Exacerbating Crits is a passive skill for Spear users in New World. Exacerbating Crits belongs to the Impaler Tree, which is focused on damaging enemies and applying bleeds. This Passive causes Critical Hits to extend the duration of your Spear debuffs and damage over time effects by 20%.
Active Skills as well as Light and Heavy Attacks for the Spear increase in efficiency with Dexterity as their Primary Attribute and Strength as their Secondary Attribute. Investing into either Attribute will increase the damage of your Spear’s basic attacks and skills, though you will see a greater bonus for investing into Dexterity.
