Minecraft:Netherite Spear

A netherite spear is a late-game variant of Minecraft:spear obtained by upgrading a Minecraft:diamond spear using a Minecraft:netherite ingot and Minecraft:netherite upgrade at a Minecraft:smithing table. It can be used to perform slow jab attacks or held forward to deal increasing Minecraft:damage based on how quickly the wielder is moving. It is the highest Minecraft:tier of spear, dealing more damage and having higher durability than a Minecraft:diamond spear, at the cost of lower attack speed.

Obtaining

Usage

Attacking

Jab attack

A netherite spear can be Template:Control while standing on the ground to perform a jab attack, dealing damage, and afterwards entering a recharge cooldown similar to that of an ender pearl or chorus fruit on Bedrock Edition, or a version of the normal attack cooldown on Java Edition.

Charge attack

When holding down the Template:Control key, the spear is lowered into an attack position, where colliding with a target deals damage depending on the velocity of the user, and the attack dismounts attacked targets from their mounts. After being held out for too long, the charge attack goes into a shaking state where attacks no longer dismount targets from their mounts. After even longer, the charge attack goes into a dropped down state where attacks no longer deal knockback, but still deal full damage.
