Notes

  • As implied in the description of Absolute Night, this Spear deals extra damage to spiders, spider-like enemies, spectators and other creatures with many eyes. This only functions on melee attacks - Thrown weapon hits will not trigger this bonus.
  • Likewise, the ability to blind opponents will not function when this spear is thrown.

Concentration Icons.png Spoiler warning! This section reveals details about the story of Baldur's Gate 3.

  • Despite being themed around the Absolute, the spear doesn't seem to have any interactions with the Brand of the Absolute.
  • The spear's specialty of dealing additional damage to spiders seems consistent with the positioning of the Absolute as a deific figure in opposition to Lolth, the Drow Queen of Spiders.
