Armouries in Battahl offer it, such as Awaran's Arms and Bodas's Armory in Bakbattahl.
- Dwarven raises Knockdown Power and Knockdown Resistance. Sara at Brokkr's Smithy offers it after Steeled Resolve, Blazing Forge, and Gautstafr after Put a Spring in Thy Step.
- Wyrmfire halves the weight and gives a further boost once the first three enhancements are done. The Dragonforged at Bay Wayside Shrine takes payment in Wyrmslife Crystals instead of gold.
The tables below give the cost, materials and result of every level for each style.
Taking Bane Archistaff to level 3 costs 22,560 G in all, whichever style you choose. Elven smithing gives it the most Magick at level 3 (517), while Dwarven gives the most Knockdown Power (175). Wyrmfire then costs 15 Wyrmslife Crystals.
