Xander's Lance (マークスの指南槍 Mākusu no Shinan Yari, lit. Marks' Guide Spear) is a Lance that is introduced in Fire Emblem Fates. Eponymously named after Xander, Xander's Lance is an extremely powerful weapon that is blessed with high Might, alongside granting its wielder bonuses to their Skill and Resistance. The lance's strengths are, however, offset by the effects that it triggers post-combat, including reductions to its wielder's Strength and Skill, alongside raising the Strength of nearby foes.
