Overview
The Flame Spear is a two-handed weapon in Crimson Desert and the most powerful spear available in terms of raw damage. With 27 Attack Power, it hits harder than every other two-handed weapon by a wide margin. It also carries a Fire Affinity, meaning its attacks deal fire-based elemental damage, and it comes with a Critical Rate Lv.1 bonus for a chance to land critical hits.
At 27 Attack Power, the Flame Spear outclasses the next closest two-handed weapon by 7 points, which is a massive gap. Combined with fire elemental damage and a crit bonus, this is an endgame-caliber weapon that can melt through enemies and bosses alike. The fire affinity is particularly effective against enemies vulnerable to elemental damage.

How to Obtain
The exact acquisition method for the Flame Spear is still being confirmed by the community. Given its exceptional stats, it is likely obtained through a late-game quest, boss drop, or advanced crafting recipe. Its sell price of 4.94 Silver Coins suggests it is a high-value weapon not intended as an early-game pickup.
If the Flame Spear follows the pattern of other craftable spears, it would require a visit to a blacksmith with higher-tier materials than the standard Iron Ore and Copper Ore used for basic two-handed weapons.
Fire Affinity
The Flame Spear is one of the few weapons in Crimson Desert that carries an elemental affinity. Fire damage adds a layer of effectiveness beyond raw attack numbers. Enemies with elemental weaknesses take extra damage from fire attacks, and certain boss encounters become significantly easier when you bring the right element.
Fire damage may also apply burning effects or additional damage-over-time, though the exact mechanics depend on the enemy type and encounter. Against standard enemies, the sheer Attack Power of 27 is usually enough to finish fights quickly regardless of elemental bonuses.
Combat Tips
With the highest base Attack Power of any two-handed weapon, the Flame Spear turns every swing into a heavy hit. The spear's natural reach advantage keeps enemies at a distance, and the fire affinity adds damage that standard weapons cannot match. Use thrust attacks to maintain spacing, and commit to heavy attacks when bosses are staggered or recovering.
The Critical Rate Lv.1 bonus means some of those already-powerful attacks will randomly deal even more damage. Over a long boss fight, a few well-timed critical hits with 27 base Attack Power can shave off significant chunks of a health bar. Stack critical-oriented cores in the 5 available slots to push the critical hit frequency higher, and the Flame Spear becomes one of the most damaging weapons in the game for sustained fights.

The Flame Spear sits well above every other spear in terms of raw output. The Bamboo Spear is the next closest competitor, offering dual secondary bonuses but 7 fewer points of Attack Power. For players who have access to the Flame Spear, it is the clear top choice for spear-focused builds.
