Lightning Spear

Added Black Wall Bandit Camp location, upgrade path to Kuku Lightning Spear, and combat tips
The Lightning Spear is an Uncommon-grade two-handed spear in Crimson Desert. While modest in its base form with 6 Attack, this spear is notable because it can be upgraded into the significantly more powerful Kuku Lightning Spear at the Kilnden Workshop, making it an important stepping stone for spear-focused builds.
The base Lightning Spear is easy to obtain from the Black Wall Bandit Camp north of Pailune. Players who pick it up early should hold onto it rather than selling, as the upgraded Kuku version becomes one of the strongest lightning weapons in the game.

The Lightning Spear is found at the Black Wall Bandit Camp, located north of Pailune. Travel to the camp (look for it above the 'E' on the world map in the Pailune area). Head toward the back of the camp and find the weapon rack. The Lightning Spear is sitting on the rack, ready to be picked up.
There are no enemies to defeat or puzzles to solve. Simply walk up to the weapon rack and take the spear.
The Lightning Spear can be upgraded into the Kuku Lightning Spear at Grimnir's Kuku Pot workshop at the Kilnden Workshop. The upgrade transforms this basic weapon into a fully refinable spear with much higher endgame potential.
The Kuku Lightning Spear reaches 35 Attack at maximum refinement with Attack Speed Lv.1 and Movement Speed Lv.2. Unlike the base form, the upgraded version can be refined at a Blacksmith and accepts Abyss Gear, making it scale into the late game.

The base Lightning Spear is weak and should be upgraded as soon as possible. Do not invest refinement materials into the base version.
Spears excel at maintaining distance from enemies. Use thrust attacks to poke from outside their melee range.
The Electro-Mecha Spear offers higher immediate power (30 Attack) but cannot be refined. For long-term investment, the Kuku Lightning Spear is the better choice.
As a two-handed weapon, this spear prevents the use of off-hand equipment like shields.
