Every selection of spear that is seen as the top 5 will differ depending on who’s making the suggestions. These are mine. I love playing with a spear during my amazing adventures with my friends in the world of Aeterum. It’s so easy to use and deals a great amount of damage. I marvel at the way it moves swiftly and powerfully with each strike. From tip to heel, it is a masterpiece of craftsmanship.

My eyes were heavy, struggling to open as the raindrops fell over me. Slowly, I managed to open my eyes as blue as azoth, staring at the bright azoth lighting as it strikes. I can't help but think it is beautiful as the flashes of blue light dance across the sky.

They say that Olympian was crafted in a temple of the gods, and made from the body of a god. They say its tip was forged with the willpower of a demon. After it was combined it was drenched in the luck of a damned soul. Never forget…

Olympian is a very nice spear. It can be used for both PvE and PvP gameplay. As with most spears, The Olympian’s reach is expansive. However, this is one of the best spears within the Aeternum World.

What Olympian Excel at?

Perforcte adds protection.

  • This is due to the Fortifying Perforate.

Increased Cooldowns. 

  • This is all thanks to the Refreshing Move perk.

How to obtain the Olympian?
Artemis Boon Drop

Obtaining this weapon may not be easy. But know this, it's worth it. It is randomly dropped by any of the creatures within the game as long as you have the boons active. To get the boons activated, you are required to consume one of the following potions:

  • Weak Boon of Artemis Potion - Tier I
  • Common Boon of Artemis Potion - Tier I
  • Common Boon of Artemis Potion - Tier II
  • Strong Boon of Artemis Potion - Tier II
  • Strong Boon of Artemis Potion - Tier III
  • Powerful Boon of Artemis Potion - Tier III
  • Powerful Boon of Artemis Potion - Tier IV
  • Infused Boon of Artemis Potion - Tier V

Here is some extra advice. The Olympian I think would be effective in almost all builds, but a Semi Tank or Damager would be my recommendation. Remember perforate ability is a necessity with this spear unless you want to waste the perk.
