Splitnir the Primal is the Jade variant, with poison on the point and a decent chance of rooting whatever it hits. That is what you want when a Charred Warrior needs to stay still for a moment. It deals 135 pierce and 10 poison, 145 across all types, the same total as Splitnir the Storming. Its materials come from the Ashlands, and it is made at a Black Forge. In the Ashlands, Fader and Morgen both resist pierce but not poison, so the poison reaches them in full, though it is a small share of the damage. Pierce and poison damage also hurts Cultists, Ticks and Trolls more than most things.

How to Craft


Made at a level 4 black forge, from:

  • 1x Splitnir: Made at a black forge.
  • 6x Flametal: Smelted from flametal ore in a blast furnace.
  • 1x Jade: Found in the charred fortresses of the Ashlands.

When to Use It


Late game. Flametal is found in the Ashlands, the furthest south the map goes.

Upgrades


It can be upgraded 3 times after crafting, and each level needs the station built one step higher than the last. Every other figure on this page is for quality 1, so this table shows where your own copy sits:

Quality Crafting Station Pierce Poison Durability Resources
1 Black forge (Level 4) 135 10 100
2 Black forge (Level 5) 141 10 150
3 Black forge (Level 6) 147 10 200
4 Black forge (Level 7) 153 10 250

Splitnir the Storming Splitnir the Storming 135 Pierce - Iolite spawn SpearSplitner_Lightning

Properties


It brings 10 poison and a 20% immobilise. Jade adds a 20% chance to immobilise for 10 seconds, which stops movement and turning but not attacking. On a 0.68-second poke, that chance comes up often.

Hold it still and throw. An immobilised target cannot close the distance, and the secondary throw deals 1.5x from wherever you have backed off to. The poison itself is nearly wasted, because so many creatures are immune.

Notes


  • A spear throw takes 1.04 seconds from start to finish.
  • Thrown spears float, so a spear thrown at a Serpent can be picked up again instead of sinking.
  • Each primary attack steps forward only 0.33 meters, less than any other melee weapon type, so it rarely carries the player into a second enemy.
  • Upgrades raise only its pierce damage, from 135 to 153, while its poison damage stays at 10 at every quality level.
