How to use Spear
MW3 and Warzone players will have three Spears available upon each spawn. You can perform a melee attack that’s described as “rapid piercing strikes,” or you can opt to throw them at enemies similar to a Throwing Knife. When throwing a Spear, a reticle will be provided to “account for various distances.”
If the player has at least one Spear in their inventory, they can retrieve thrown ones from the environment. Additionally, they can use both the Spear and the new Torque 35 Launcher to pin enemies against walls thanks to their sharp tips.
The mid-season update offered more than just new weaponry, as it also brought weapon buffs and nerfs and the new Personal Records feature in Warzone.
