Lightning Spear (雷の槍) is a miracle in Dark Souls.

In-Game Description

Miracle passed down to those bound by the Warrior of Sunlight covenant. Hurl Lightning spear.
Lightning spears inflict rare lightning damage, and are very effective against magic, fire, and most of all, dragons.

Availability[]

Lightning Spear is obtained through joining the Warrior of Sunlight covenant. Only one copy of Lightning Spear (and its variants) may be obtained, regardless of playthrough.

General information[]

It has a lightning attack power equal to 2.7 times the talisman's magic adjust.

Lightning Spear is one of the few offensive miracles and also one of the only spells that inflict lightning damage. It features a long casting time, pin-point accuracy, and a very long effective range (a good deal longer than lock-on range, although manual aiming can be tricky).

As with most other miracles, Lightning Spear scales with Faith and the type of Talisman it is cast by. Throwing Lightning Spear and its variants into water will cause lightning damage to radiate from the point of impact.

Overview[]

Lightning Spear is a good long-range way of greeting enemies. It deals respectable damage and can be used often thanks to its generous amount of uses. Lightning Spear deals lightning damage, which helps diversify the types of damage a player can deal.

In PvP, Lightning Spear is risky to use due to its long casting time and its lack of AoE damage without hitting a body of water which aren't very abundant. However, it deals good damage if it connects due to the lower lightning resistance most players possess. In any situation, Great Lightning Spear is superior due to its greater damage and no drawbacks.

誓約「太陽の戦士」を交わした者に伝えられる奇跡 雷の槍を投げる
雷の槍は珍しい雷属性の攻撃力を持つため 魔法や炎に強い対象にも有効となる 特に竜族には、大きな威力を発揮するだろう

In-Game Description

Miracle granted to those who made a Vow to the Warriors of the Sun. Throw a lightning spear.
The Lightning Spear deals damage of the unique lightning attribute. Effective against targets resistant to magic and fire. Particularly powerful against the race of the dragons.

Notes[]

Using a bow or binoculars' zoom-in feature to manually aim slightly to the left of a stationary target and then using lightning spear can ensure accuracy against targets not within lock-on range. Bows are more useful for the task as their zoom-in has a crosshair.
