Umpara’s Spear is the best in Avowed due to its passive Crit Hit Damage, especially when combined with skills like Critical Strike and Devastating Criticals. Wayfinder is also a good alternative for the best spear, but it can only be obtained in the last region, the Garden, when you are cut off from access from the content of all other regions, making it not really the best pick overall.

Before being able to pick up Umpara’s Spear, we recommend using the normal Spear then Giant’s Slumber, since Giant’s Slumber deals bonus damage to Vessels and you can pick it up right before Shatterscarp—where a lot of the enemies you face for the main story are Vessels.

Spear How to Get and Explanation
1 Spear IconSpear How to Get: Can be obtained during the tutorial.
A spear can be picked up upon first spawning into the game when playing as a War Hero.
2 Spear IconSpear How to Get: Upgrade your Common Spear or purchase it from the Premium Protection merchant in Paradis.
You can get a Fine Spear more easily by picking up any other Fine quality weapon in Dawnshore and then buying a Fine Spear from a merchant.
3 Giant’s Slumber IconGiant’s Slumber How to Get: Picked up in Naku Tedek, Emerald Stair during the quest Ancient Soil.
It is recommended you pick up any Exceptional Weapon within Emerald Stair first before picking this up to ensure it is also Exceptional quality.
4 Umpara’s Spear IconUmpara’s Spear How to Get: Give Keipo the Heart of Leviathan during the side quest Heart of Valor in Thirdborn, Shatterscarp.
Umpara's Spear can be obtained as a reward from a straightforward quest. Upgrade it to Superb if you obtain it at Exceptional quality or pick up any other Superb quality weapon to automatically get it in Superb Quality.
5 Wayfinder IconWayfinder How to Get: Obtained in The Garden.
This can be found in The Garden, the final area of the game and a point of no return.

Get a Free Exceptional Weapon First Before Getting Giant's Slumber

If you want the Giant's Slumber you pick up to be Exceptional quality, make sure to first pick up the free Exceptional Greatsword in the Delemgan Glade, since uniques scale in quality with your currently equipped weapons.

Head west all the way to Delemgan Glade to get a guaranteed Exceptional Great Sword from a purple chest. Once you have it, you can get the Giant's Slumber in Naku Tedek.
