The Spear of Destiny is a craftable Hardmode javelin. When used, it alternates between throwing 3 small homing spears and 1 piercing lance which deals 300% base damage, but loses 10% damage on each hit. Small spears have 2 extra updates, but lose 20% damage on each hit.

Performing a stealth strike with the Spear of Destiny will throw a high-velocity holy lance that explodes on enemy hits, dealing 420% of the weapon's damage.

Its best modifier is Flawless.

Notes

  • The homing of the spear is so strong that it will often return to hit the same enemy again after piercing once.

Trivia

  • The Spear of Destiny is another name for the Holy Lance, a biblical artifact in Judaic and Christian religions.
