The Royal Spear is a high-end spearfishing tool in Fisch, sold at the entrance of the Crowned Ruins for 3,750,000 C$. It carries 30 Piercing and two value-boosting mutations, but the shop will not sell it until you have fully mapped the local Bestiary.
Quick answer: Reach 100% completion of the Crowned Ruins Bestiary, travel to the Crowned Ruins entrance inside Tidefall, interact with the Royal Spear stand, and confirm the 3,750,000 C$ purchase.
Requirements to unlock the Royal Spear
Two conditions gate the purchase. You need enough currency in the bank, and you need a completed Bestiary for the exact zone where the spear is sold. Missing either one leaves the stand locked.
| Requirement | Detail |
|---|---|
| Currency | 3,750,000 C$ |
| Bestiary | 100% Crowned Ruins Bestiary completion |
| Region | Crowned Ruins, a sub-area of Tidefall |
| Key catch | Goldwraith (event-exclusive fish) |
The hardest part of the Bestiary is the Goldwraith, an event-exclusive fish. Until you land it, your Crowned Ruins completion cannot hit 100%, and the spear stays unavailable no matter how much cash you hold.
Where to buy the Royal Spear
Note: If the stand only shows the item without a working purchase option, your Crowned Ruins Bestiary is not yet at 100%. Return once the missing fish, usually the Goldwraith, is caught.
Royal Spear stats and mutations
The Royal Spear pairs strong Piercing with two mutation rolls that raise a fish’s sell value. Both mutations share a 35% trigger chance per hit, so value boosts land often during a farming session.
| Attribute | Value |
|---|---|
| Power | 11 |
| Handling | 23 |
| Piercing | 30 |
| Price | 3,750,000 C$ |
| Royal mutation | 35% chance, 9.4× value |
| Midas mutation | 35% chance, 2.5× value |
| Released | Version 1.67.0 |
The 30 Piercing makes it forgiving to hit armored and tougher fish, while a Handling of 23 keeps aim manageable. It still relies on manual aim, so it rewards active play more than the passive click-and-wait of rod fishing.
Royal Spear vs. Withered Spear
If you are weighing the Royal Spear against the Withered Spear, the trade sits between control and raw multiplier. The Royal Spear is far easier to aim, while the Withered Spear edges it slightly on peak value.
| Spear | Handling | Piercing | Top multiplier |
|---|---|---|---|
| Royal Spear | 23 | 30 | 9.4× |
| Withered Spear | -10 | Lower | 9.5× |
The Withered Spear’s -10 Handling makes it much harder to land clean hits, so the small 9.5× versus 9.4× gap rarely outweighs the Royal Spear’s steadier aim and higher Piercing for most players.
For players who already have millions banked and enjoy active spearfishing, the Royal Spear is a reliable C$ farming tool thanks to its frequent Royal and Midas procs. If you are still chasing the Goldwraith or short on currency, the Coral Spear or a rod upgrade is the more practical next step until the Crowned Ruins Bestiary is complete.
