Ancient Spear (Diablo III)

Ancient Spear is a Secondary skill.

In-game
Ancient Spear is one of the three ranged attacks the Barbarian has in their arsenal. It hurls a piercing spear that flies for up to yards and damages all enemies in its path. It cannot bypass walls and obstacles.

Runes

 * Ranseur: enemies hit are also knocked back yards.
 * Harpoon: all enemies hit are also pulled back to the Barbarian and Slowed by for  second.
 * Jagged Edge: damage type changes to Fire, and increases the damage to.
 * Boulder Toss: The Barbarian hurls a boulder, which hits the targeted location anywhere within yards, bypassing enemies and most (but not all) obstacles. The impact location has a  yards radius, no longer pierces in line. The throw now expends  of the Barbarian's remaining Fury (minimum  is required for each cast, though), but in return, it deals  damage as Physical for every point of Fury expended. Note: effects that reduce resource costs have no effect on the draining of all remaining Fury.
 * Rage Flip: all enemies hit are also thrown yards behind the Barbarian and Slowed by  for  second. If there is not enough place behind the Barbarian, simply pulls enemies as close as possible.

Non-rune enhancements

 * The Three Hundredth Spear (Legendary Spear): increases damage by.
 * Might of the Earth Set (Set Bonus for 6 items): increases damage by 20000%.
 * Skular's Salvation (Legendary Bracers): Increase the damage of Ancient Spear by 150-200%. If your Ancient Spear – Boulder Toss hits 5 or fewer enemies, the damage is increased by 100%.
 * Arreat's Law (Legendary Spear): Weapon Throw and Ancient Spear deal 150-200% 150-200% increased damage.
 * The Legacy of Raekor Set (Set Bonus for 4 pieces): Furious Charge gains the effect of every rune and deals 1000% increased damage. For every 1% Life you are missing, the damage of your Ancient Spear is increased by 2%.
 * The Legacy of Raekor Set (Set Bonus for 6 pieces): Hitting enemies with Furious Charge or Weapon Throw increases the damage of your next Ancient Spear by 5500% and causes it to release multiple spears from its target. This effect stacks and each spear throw consumes a maximum of 5 stacks.

Passives

 * No Escape: Ancient Spear deals more damage to enemies at least  yards away from the Barbarian.

Development
Originally, Ancient Spear had a cooldown, but generated Fury, and always pulled the afflicted enemy back to the Barbarian.

Trivia

 * 's combat skill is named Ancient Spear as well, and is animated similarly. However, The Butcher hurls a whole bunch of them at once, hitting a broad cone.
 * The spear does count as a missile for in-game purposes.
