Boko Spears are Weapons that can commonly found in Hyrule Field and West Necluda. They are used primarily by regular Bokoblins in these areas. They belong to to the Bokoblin Gear equipment archetype, which includes all Weapons created by Bokoblins.[3] Carved from Tree Branches, these Spear are also used by Bokoblins to skewer and Cook Foods.[1] The Hyrule Compendium recommends throwing them if they are close to breaking.[1] Scanning the Breath of the Wild Series Bokoblin amiibo with the amiibo Rune has a chance of spawning a Treasure Chest containing a Boko Spear.

Being made of wood, Boko Spears will float on Water if they are dropped. They will also burn if exposed to a Scorching Climate or Fire, which is a tactic used by Bokoblins near Campfires. Finally, they do not conduct Electricity or attract Lightning during a Thunderstorm, and they cannot be picked up with the Magnesis Rune.
