Magic Damage Weapon

This weapon's attacks also deal Magic damage making it a good option against enemies or bosses with low Magic resistance. It has the default moveset for spears with fast thrusting normal attacks that can stun-lock weaker targets. Pair it with the Rotten Winged Sword Insignia to enhance the damage of your successive attacks.

The Death Ritual Spear has a shares the same strong attack animation with the Partisan and Spiked Spear. It performs wide slashes instead of the default thrust attacks.

Weapon Skill Deals AoE Damage from Range

This weapon cannot be infused with Ashes of War and is equipped with the Spearcall Ritual Weapon weapon skill by default. When activated it summons spectral spears that fall from the sky in a wide area. It has a long range and can deal great damage to multiple enemies within its radius.

Keep in mind that the skill takes a bit of time to cast and will leave you open to attacks. It is also a bit challenging to use against agile and aggressive enemies since they can easily avoid the attack.
