The '''bamboo lance''' is a recurring [[Spear Weapon Family|spear]] in the {{DQSeries}}. It is a simple weapon made from a length of bamboo cut diagonally at the end into a sharp point, with that stabbing edge being the only feature to differentiate it from the [[laundry pole]].

This lance is often the weakest weapon of its type and can be purchased from the weapon shops in many early-game villages. It is long enough to be wielded in both hands and has a simple cloth grip at the base. Naturally, these lances are the favoured weapons of [[bambooligan]]s.
