Spear

The Spear is a spear-type weapon found in surface Chests. It deals 8 damage and has a listed speed of Very Slow.

The Spear has a bit smaller range than the Phaseblade and acts like the Vilethorn where it is possible to do damage to the same monster more than once every attack. With longer range than other similar weapons like the Wooden Sword, more knockback, and the ability to hit enemies multiple times, it is highly recommended. In fact, while stationary, you can hit a zombie twice, and while walking towards it, you can hit it three times. This gives you 10-15 damage per stab, compared with four with a wooden sword.
