The Dracomace is a Staff-class (not Mace-class) weapon found in Golden Sun: The Lost Age. It is acquired by finding a Rusty Staff in Islet Cave and bringing it to Sunshine the blacksmith in Yallam, where he will reforge it into the item. The Dracomace is bought for 10700 coins while its resale value is 7875 coins. Visually, the Dracomace resembles a rod with a billowing pink cloud around it of some sort.

The Dracomace carries a non-elemental attack rating of 128. This staff has the Unleash effect Aging Gas, which activates at a rate of 35% (which is standard) and converts the attack into a Jupiter-elemental attack with 45 extra attack points added, and the effect has a chance adding all of the damage done to the user's own HP. Aging Gas visually resembles the wielder projecting white clouds to enshroud the enemy much like the Fire Breath effect found on monsters.

The Dracomace, as a Staff-class item, can be wielded by Ivan, Mia, Jenna, and Sheba. The Dracomace is much like many other weapons that can be found during the extended expedition across the Great Eastern Sea in that it is very powerful and useful for when it can be first acquired, but it may not remain in the inventory all that long because sometime later there may be another weapon found that outclasses it. Being located in Islet Cave, this staff can only be acquired once you possess the Sand Psynergy found as a reward for completing Gaia Rock. The Dracomace's healing effect is quite effective at keeping its wielder alive through battles without using other recovery measures, so you should equip it on whichever Adept does not have a healing Psynergy (many players have Jenna with her Aura Psynergy series available, so you might equip it on Sheba in that case, but Djinn arrangement would be a heavy influence otherwise).
