Spear discussion thread (Best subclass in the game!)

If Zenith wasn't in 'other', I would classify it as a boomerang instead of a sword.

You have convinced me spears arent usless they are kinda cool

 

[Meowlegend]

the wiki classifies weapons by their code rather than name or functionality。 the daybreak and starlight are not really similar in code compared to other swords and spears， instead， falling into the broader "projectile melee" category （different from projectile swords！ it means any melee weapon that is only the projectile， like the flying knife or arkhalis。） they are just in the "other" section because the wiki splits weapons into the stricter subclass categories， but they are not technically considered part of one。 although the game calls them swords/spears and they function similarly to them， they are grouped in the wiki by commonalities in code， probably to avoid confusion and/or the need to add too many weapon subgroups。

Yep, its understandable now

I have looked at it. It's a neat mod that fixes certain progression gaps. I don't remember how good the spears were against the pre mech bosses and queen slime, but I remember that it was hard to get the North pole with the Chlorophyte partisan using that mod.

One related to the moon health clots would be cool

From my modded spear ideas?

Yeah

 

[Lancer of hatred]

Yeah

Well, from my planned mod for Moon lord, you will have an Empress of light spear drop and a martian saucer spear drop.

There are other post Plantera spears you could use, but they might be less efficient than the other spears.
