Vision of the Absolute image

Vision of the Absolute is an uncommon special variant of the Spears family of weapons. It is a simple melee weapon that can be wielded in one hand, or with both hands for extra damage. Its design lends itself well to be thrown at enemies as a projectile. Its design doesn't lend itself to be dual-wielded, even by those with special training in dual-wielding.

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.
    • Some tests indicate that this weapon does not do extra damage to spiders.[Needs Verification]

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

This is consistent with the positioning of Absolute in Baldur's Gate 3 as a deific figure in opposition to Lolth, the Drow Queen of Spiders.
