Type

Lance

First game

Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade

The Heavy Spear (Japanese: 貫きの槍 Piercing Lance) is a lance introduced in Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade. It is designed to pierce heavy armor and is very effective against Knights, Generals and similar heavily-armored classes. However, it is also extremely heavy to the point of being the heaviest lance in every game in which it appears, slowing down its wielder significantly if they have insufficient constitution or strength.
