About

The Spear is a craftable melee weapon that serves as an early-game tool for combat and resource gathering. It deals respectable piercing damage and can be crafted at a smithy once you have the engram, making it one of the first weapons most players unlock.

Spawn it on your server using its item ID or GFI code. Because it has a numeric ID, you can use either cheat GiveItem "57" 1 0 0 or the GFI command. It does not stack, so each spear occupies one inventory slot.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get the Spear without spawning it?
Yes. The Spear can also be obtained through normal ARK: Survival Ascended progression. Admins usually spawn it for speed when testing, running events, or outfitting players, which is what the commands on this page are for.
What's the full blueprint path of the Spear?
The full blueprint path is "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Weapons/PrimalItem_WeaponSpear.PrimalItem_WeaponSpear'". Paste it into GiveItem to spawn the exact item: cheat GiveItem "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Weapons/PrimalItem_WeaponSpear.PrimalItem_WeaponSpear'" 1 0 0. Copy it exactly, because the path is case sensitive and must keep its wrapping quotes.
What does the Spear do in ARK: Survival Ascended?
A melee weapon spear that deals piercing damage; a basic craftable tool available from the start of the game.
How do I spawn the Spear by its item ID?
Run cheat GiveItemNum 57 1 0 0 in the admin console. GiveItemNum spawns by numeric ID, which is precise for scripts and control panels. The trailing numbers are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag.
What is the GFI code for the Spear?
The GFI code for the Spear is PrimalItem_WeaponSpear. GFI matches the item by its short blueprint name, so cheat gfi PrimalItem_WeaponSpear 1 0 0 is the fastest way to spawn it without typing the full blueprint path.
What is the Spear class used for in mods or spawn tools?
Spawn managers, loot-table editors, and RCON macros reference the Spear by its class PrimalItem_WeaponSpear_C or GFI PrimalItem_WeaponSpear. Both uniquely identify it in ARK: Survival Ascended.
What's the difference between the Spear GFI code and its blueprint path?
The GFI code PrimalItem_WeaponSpear is a short name for quick spawning; the blueprint path "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Weapons/PrimalItem_WeaponSpear.PrimalItem_WeaponSpear'" is the full engine reference used by GiveItem and spawn tools. Both point at the same Spear.
Does the Spear spawn command work in single-player and multiplayer?
Yes, the command is identical in both. Single-player has cheats enabled by default; multiplayer just requires an admin login first. The Spear then spawns the same way.
Which game is the Spear from?
The Spear is from ARK: Survival Ascended. Every ID, code, and command on this page is specific to ARK: Survival Ascended and its current live build.
How do I give myself the Spear with a cheat command?
Open the admin console and run cheat gfi PrimalItem_WeaponSpear 1 0 0. That gives you one Spear instantly. The three numbers after the code are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag. Raise the first to spawn a stack, or set the last to 1 to receive it as a blueprint instead of a finished item. Verified against the current ARK: ASA build as of June 28, 2026.
Can I spawn the Spear over RCON or on a dedicated server?
Yes. Send the same command through RCON or your control-panel console: cheat gfi PrimalItem_WeaponSpear 1 0 0. If your tool already runs with admin context, drop the leading "cheat". It works the same on hosted, self-hosted, and RCON setups.

What's the difference between GFI and GiveItemNum for the Spear?
Both spawn the Spear. gfi PrimalItem_WeaponSpear matches the item by name and is quickest to type; GiveItemNum 57 uses the numeric ID and is precise for scripting. Same result, different lookup.

Include cheat gfi PrimalItem_WeaponSpear 1 0 0 in your server's kit or spawn script, and set the quantity argument to hand out multiples. Pair it with other item commands from the Codex to build a full loadout.
Is the Spear blueprint path case-sensitive?
Yes. "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Weapons/PrimalItem_WeaponSpear.PrimalItem_WeaponSpear'" must be typed exactly, including capitalization and the wrapping quotes. Copy it from this page to avoid a typo that returns an empty spawn.
Where can I copy the Spear spawn command?

How do I give the Spear to another player?
Look at the player and run cheat GiveItemToPlayer <PlayerID> 57 1 0 0, or stand near them and use cheat GiveItemNum 57 1 0 0 after selecting them in your admin tools. It's the quick way to hand out the Spear during events and giveaways.
What do the numbers in the Spear spawn command mean?
In cheat gfi PrimalItem_WeaponSpear 1 0 0, the code identifies the Spear, then the three numbers are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag (0 = item, 1 = blueprint). So it spawns one standard Spear.
How do I open the console to spawn the Spear?
On PC, press Tab to open the admin console, paste the command, and press Enter. On Xbox and PlayStation, open the pause menu and use the on-screen command bar. Then drop in the Spear spawn code from this page.
How do I spawn a higher-quality Spear?
The second number is quality, where 0 is primitive and higher values roll toward ascendant. cheat gfi PrimalItem_WeaponSpear 1 100 0 attempts a top tier Spear. Quality only affects items that support tiers; on others it's ignored.
What is the class name for the Spear?
The class name for the Spear is PrimalItem_WeaponSpear_C. Class names end in _C and identify the item's blueprint at runtime, which makes them useful for spawn tools, mods, and RCON macros.
How do I spawn multiple Spear at once?
Change the quantity argument, the first number after the code. For example cheat gfi PrimalItem_WeaponSpear 25 0 0 spawns 25 of the Spear. Stacks respect the item's maximum stack size.
When was the Spear data last updated?
The Spear entry was last verified on GameServersCodex on June 28, 2026. We track the live ARK: ASA build, so the IDs and commands here reflect the current patch.
How do I enable admin commands to spawn the Spear?
In single-player, cheats are on by default. On a dedicated or hosted server, log in as admin first with enablecheats <AdminPassword>, then run the Spear spawn command. Without admin access the console rejects it.
Is the Spear a DLC item or part of the base game?
The Spear is part of the base ARK: Survival Ascended game, so no DLC or map pack is required to spawn or craft it.
How do I spawn the Spear as a blueprint instead of a finished item?
Set the final argument to 1: cheat gfi PrimalItem_WeaponSpear 1 0 1. The last number is the blueprint flag, where 0 gives the crafted item and 1 gives its blueprint (for craftable items; on items with no blueprint the flag is simply ignored).
What is the item ID for the Spear?
The numeric item ID for the Spear is 57. Use it with GiveItemNum, cheat GiveItemNum 57 1 0 0, to spawn by ID instead of by GFI name.
Why isn't my Spear spawn command working?
Check three things: admin access is enabled (enablecheats on servers), the code is typed exactly (PrimalItem_WeaponSpear), and all three trailing numbers are present. Copying cheat gfi PrimalItem_WeaponSpear 1 0 0 directly from this page avoids the most common mistakes.
