The Spear with Stone Head is a two-handed primitive spear tipped with a stone blade. It trains the Spear skill. Its head and shaft come from stone and wood, which suits a survivor living off the land.
Its damage sits in the middle of the spear class. It is one of the lightest spears, and the stone tip wears at a moderate pace. The Spear with Stone Head is never found as loot. It is crafted from a Stone Blade or a Stone Knife and a Long Stick or a Sapling.
Combat
The Spear with Stone Head strikes from a long reach, so a zombie can be hit before it grabs. The crit chance starts at 20 percent, and a crit multiplies the damage five times. Both hands stay on the shaft.
Spears can stab a zombie through a fence, which turns a fence line into a safe place to fight. The spear suits a rural or wilderness start, far from towns and their metal tools.
The Spear skill raises attack speed, damage and crit chance as it levels. The Spear with Long Stone Head hits harder and reaches further for a little more weight. The Spear with Glass Head deals the same damage but breaks far sooner. The Spear with Metal Head matches the damage and weight and lasts much longer, but it needs a forged head.
Uses
The spear also works as a fishing spear, for catching fish in shallow water. Taking it apart with a hammer returns the Stone Blade and a broken shaft.

Repair
The Spear with Stone Head has 6 condition and loses a point on about 1 hit in 7. The Spear and Maintenance skills both lower that chance. It can be repaired with duct tape, adhesive tape, glue, zip ties, wood glue or epoxy. Zip ties need Maintenance 1, wood glue needs Carpentry 2, and epoxy needs Maintenance 3. Each repair restores less condition than the one before it.
Notes
- The spear can be bound with zip ties, leather strips or twine at Maintenance 1, with duct tape at any skill, or with wire and pliers at Maintenance 1.
- A Long Stick or a Sapling serves as the shaft.
- Either a Stone Blade or a Stone Knife makes the same spear.
- Researching the spear can teach the recipes for binding spears, making stone blades and carving a fleshing tool.
