Spear
The Spear is VV: Ultimatum's longest-reaching polearm at Extremely Long range, dealing 12.25 damage but a hefty 15 posture damage per hit, with the fastest documented riposte-capable critical cooldown at 6.5 seconds.
The Spear is built around one idea: touch the opponent before they can touch you. Its attack range is rated Extremely Long - the top of the documented scale, shared only with the Lance - while its Average attack speed keeps pokes coming at a reasonable clip.
Its damage profile is lopsided in an interesting way: 12.25 health damage is the lowest among documented mid-to-heavy weapons, but 15 posture damage is disproportionately high for a weapon this quick. In practice the Spear chips guards apart from a distance, steering fights toward guardbreaks and punish windows rather than raw health races. The trade-off is a Very Long attack duration - each thrust commits you - and only Average stun on hit.
Its critical is riposte-capable and recharges every 6.5 seconds, the shortest critical cooldown documented among the standard weapon roster, so the parry-riposte loop comes online almost every exchange. Community documentation captures Soul Reaper skins and Quincy attack footage; the weapon carries no faction tag, so no restriction is documented.
