Dragonspine Spear is a craftable weapon that was introduced in version 1.2 as part of the Dragonspine Update. Part of the Frost Burial Series, this weapon shares the category alongside Snow-Tombed Starsilver and Frostbearer. This weapon has below average Base ATK and the secondary stat provides Physical DMG Bonus as well as deal aoe physical DMG, making this an incredible choice for cryo physical damage dealing polearm users.
The story of the spear, since it is built of Durin’s fangs, speaks about his perspective of things. The other side of Durin, the cruel Dragon who had once terrorised the city of Mondstat and had been villianised by everyone since. It states the words of Durin at his final breath in the form of a dragon, “Farewell, O lovely bard! And farewell, O lovely dragon!”. He wanted to meet them at a different time and place, where they would have been good friends.

Story
He had a very, very long dream...
He dreamed that he and everyone else had gone on a long, long journey,
Into a land where green grass grew, and where soulful songs were sung.
He dreamed that he sang along with the gentle people of this land,
And danced in the skies with a dragon as beauteous as a jewel.
When he opened his eyes, he was in the sky above a mountain swept by roaring snowstorms.
The green, tranquil land had already been painted crimson by fire and blood,
And the song of that sky-blue bard's lyre was almost drowned in the howling tumult.
And that bejeweled, lovely dragon, like a tender lover,
Had now pierced his neck through with its sharp fangs.
"Farewell, Mother! My journey is ended."
"I shall sleep beneath this white, shining silver... and perhaps this, too, is good."
"Farewell, O lovely bard! And farewell, O lovely dragon!"
"Would that we had met in a different time and place,"
"To meet, to song and dance together!"
So he thought most sincerely as he lay dying.
"Now then, this great blessing that pulses through my veins,"
"And lovely sight of the dark universe that gave me birth..."
"They are now yours to inherit."
Trivia
