Lance of Judgement (5e Equipment)
|
This page is of questionable balance. Reason: [1] item is not only utterly ridiculous power-wise, but many things are confusingly and questionably worded. 90 feet flight with no caveats, two damage immunities, flat double damage, a +30 skill bonus, DC 40 saves to disarm, summoning seven friendly creatures each with Challenge Rating 23, ignoring any and all immunity, flat double damage, who the heck is Vastos, the most narrow and confusing destruction rules ever, free healing, friendlies get advantage on everything, and this is just the stuff I could find on a cursory glance.

Weapon (spear), artifact (requires attunement)
Forged by the two gods of order, Judgement and Justice, the Lance of Judgement was created as a gift for the first empress of all dragonkind, Aurora. The spear was passed through generations of dragons, until the collapse of the empire, after which the spear was lost for several eons, before being rediscovered by Lucian Grace, a human warrior. Lucian wielded the spear once more, cleaving through entire nations with it. Upon Lucian’s passing, Judgement reclaimed the spear, to hold on to it until someone worthy of yielding came along.
