informative as usually but you left off that for those that dont care about the story you can purchase the spear mastery from the heroics notary vendor for 500 jade heroics but while it gives access to the land based spear usages it does not tick off the lowland spear training mastery which you need if you want to continue the story at some point.
Moving all these mastery unlocks to NPCs and quest givers is a nice idea. But the GW2 UI just doesn't do a good job of pointing out important quest givers (only Hearts are big and easy to find), just a tiny icon that gets lost on a map of tiny icons. There's a reason why BlishUI has toggles for nearly every map UI icon to be bigger and visible in the actual gameworld.
@@loisfauvin8082 wait do the testimonies of jade heroics have any real value? I thought this was a good trade. for people who play wvw these just pile up and for people who dont will unlock in pve anyway? I have 28k of them just sitting there
I’ve unlocked it but I can only use it on the toon I unlocked with. I tried on other toons won’t let me equip. It why? Went to WvW notary to see if I have to but, no scroll, why? So confused.
Not to quibble, but you seem to imply that the "underwater" spears we've been using on characters up to now are interchangeable: "...I was able to immediately move my water spear to land...". I'm not sure this is true. The game gave me a _new_ spear when I unlocked the mastery. Did you equip your other characters with new spears or the ones they had been using underwater?
@@MuklukTH-cam Okay, fair enough. Not trying to be obtuse, but I had vague memory of someone saying (a few weeks before release) that we'd have to get new "land-spears"...
Can you jump straight into Janthir Wilds or do I have to play the other addons first? The spear is what I'm mostly interested in right now and while I do have a few characters on 80, I've never really managed to play everything the game has to offer storywise so far but spears sound so cool that I would like to grab them asap and without the need of WvW if possible.
You can jump straight into Janthir if you wish to do so. Storywise it picks up after SotO, so if that bothers you, you could play SotO first. But if you aren't bothered by that, you can jump straight in and unlock spears soon after if that is your objective.
There are always going to be people who want a specific feature of the expansion and want to tunnel vision to that asap, even if it means skipping the story. This was meant to point them in the right direction.

I actually learned that that was possible from this comment section, thanks!
Thank you I was super confused about what to do and I thought that the Mesmer abilities looked interesting. Thank you for the clear explanation.
Fantastic tutorial; quick and to the point. It sure did help.
Thank you for making this video, fellow human. I, too, like gen 3 bacon.
This video was entertaining *and* informative. Keep up the great work!
Thanks Muk, that was helpful in clarifying it.
Thankyou Mukluk, your videos are always informative and helpful!!!

cant you also unlock it in wvw for 500 jade heroics? I saw guildies talk about it
Thats a rip off..
I too was scammed

It helped :)
I think i saw the thumbnail in twitch 😜 happy birthday 🎁✌🏻
Amazing video, especially for a WvW norn just googling how to unlock spears. How do you do it?

Heyho - do I need to do this for using Spears in PvP? I never stepped out out the pvpZone 🙈
I have unlocked it but I cant get it to go into the slot on my other characters
Unequip the spear from the "water" slot so it is in your bag, then try to equip it to the land slot. That is what worked for me.
thanks i will try it
@@MuklukTH-cam thanks, had a brain fart. Kept trying to equip my Trident and not a spear 😜
Didnt know you could remove harvesting glyphs, ty!!!
They're free to remove, and if you put it in a tool that isn't infinite, the glyph goes back into your inventory when the tool breaks.
by doing the quest will the quest be must of spoiler of the story?
it even works before 80, so you can now level toons using the aquatic spears you get from leveling.

I used the same spears. Just unequip the ones from the water slot, and then drag them from your bag to the land slot.

gptvBUTT Your video is so uplifting and funny. I'm happy you created this to raise my spirits! LuvHearts
How long does it take 😊

Wow. Interesting video. How do you do it?
Why do you need to unlock a weapon category....?
Hmm i actually cannot use it on my other chars,but it might be a bug
Same
This video was made for player like me:)
I have a problem, if I wear the Leggy Spear on land, when I go under water I don't have any spear at all. 😢😢😢
Aye, with the current system you would need two spears to have one in both cases.
Less costly than Sticks of Butter!
tl;dw - Follow the story and you'll be forced to unlock Spears to continue very early on in order to continue.
But how does one unlock the 5th spearskill oO
If you unlock spears (on land) you should get all the skills instantly. If you don't, try weapon swapping then swapping back.
HABOOB!
🥰🥰😘😘😍😍
its sad you had to make a video on this....its literally part of the main story....
