==Description==

Strikes a single opponent with a spear. Deals multiple strikes depending on the enemy's [[size]]: 1 hit on [[Small]] foes, 2 hits on [[Medium]] foes, 3 hits on [[Large]] foes (players are Medium, except for babies, who are Small). A small accuracy bonus is also added; this is added to the hit rate after it is calculated from the player's [[Hit]] and the target's [[Flee]].

== Applications ==

[[Knight]]s who use [[Spear]]s use Pierce as the main single-target damage skill. As a result, many Knights prefer to hunt larger-sized opponents to leverage this advantage. Pierce has a larger damage modifier than [[Bash]] for large targets. However, Bash has the added ability to [[Stun]], which may be useful for high [[Flee]] opponents. For small opponents, Bash or [[Bowling Bash]] may be more suitable.

== Notes ==
* The accuracy bonus is added after the hit rate is determined. If a player would usually hit a monster for 50% of attacks, using level 10 Pierce raises that rate to 75%.
