Animation of the Cobalt Naginata. Note its piercing abilities.

The Cobalt Naginata is a Hardmode spear crafted using Cobalt Bars. It lies at the lowest tier of Hardmode ore spears along with the Palladium Pike, and is the weaker of the two, making it the weakest Hardmode exclusive spear.

Its best modifier is Godly or Demonic. Both modifiers increase its average damage output by the same amount.

Tips

• The Dark Lance (found in Shadow Chests in the Underworld) not only has slightly better stats, but also is somewhat easily obtainable Pre-Hardmode, making it a good alternative. However, the Naginata has a slightly higher range.

Trivia

• A Naginata is a traditional Japanese pole weapon, used by samurai. In reality, a naginata is intended to be swung rather than thrusted.
