A golden spear is a variant of spear crafted from gold ingots. It can be used to perform slow jab attacks or held forward to deal increasing damage based on how quickly the wielder is moving. It is the seventh-highest tier of spear, dealing the same damage as a wooden spear but with lower attack speed and durability. It can be admired by piglins, and has the highest enchantability.

Crafting

Ingredients Crafting recipe
Gold Ingot +

Mob loot

[edit | edit source]

Piglins and zombified piglins have a 5% chance to spawn wielding golden spears, and those holding one have an 8.5% chance (+1% for each level of Looting, up to a maximum of 11.5% with Looting III) to drop it when killed by a player or tamed wolf.

Usage

[edit | edit source]

Attacking

[edit | edit source]

Jab attack

[edit | edit source]

A golden spear can be used while standing on the ground to perform a jab attack, dealing damage, and afterwards entering a recharge cooldown similar to that of an ender pearl or chorus fruit on Bedrock Edition, or a version of the normal attack cooldown on Java Edition.

Charge attack

[edit | edit source]

When holding down the use key, the spear is lowered into an attack position, where colliding with a target deals damage depending on the velocity of the user, and the attack dismounts attacked targets from their mounts. After being held out for too long, the charge attack goes into a shaking state where attacks no longer dismount targets from their mounts. After even longer, the charge attack goes into a dropped down state where attacks no longer deal knockback, but still deal full damage.

Piglins

[edit | edit source]

Piglins are attracted to golden spears and run toward any golden spear on the ground, inspecting it for 6 to 8 seconds before putting it in their inventory.
