You can get the Zodiac Spear from two separate chests.

One, which is pre-planned in the Necrohol of Nabudis requires you not open four other chests before that point in the game. What's worse is some of these chests which cannot be opened are in areas where it seems necessary and/or too easy to loot them because you've just lost your entire inventory moments before.

The other Zodiac Spear chest is deep in the Henne Mine which is not accessible until a great deal of the storyline has elapsed, and has a very slim chance at having the spear. Uhkam is correct however, you can use the RNG Method to guarantee the chest has the Zodiac Spear. But keep in mind you must not advance the RNG until you get to the chest, which means you can do NOTHING but run from the Teleport Crystal to the chest. If you are attacked by a Vampyr Bat (and they are superfluous in this area) it advances the RNG, so does anything you would normally do like attack, cast, heal, etc.. These bats kite a long way so it isn't nearly as easy as it may seem, although if you manage the trek without advancing the RNG, it is guaranteed.
