Revision as of 11:26, 22 February 2014
The Zamorakian hasta is made by taking a Zamorakian spear to Otto Godblessed, along with a payment of 300,000 coins. It is the fastest hasta in the game, being 0.6 seconds (1 in-game tick) faster than every other hasta. It is a popular weapon when killing enemies weak to stab, like metallic dragons. All of the status bonuses remain the as the same as a normal Zamorakian spear, and it retains it's special attack. You must have completed the Barbarian Training up to the point where you learn how to make hastae. This means the Tai Bwo Wannai Trio quest must be completed.
The hasta can be converted back to a spear at no additional cost, however you will still need to pay 300,000 coins to revert it once again to hasta form.
