Availability
Edit
Found in Irithyll of the Boreal Valley, in the darkened room located shortly past the graveyard behind the Church of Yorshka. Climb the ladder on the far-right and walk along the rafters until reaching the other end of the room. Drop down to an elevated platform with a chest that contains the weapon.
CharacteristicsEdit
An unassuming weapon, Yorshka's Spear can be a powerful tool in the right hands.
It is one of three spears that possesses sweeping attacks, the other two being the Partizan and Ringed Knight Spear. This gives it wide horizontal coverage that also has the bonus of inflicting Strike damage, which the vast majority of armor sets resist very poorly. The different timings on its strong attacks gives it versatility, making it hard to predict and dodge in PvP.
However, as it scales with three stats, it can be difficult to build this weapon to inflict optimal damage at lower levels. As well, unlike the other sweeping spears, its skill does not grant Hyper Armor, which further hampers its ability to threaten opponents.
What makes Yorshka's Spear so exceptional is that its skill, Pacify, grants it the ability to deplete the Focus Points of any target struck by the weapon. Combined with its ability to mix up attacks, strike from a distance and harass with running attacks, this allows it to threaten an opponent's ability to cast spells or perform weapon arts, something that no other weapon can do.
