you probably didnt freeze the mesh, under the edit tab on the RIGHT panel (if you cant see it from a small resolution just right click on the transform and selection buttons to collapse them, theyre a darker gray than the rest of the panel) and with the model selected click on the freeze button, oh and before you do that click on the model and on the right panel click on transform>freeze all transforms.

you need to freeze the transforms of the staff before you freeze the object, click on transform>freeze all transforms, and the staff cant be linked to dummyroot when you do it.
