Usage Strategies
Deathly Spears makes an excellent area of effect attack(aoe). It can be used in combos with Fiery Ember, Icy Evanescence and Charged Grid. The Jab mod will increase its effectiveness as an aoe attack as well as a single target boss attack. The extra waves of jab can continue to go off after you have cast deadly spears and you can use other CAs while it is in effect.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Can produce a high amount of damage
- Deadly Spikes is considered an area of attack spell and can be used against "cloaked" mobs/players
- Great for both single target and multiple target encounters
- Deadly Spears is mostly elemental damage and will change according to the damage element placed on your main hand weapon
Cons
- Must be at high levels to see good results
- The Jab mod is almost a "must have" for this CA which is the final gold mod, this can take time to reach since there are so many other important mods to take for the Temple guardian within the Devout Guardian aspect
