Avowed's Best Spear Is A Poisonous Pointy Stick Called Umpara
It's hard to deny that spears are a cool weapon, as few things scream 'deadly' quite so much as a stick with a pointy end. Avowed features a few solid Spears to choose for your melee weapon, but the poisonous Umpara's Spear and its excellent critical damage bonus makes it one of the best choices for many builds. Here's what you need to know about this pokey stick and how to find it.
Umpara's Spear comes with the Strike the Heart passive bonus, which proves a bonus of +25 percent critical hit damage. This is a significant amount of crit damage, and builds focused on this stat can make immense use of it.
Umpara's Spear comes with the Deadly Mechanism enchantment, which causes Power Attacks to launch a poison dart to the damaged enemy. You can choose one of two permanent upgrades to this enchantment:
Paralyzing Toxin - The poison dart released during a Power Attack now spreads poison accumulation to nearby enemies as well.
Unbalancing Rhythm - Full combo attacks slow an enemy and decreases their damage reduction by 20 percent for 10 seconds.
Umpara's Spear is one of the rewards earned during the 'Heart of Valor' side quest in Shatterscarp. You'll obtain this quest in Thirdborn by speaking to Chiko, to the south of the city's entrance. He's pretty hard to miss—especially since the city is rather small to begin with.
'Heart of Valor' takes you on a lengthy journey to uncover the Heart of the Leviathan. After you've found it, you'll be given a choice whether to offer it to Chiko or his uncle, Keipo. When you encounter this choice, give the Heart of the Leviathan to Chiko. During the conversation, choose to keep the secret about Keipo's lies. For this, Chiko will hand over Umpara's Spear.
Now that you've got a good stick for poking baddies, get back out there into The Living Lands and let 'em have it.

'They are young adult women, but they definitely went through a period in their teen years where it was the push away … [where] you're trying to distinguish yourself,' she said of her and former President Barack Obama's daughters.

Outer Worlds 2 Is Xbox's First $80 Video Game
Today's Xbox Summer Game Fest showcase was a solid hour of big and small announcements, including a new Call of Duty trailer and the reveal of Xbox's handheld PC device. But it also brought us our first $80 Xbox game. The Outer Worlds 2, Obsidian's next big open-world RPG following this year's excellent Avowed, kicked off Xbox's showcase with a new trailer. And after the event, Xbox and Obsidian showed off even more of the upcoming space RPG sequel. It also opened up pre-orders, and that's when people discovered that Outer Worlds 2 is $80. While reactions to this news were mostly negative, it isn't surprising. We knew Xbox was going to start charging $80 for games this year, as the company confirmed this was the plan in May. It announced last month that it was raising prices on all hardware and accessories, too. And it confirmed that by the holidays, some of its new first-party games will see a price jump from $70 to $80. Unfortunately for Outer Worlds 2 and developers Obsidian, the upcoming RPG is the first Xbox game to be priced at $80. When Microsoft announced its plans to raise prices on games and consoles, it didn't specify why. But it's not hard to connect the dots. Xbox is raising prices due to President Trump's ongoing tariff waragainst other countries. While it is true that prices for Xbox consoles and accessories are increasing all around the world, the difference is far greater in the U.S. Of course, Xbox isn't the first video game company to charge $80 for a video game. Nintendo famously broke the internet when it announced that Mario Kart World on Switch 2 was going to be priced at $80. And I'd bet my next lunch that GTA 6 will cost at least $80 when it arrives in May 2026. It wasn't that long ago that people were getting used to $70 games. And now that Xbox has finally made the leap, it's only a matter of time until other companies start charging $80 as one of the most expensive hobbies around, gets even more costly. .

Michelle Obama reveals daughter Malia Obama's name change
Michelle Obama is breaking her silence on eldest daughter Malia Obama's decision to drop her last name. Malia Ann, who is pursuing a film career in Hollywood, used her middle name as her artistic name for the credits of short film "The Heart" which she wrote and directed, that premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in 2024. During a Wednesday, June 4, appearance on the "Sibling Revelry" podcast cohosted by Oliver and Kate Hudson, Obama addressed Malia's decision to ditch Obama after former President Barack Obama's second term. The Obamas also share University of Southern California alum Sasha Obama. Michelle Obama to publish new book 'The Look' this fall and 'reclaim' fashion story "Our daughters (Malia and Sasha) are 25 and 23. They are young adult women, but they definitely went through a period in their teen years where it was the push away. … They're still doing that," Obama told the Hudson siblings, noting that "you guys know this as the children of parents who are known." Michelle Obama says 'everyone' would know if she divorced Barack Obama: 'I'm not a martyr' The Hudsons are the children of actress Goldie Hawn and previously estranged dad, musician Bill Hudson, although they count Hawn's longterm partner Kurt Russell as a father figure. "It is very important for my kids to feel like they've earned what they are getting in the world, and they don't want people to assume that they don't work hard, that they're just naturally, just handed things," the "Becoming" author added. "They're very sensitive to that – they want to be their own people."On Malia's first project "she took off her last name, and we were like, they're still going to know it's you, Malia," Obama continued. "But we respected the fact that she's trying to make her way." Obama told the Hudson siblings, during the appearance alongside her own brother and "IMO" podcast co-host Craig Robinson, that "our daughters didn't want to be little princesses in the White House." "They wanted to push the envelope; they needed some rope. They wanted to try some things, they wanted to be out in the world, and I knew that under the circumstances, they needed more rope than I probably would've given them if I were my mom," Obama said.
