Lehudib's Crystal Spear (or LCS) is a level 8 Conjurations/Earth Magic spell that launches a powerful, irresistible projectile at a single target.
Strategy
This spell is essentially an upgraded version of Bombard; LCS deals high damage that no monster has a resistance to. However, it has a high MP cost, very short range, can be blocked or evaded, and relatively low MP efficiency. When fighting a group of monsters, save it for taking out dangerous foes (orbs of fire, Pandemonium lords, fiends, hell sentinels, etc.) quickly, then switch to a lesser spell for the rest.
LCS might be powerful, but you may want to use Bombard instead. Bombard takes less XP to use, and is usually sufficient to clear a 3-rune game. Also, it has a sometimes-useful recoil effect and a 1 tile greater range. LCS is useful if you want to kill enemies faster, and/or if you have spare XP and spell levels to burn. In addition, you might want LCS if you are also using Spellforged Servitor, so that the servitor can have the stronger spell.
Tips & Tricks
- Borgnjor's Vile Clutch combos well with Lehudib's Crystal Spear -- pinning enemies in place reduces their evasion, allowing you to set up a lethal one-two punch.
Monster Version
Certain fearsome monsters can also cast Lehudib's Crystal Spear, often with the ability to one- or two-shot unprepared or fragile adventurers. Even the weakest casters can inflict up to 69 damage with it, while the most powerful (ancient liches) can deal up to 144. It is entirely possible for a monster to cast this multiple times in a row, so make these enemies a very high priority in combat.
The monster version of this spell functions identically to the player version, except with a much more variable damage output:
monster_spell_damge = 3d(16 + power / 10) where power = 12 * monster_hit_dice
The following enemies cast Lehudib's Crystal Spear:
- L
Ancient lich (3d48 damage) - e
Deep elf annihilator (3d34 damage) - &
Dispater (3d35 damage) - q
Draconian annihilator (3d35 damage) - V
Jory (3d37 damage) - 8
Roxanne (3d32 damage) - D
Serpent of Hell (Dis) (3d36 damage)

The following enemies may be able to cast Lehudib's Crystal Spear, depending on their spell set:
- &
Pandemonium lord (5.2% chance)
The following enemy "casts" crystal spear via Conjure Living Spells:
- ;
Walking crystal tome (2x 3d34)
History
- Prior to 0.27, this spell could only be found in the Book of Annihilations.
- Prior to 0.14, there was also an unrand spear known as Lehudib's Crystal Spear. This was removed when spears were removed as viable throwing weapons.
