Editing Spear Weapon Family

'''Spears''' are a recurring type of weapon, appearing in every installment of the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' franchise from the second game onwards. This weapon was originally used by [[Priest]]s, but has since been a staple armament of [[Paladin]]s, [[Warrior]]s repertoire.

Beginning with the ninth entry in the series, spears will always deal and additional 10% damage to members of the [[Beast family]] of monsters, regardless of other factors.
