Interactions with Royal Road:
==History==
* If used with the 150% potency effect - ability recast time is reduced by 30% instead of 20%.
*{{patch|7.0|
* If used with the Doubled Duration effect - the Spear will last for 40 seconds instead of 20.
** The effects of this action have been completely revamped.
* If used with the Extend effect - the Spear will affect all nearby party members but will only grant 10% reduction instead of 20%.
** Now increases damage dealt by a party member or self by 6% if target is ranged DPS or healer, or 3% for all other roles.
* Increases the critical hit rate for target and all nearby party members by 5% for 20 seconds
** Now interacts with {{action icon|Umbral Draw}} instead of {{action icon|Draw}}.
 
**"※Play I changes to The Spear when requirements for execution are met." has been added.
==Tips==
**"Grants a Celestial Sign when used in combat" and "Only one arcanum effect can be applied to a target at a time." have been removed.}}
The Spear's greatest use is not for the card's ability of shortening the action cast time, but instead, the [[Royal Road]] effect, and should usually only be used as such in its current status.
