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.

Former President Obama shares rare family photo on daughter Sasha's 24th birthday
The Obama family marked Sasha Obama's 24th birthday this week with a celebratory and rare family photo. Former President Barack Obama shared birthday wishes for his youngest daughter, writing in an Instagram post Tuesday, "Happy birthday, Sasha! Watching you grow into the incredible woman you are has been a true gift. I'll always be proud of you and will always be here for you." Michelle Obama also shared the same picture of the family, who are all smiling in the snapshot. "Happy birthday to my sweet girl, Sasha!" the former first lady captioned her Instagram post. "Can't believe how quickly time has flown. I'm so proud of the woman you've become. Love you always! 💕🥳🎉." Sasha Obama was born in June 2001, nearly eight years before the family moved into the White House for the former president's first term in January 2009. She and her older sister Malia Obama, now 26, grew up in the presidential home for eight years, during their father's two terms in office, until 2017. In a July 2024 interview with Melinda French Gates' podcast, "Moments That Make Us," Michelle Obama opened up about raising her daughters at the White House during their formative years. "Well, those girls had to be smart and confident and independent straight away, even when they were living in a house with butlers and maids and florists," she said. "But I was raising them thinking, 'You're not going to live here, and with me, forever. So I've got to hand you your life soon and let you manage it.'" Sasha Obama graduated from the University of Southern California in May 2023, and Malia Obama, who graduated from Harvard University in 2021, now works in the film and TV industry. Her short film, "The Heart," premiered earlier this year at the Sundance Film Festival.

Barack and Michelle Obama Share Rare New Family Photo for Daughter Sasha's 24th Birthday
Barack and Michelle Obama shared a rare new family photo on Tuesday, June 10, in celebration of daughter Sasha's 24th birthday. The former first family is smiling and embracing one another in the picture, as the parents shared uplifting captions dedicated to their younger daughter. Michelle recently opened up about their elder daughter Malia's attempt to "distinguish" herself by dropping her famous last name in her budding filmmaking career. President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama shared a rare new family photo this week in celebration of their daughter Sasha's 24th birthday. The picture features the full Obama family — Barack, Michelle, Sasha and Malia — with their arms around one another. The former president is dressed casually, in a white polo and gray slacks, while his wife and daughters are in sundresses. "Happy birthday, Sasha! Watching you grow into the incredible woman you are has been a true gift. I'll always be proud of you and will always be here for you," Barack, 63, captioned the post. Michelle, 61, shared the same photo on her page, with the caption, "Happy birthday to my sweet girl, Sasha! Can't believe how quickly time has flown. I'm so proud of the woman you've become. Love you always!" Since leaving the White House, Malia and Sasha have lived more private lives than their parents. Though Malia, 26, entered the film and TV industry in recent years, which has required her to make occasional public appearances, Sasha has remained out of the spotlight and rarely appears at events or in photographs. Michelle recently opened up about her daughters' attempts to "distinguish" themselves from their famous family now that they're adults. During an appearance on Kate and Oliver Hudson's podcast, Sibling Revelry, the former first lady shared her feelings on Malia's decision to drop her last name and use her middle name, going by "Malia Ann" in her budding filmmaking career. The former first daughter casually revealed the name change when she debuted The Heart, a short film that she wrote and directed, at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival. "I mean, 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," Michelle said. "They're very sensitive to that — they want to be their own people." "We were like, 'They're still going to know it's you, Malia,' " she added. "But we respected the fact that she's trying to make her way." While she dropped her famous last name, "Ann" is still deeply significant in the Obama family, as it's the name of Barack's late mother, Ann Dunham, who died in 1995. Michelle shared that Malia and Sasha have both sought independence from their family legacy since they were teens. "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 told Kate and Oliver. Now that Malia and Sasha are adults, and the family no longer faces the pressures of the White House, Michelle said her daughters have a better understanding of their parents and are "embracing our parenting principles." "They have a clearer understanding of why we did a lot of what we did," she explained. "They understand us as full human beings now, in the same way that I think I discovered that about my parents when I went away to college." Read the original article on People

Michelle Obama daughter Malia changes name Last week, the forthcoming "Look" book author broke her silence on the eldest daughter's decision to drop her last name.

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.
