Campaign Factions

After the Luxon hero Archemorus was killed by the Jade Wind, the Spear of Archemorus was made from his bones. It is part of the annual Convocation ritual, in which the Luxon clans fight for the right to wield the spear against Zhu Hanuku. Whether held or on the ground, its Spear of Archemorus effect gets charged to increasing levels by the deaths of nearby beings. This energy can then be released by dropping it in order to deal damage in a large area of effect.

Locations[edit]

Notes[edit]

  • Although technically fragile, a new version of the spear is instantly re-spawned upon dropping it, so you can't lose it in a mission.
  • Since the Spear gets charged by deaths within its range regardless of whether it is being held or not, it can still be used fairly effectively by someone more reliant on their held weapons. Simply drop it at the start of any combat for damage and a knockdown and then pick it up afterwards for reuse in the next battle.
  • If enough creatures die when fighting the Luxons at the beginning of Boreas Seabed, the Spear of Archemorus will use Archemorus' Strike to knock down and deal 300 damage to your party and allies. To avoid this, do not fight near the Spear of Archemorus.
