Talk:Obsidian Spear/@comment-173.17.180.40-20160227161200

The Obsidian Spear, like any obsidian tool as of the new update (or the one before it, not sure.), "charges" as it gets used. The more you use the spear, the more heated it gets. As it gets overheated, it first starts emitting light, then starts emitting heat, and when overheated enough, then it sets enemies on fire and overheats the user to the point of damaging them unless they have cooling gear or are in RoG winter. It also seems to have gotten a much-needed damage buff, because in my experience with it it's been doing much more than normal spear damage. If I knew how to gauge the exact damage of a weapon, I would test it out, but it wouldn't surprise me if it was Dark Sword damage, because they're both difficult to get, and have potentially lethal downsides, one being overheating and unintentional fires and the other being massive sanity drain.
