Never has a device so simple had such power. Despite the extremely basic design and low, low cost, a person with a quarterstaff is actually very well armed. A quarterstaff can be used with no skill exactly as its shorter cousin, the club. But in the hands of a skillful user, the quarterstaff is a double weapon, attacking as two clubs, and the more skill the user has, the more dangerous this simple stick gets. And as if that weren't enough, the quarterstaff can also be used by monks, who can show you how to really use a fallen tree branch. The Quarterstaff belongs to the "Double" and "Monk" weapon groups.
