Spear

The Spear is the most basic of all spears. It is found in Wooden Chests that are located on the surface as well as in the underground layer.

== Notes ==
* In worlds, the Spear can be found with the normally-incompatible Legendary modifier. The size boost will not take effect, though it is still the best modifier possible.
== Tips ==
* Out of all the spears, it is tied with the Obsidian Swordfish and for dealing the third most knockback (beaten by the Ghastly Glaive and North Pole).
* While stationary, it can hit a Zombie twice, and while walking towards it, three times – at 10–15 damage per stab, compared to just 4 damage with a Wooden Sword.
* It can hold back multiple Eaters of Souls or Crimera at once, and can be useful when traveling through the Corruption or the Crimson.
* It is useful in early-game for the first enemies that are encountered like Demon Eyes, since it can hold them back with knockback. Opening a door or standing by an entrance while using it can hold back Zombies and Demon Eyes, and can be useful surviving the first few nights before getting better weapons.
== Trivia ==
* It cannot be obtained from Wooden Crates, despite the fact that many other similarly rare items found in Wooden Chests can.
