Electric Spear

Electric Spears are a type of added in the Downpour DLC.

Utility
Electric Spears stun whatever they hit on impact. This effect is similar to the shock from, stunning most targets for seven seconds. A visual effect is emitted during impact, which looks similar to thrown s, but much less bright. The area of effect has a diameter of six tiles. Using an Electric Spear too many times (this randomly varies: on the low end, as few as 3; high end, up to at least 16) causes the spear to lose its charge and become inactive. Inactive electric spears can be found in treasuries, which can be charged by hitting a Centipede or by being hit by a 's shockwave.

Unlike other spears, Electric Spears can be damaged and destroyed by overuse and explosions.

Hitting an underwater creature with an Electric Spear will fully discharge it, but will also deal massive damage to any living thing in a large radius that's also in the water.

Trivia

 * Attempting to turn an electric spear into an explosive spear while playing artificer will fail and instead shock and stun you as if an electric spear had hit you.
