Polearms are the spears and lances favored by Dragoons, and in some cases, Samurai and Warriors. Polearms generally provide quicker strikes than Great Axes, Great Swords, and Scythes, but deal slightly less damage per hit. Polearms are often purely damage-oriented, but some polearms provide boosts to other stats, most notably accuracy.

Polearm weapon skills are primarily physical, and a majority of these weapon skills are multihit attacks, making accuracy vital for polearm users.
