Season 5: Reloaded has added a spear toCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 3.This long-range melee weapon can deal some serious damage up close, jabbing targets just out of arm’s reach. It can even be thrown at enemies for a stylish one-hit kill in any playlist. Versatility is the Spear’s strongsuit.
But to unlock the Spear, you’ll need to complete a short list of objectives that can be quite frustrating, most of which require you to land melee kills against players or fairly durable zombies in MWZ. In this guide, we cover some tips and strategies for unlocking the new Spear melee weapon as quickly as possible.
How To Unlock The Spear
Once Season 5 ends, the Spear can be unlocked throughArmory Unlocks.
The Spear is unlocked through theSeason 5 Battle Pass.The item is found in Sector 23, but unlike most Battle Pass sectors, you’ll need to complete challenges to unlock the rewards in this tier—they aren’t unlocked through Battle Pass tokens.
There are five challenges you must complete to unlock the Spear:
For the melee challenges, you can useany weapon with the S-37C DL Breacher Device muzzleto make your gun butt attacks a one-hit kill. This will progress the first and fourth challenges. For the second challenge, run the Throwing Knife lethal alongside the Ninja Vest. You’ll have multiple Throwing Knives to work with, both of which will recharge over time.
The third challenge is arguably the trickiest. You need to land three backstab melee kills. This can be done with a gun or a dedicated melee weapon; we suggest the latter.Use the Karambit and Running Sneakers perkto get behind enemies as fast as you can. You can run the Infantry Vest to run Ghost and Covert Sneakers as well, making it easier to sneak behind players.
Once all four challenges are complete, you’ll need to get five melee kills while crouched. As weird as that sounds, the challenge is simply asking you toget melee kills while sliding—you are technically crouched while sliding.Activate tactical sprint, slide next to an enemy, and then swing away with your chosen melee weapon. Repeat as needed until you unlock the Spear melee weapon.
