Though the spear is a simple weapon to learn, it rewards you for the time you have taken to master it. You gain the following benefits :
-
You gain a +1 bonus to attack rolls you make with a spear.
-
When you use a spear, its damage die changes from a d6 to a d8, and from a d8 to a d10 when wielded with two hands. (This benefit has no effect if another feature has already improved the weapon’s die.)
- As a bonus action on your turn, you can increase your reach with a spear by 5 feet for the rest of your turn.
- You can choose to make one of your attacks a sweeping attack, possibly hitting multiple targets within reach. Make an attack roll for each target within reach. You don't add your ability modifier to the damage of the sweeping attack, unless that modifier is negative.
