Do any of you actually like this ability for it being cool or just because of the dmg?
I have started playing a bit of prot warrior recently and just hate how disconected it felt to warrior.
I switched too necro because of that and find that significantly more fun.

Necro just makes me feel like an ape

From a PvP standpoint - I hate Spear. I would like it if it hard a slightly larger radius and wasn’t so easy to just walk out of for half the classes in the game.
I’d probably like it in PvE if I did PvE.

Idk for prot it just feels wrong to me but hey i hate abilities where you have too position them, and having 2 on prot is just too much to me.

Did that for a bit and that also just feels bleh plus necro tok fun really. Was just curious if people are generally using it because its best for things like fury and arms or because they actually enjoy it.
I play it as prot and don’t have trouble timing 20s, I didn’t enjoy necro though.

I used it for the damage but after a while I just switched to necrolord.
I wish we had a chain pull similar to Gunlancer in Lost Ark
Get ovvvvvvver here.
Just make it a short ranged cone so you don’t step on the precious snowflake DK toes.

hate it, prefer necrolord significantly more, worst feeling on the planet is being kyrian and missing that spear or having someone walk out of it with some mobility, or it bugs and doesnt pull someone back even tho u can full see the tether attached to them as they run around. i hope it stays in shadowlands.
It comes clutch durinng necro week and for a couple of specific trash and boss encounters in mythic plus.
First boss of plaguefall save the spear for the three little slimes its a big help esp when dps are not cc’ing
Halls of Atonement ranger/bear pats when the spell “loyal beasts” is cast spearing those bears will give you plentY of time to leap away for the duration or enrage. Make sure to heroic throw to hold aggro.
Spires of A: Spearing those pesky dark strider guys that will zip around so they can deal there range magic dmg, you want to avoid that at all costs by keeping them in melee. Couple other mentions is the spear pack after first boss (they disengage) along with the stealthed griffen mob subsequentlY after the spear gals.
Im sure ive missed some more useful scenerios but spear for prot is more than a dps cooldown and rage generator.

I really think it’s poorly designed ability and not to mention super toxic in PvP because of jerking players around. Wish it would be removed.

Just switched my guy to necro today after playing Kyrian all expansion, just for a switch up. I will say the only thing that felt bad about the spear to me was the target cap, but the tethering was nice and the damage was noticeable to say the least.
Never used spear in shadowlands. I tend to shy away from “magic-like” abilities when playing my warrior.

Spear is really really bad.
Yes I understand the damage is wonderful, but it’s threat multiplier is totally out of whack and in many m+affixes rooting an entire pack is awful and hurts the run more than it helps.
I really hope it’s not the meta in 10.0

I havent liked playig spear. If theyre going to keep it Id prefer if they’d put condemn on that same node as a hex talent so I can take that on every spec.
I’m not sure why they only put condemn and juggernaut on Arms when Condemn was Fury’s bread and butter for a while in SL and Juggernaut works for all.

I used to like it but on certain affixes it pigeonholes you in to using it to save yourself rather than use it offensively. I.e. necrotic week
