'''Spears''' are a category of weapons in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''. These weapons have longer reach than other weapons and their stabs are quick, but they deal little damage per hit. The basic attack sequence consists of five stabs, with the fifth being more powerful, breaking through an enemy's defenses or knocking it back. If [[Link]] performs a [[Perfect Dodge]] and enters [[Flurry Rush]], he will execute six hits. If the attack button is held, stamina is drained until the button is released and Link performs a number of quick stabs based on the duration of the hold. Since Link requires both hands to hold the weapon, he cannot use a [[Shield]] at the same time. Some spears are specifically designed to be throwable. These weapons are the most ineffective hand weapons for opening wooden and metal crates.

There are no special spears that can be summoned through [[Breath of the Wild amiibo Exclusive Weapons|Amiibo]], as the game series doesn't feature notable spear weapons, if any at all. However, all spears in this list except for the [[Ancient Spear]] or non-weapons like the [[Wooden Mop]] can be summoned.

The Lightscale Trident is very quick to use, has a power of 22 and base durability of 70. [[Link]] obtains this weapon after saving [[Zora's Domain (Breath of the Wild)|Zora's Domain]] from the trouble caused by the [[Divine Beast]] [[Vah Ruta]]. It once belonged to the [[Mipha|Zora Champion Mipha]], but is gifted to Link by [[King Dorephan]] for his efforts.

If the Lightscale Trident breaks, it can be taken to [[Dento]] in Zora's Domain to have a replacement made in exchange for a [[Zora Spear]], a [[Diamond]], and five pieces of [[Flint]].
