Allowing for damage penetration into the second Forsaken World Gold rank.
The true power of the Spearman is his ability to hit two opponents in a single row, allowing for damage penetration into the second Forsaken World Gold rank of your opponent's formation.Spearmen have reasonable hit points, though their defensive abilities are rather weak for a melee fighter. Their class-specific magical attack, Lightning Spear, has the magical ability to reduce the opposing units' action power, effectively disallowing them from acting on the opponent's next turn.Spearmen are a useful class in the early levels for bringing high amounts of damage into the enemy's back ranks. I'd recommend if you're going to use a Spearman to combine them with Gunners or more Spearmen, to maximize the damage penetration abilities of your party. This can actually be a very powerful party arrangement in the early game of Atlantica Online.
