The God of War series has always been famous for letting players pick and choose from all sorts of weapons. While the Sons of Sparta spinoff limits players to just using a spear as their main form of damage, that spear has multiple attachments that players can use to personalize their gameplay.
In particular, players can collect spear tips in God of War: Sons of Sparta. These attachments have all sorts of features, whether it’s changing how much damage your spear does or applying additional effects. Here are the absolute best spear tips in God of War: Sons of Sparta.
Thunder Barb
Lightning is usually a game-changer in most action games, and Sons of Sparta is no exception. The Thunder Barb spear tip infuses the spear with lightning, ensuring that every strike with the spear deals electric damage. This makes this tip perfect for crowd control, since the lighting chains and deals damage to multiple enemies. If you’re looking for a spear tip to keep hordes of enemies in check, then Thunder Barb is perfect.
Tainted Thorn
While the Thunder Barb spear tip infuses the spear with lightning, the Tainted Thorn does the same with poison. Continuously attacking enemies applies a poison effect to the enemy, letting you deal damage even when you aren’t actively engaging with them. This spear tip has to be the best to use against tanky bosses who can take you down in a couple of hits, since you can just apply poison and back out while still dealing damage.
Burnt Splinter
The Burnt Splinter may not deal too much damage, but it’s a good all-rounder. Using this spear tip makes your attacks deal fire-based damage, while also applying a burn effect. Since burning isn’t too long, players who don’t mind being aggressive and maintaining constant pressure on enemies may have a good time with this specific spear tip.
Frigid Spiral
The Frigid Spiral is the best spear tip in God of War: Sons of Sparta if you’re someone who struggles against fast enemies. As the name suggests, this spear tip applies frost to enemies, making it easier to kite them when they’re slowed down. It’s perfect for those who like playing a little more defensively and wish things were slower than they are.
Petrified Spike
The Petrified Spike spear tup adds a stun-style effect to enemies. It’s similar to using Medusa’s head in the first God of War game, except it isn’t nearly as effective. Still, it’s perfect if you want to interrupt dangerous enemy attacks that could be tough to dodge or can take you down with one hit.
