The Rose Staff is a Staff in Kid Icarus: Uprising. The staff looks like a plant with thorns that has three roses near the handle.

Idol description

The Rose Staff is the product of a desire to combine beauty and lethality. The brambles it fires have exceptional attack power but travel slowly. On the plus side, this weapon charges fast, compared to other staffs.

Trivia

• The Rose staff believed by some to be one of Viridi's weapons, as the Viridi Claws and the Viridi Palm are both plant-based.
