Gungnir

The Gungnir is the strongest, largest, and fastest spear in the PC version of the game and is only rivaled by the Tonbogiri in the console version. It has an unusually large size for a melee weapon, and can hit enemies from distances comparable to that of a Wooden Boomerang. It can deliver 3 to 4 hits per use. Like all Hallowed Melee weapons, when wielded it emits a good deal of its own light and a sparkle effect. It is part of the Hallowed set of Armor/Weapons.

Like all Spears, the Gungnir's best possible Modifier is Godly. It cannot obtain the Legendary Modifier.
