Charge and Release
The Spear is unique among Vanilla Armory weapons because it can be thrown at distant targets. To throw, hold down your attack button (right-click by default) to charge the weapon. As you charge, you'll see a visual indicator building up. Release when ready to launch the spear at your target.
Effective Throwing Tactics
Thrown spears deal significant damage and are useful for engaging enemies from range without closing distance. This makes the Spear versatile—use it for melee combat when enemies are close, then switch to throwing when you need space. The throw is particularly effective against flying mobs or enemies on elevated terrain.
Recovery and Retrieval
After throwing, your spear will land and remain in the world. You can pick it up and throw again, or switch to melee combat while waiting. The weapon still takes durability damage from throws, so manage your durability carefully during extended ranged engagements.
Combine Melee and Ranged
The Spear's versatility makes it excellent for hybrid combat. Throw at approaching enemies to soften them up, then switch to melee when they close in. This flexibility gives you tactical options other weapons can't match.
