Underground desert sandstone chests and electric shock bolts

Found inside Sandstone Chests within the subterranean Underground Desert or obtained by fishing Oasis Crates, the Storm Spear elevates traditional spear combat. In addition to extending a physical spearhead for 14 melee damage, each thrust fires an electrical spark projectile from its tip. The electric projectile passes freely through water bodies without losing momentum or visual clarity. This projectile flies forward without consuming mana or ammunition, providing both piercing melee reach and ranged coverage.

Defensive reach advantages and godly reforge

Operating at an 28 use time with Average cadence, the spear delivers 6 knockback, holding charging antlions and tomb crawlers at bay. The bonus electric projectile doubles total damage output if both the physical tip and the shock spark hit an approaching enemy simultaneously. It outperforms standard metal spears like the iron spear when clearing narrow subterranean corridors. Because spears cannot obtain swing size prefixes, Godly serves as the optimal modifier to boost damage, critical strike chance, and knockback.

Trivia

  • The spark projectile emitted by the spear passes through spider webs without slowing down its flight speed.
