Warrior · Arms · Row 4 of 7 · Single rank
NEW in Forever Active ability

Spearing Strike sits in row 4 of the Warrior Arms tree. A talent tree is simply the grid of talents for one class role. It costs just one point. So the only question is whether opening its row fits your build.

New in Forever. This talent never existed in Classic, so don't go looking for an old version to compare. There is none.

15 Rage | Melee Range | Instant | 20 sec cooldown | Requires Two-Handed Axes, Two-Handed Maces, Polearms, Two-Handed Swords, Staves

What Spearing Strike does at each rank

A rank is one level of a talent. Every rank makes the effect a bit stronger. The list below uses the exact wording from the beta client, word for word.

  1. Rank 1: A brutal attack that deals 40% weapon damage. Deals an additional 80% weapon damage against Giants, Dragonkin, and mounted targets. Mounted targets are dismounted.

How to reach Spearing Strike

Row 4 opens after you spend 15 points in the earlier Arms rows. Level 25 is the earliest you can pick up Spearing Strike.

Is Spearing Strike worth the points?

One point gives you the full effect. The real cost is opening row 4. That is 15 points in the rows above, so take it when the talent suits your build.
