Learn all the Spear ability moves in Kirby: Triple Deluxe, including Spear Thrust, Moon Drop, Spear Throw, and more. Get tips for using this warrior's weapon effectively!
Alright, let's talk about the Spear ability in Kirby: Triple Deluxe! This one's a classic warrior's weapon, and it's pretty versatile. You can get it from enemies called Pierce (the bee with a spear) or Lanzer (that purple-helmeted guy with a trident, kinda looks like Sir Kibble). The game description itself hypes it up with moves like Multispear Attack, Spear Throw, and Moon Drop. Plus, good news – it even works underwater!
While I personally found other abilities a bit more my style in this game compared to Return to Dreamland, the Spear definitely has its moments and some cool moves you'll want to master.

Here's a breakdown of all the cool things you can do with the Spear:
| When Facing Right | Action | Explanation | Effect |
| B | Spear Thrust | Stab the spear forward | Cut |
| Spear Thrust > Left + B | Back Thrust | Same as Spear Thrust, just in the opposite direction | Cut |
| Up + B | Skyward Thrust | Just like Spear Thrust, but upward | Cut |
| Down + B(midair) | Moon Drop | Spin around and stab the spear downward | Cut |
| Dash + B | Spear Throw | Throw the spear forward for a mid-range attack | Cut |
| Dash + B(repeatedly, midair) | Spear Barrage | Just like Spear Throw, but in midair and repeatable | Cut |
| B(repeatedly) | Multispear Attack | Attack with a flurry of stabs, then thrust forward for a final attack | Cut |
| Hold B | Spear Copter | Spin the spear around like a helicopter and fly around freely, hitting anything the spear touches | Cut |
| B (swimming) | Underwater Thrust | Just like Spear Thrust, but underwater | Cut |
| Up + B(swimming) | Surface Thrust | Just like Skyward Thrust, but underwater | Cut |
| Down + B (swimming) | Underwater Downward Thrust | Just like Spear Thrust, but underwater, and downward | Cut |
My thoughts: This is another ability that falls under the 'I loved it in _Return to Dreamland_ but didn't really use it here' category. Some aspects were nerfed from _Return_ and overall I found other abilities better, but it definitely has its uses.
