Spear is the combat skill to wield a Spear, a melee weapon. Ogre, Human and Elf Explorers may begin the game with basic knowledge of this skill. Other might-oriented characters can pick up the skill quickly enough, but player characters of the magic-oriented classes are unable to learn it.

Description

Spear covers all kinds of pole weapons with blades attached to the business end. Spears are versatile and can be used one-handed at master rank (right hand only), but they do more damage when used with both hands. Grandmaster spearmen gain the ability to defend themselves better, using the spear as a staff.

Technical notes

  • Spears are always used two-handed if the left hand is empty, for an additional damage of 1D9.

The Spear skill can be acquired at the following guilds:
