Spear Throw is a projectile attack skill granted by spears that causes the user to throw their spear horizontally in the target direction. If you have a frenzy charge, it will be consumed to cause the projectile explode at the end of its flight, dealing damage in an area around it.

Skill functions and interactions

"End of flight" refers to when the projectile would despawn upon reaching maximum distance or hitting an enemy while not having any other projectile modifiers that would cause it to continue, such as pierce.
