Crimson Desert: “Defeat 5 Enemies With A Spear Without Taking Damage While Maintaining 100% Health” Challenge Guide – Sharpened Spear 5 Locations, Steps, and Rewards

What to know

• Activate via Sealed Abyss Artifact near Bradenfern Farm, northeast of Hernand.

• Fight on Howling Hill pathway with its steady spawn of 8-9 enemies.

• Clear archers first, heal up, then take down five melee foes one by one.

• No timer pressure—focus solely on zero damage during spear kills.

The Sharpened Spear V challenge in Crimson Desert is the final spear challenge. It requires you to defeat 5 enemies with a spear without taking any damage. Here’s how to go about it.

Sharpened Spear 5 Locations

Northeast of Hernand lies the Bradenfern Farm zone—grab the artifact from rocks left of the entrance.

Shift to Howling Hill pathway for battles, a straight path packed with patrol groups of melee grunts and scattered archers perfect for picking off threats solo.

Step-by-step guide to completion

Step 1 

Collect the Sealed Abyss Artifact from rocks by Bradenfern Farm to trigger Sharpened Spear 5 in your log.

Step 2

Head to Howling Hill pathway (or anywhere else you like where the enemies aren’t too difficult and great in number), ensure full health, and scan for the full enemy pack.

Step 3

Pick off every ranged attacker using quick strikes or dodges.

Step 4

Restore to 100% health with food, potions, or rests, then swap your spear in and out of gear for a clean slate.

Step 5

Lure remaining melee enemies forward individually by backing up, preventing group rushes.

Step 6

Face the first foe: evade or parry its swings, counter with spear thrusts and follow-ups for a clean kill.

Step 7

Heal if scratched, reposition, and repeat the solo duel for enemy two through four.

Step 8

Land the fifth spear kill the same way, eyes glued to your health staying maxed out.

Step 9

Check the challenge menu for success; respawn foes by reloading the zone if anything glitches.
