Can I play Goliath's Spear on Goliath(10/10 no SA) as if it were a weapon, or must it be in Battle and then he gets to keep it??

Golaith's Spear : Worth 8/10 if used by a giant, Goliath may retain this card until discarded.( I think, I paraphrased)

It must be played on him in battle for him to keep it like a WC enh.

Special abilities like these must activate in battle first. Normally, a weapon-class enhancement can be placed on a warrior-class character outside of battle because that is a game rule. However, since Goliath is not warrior-class, the game rule does not apply to him. That is why Goliath's Spear and Goliath's Armor were created.

Is the ability on Goliath's Spear sort of treated as an identifier? Like, in a FbtN battle, does Goliath's Spear lose the ability to be 8/10 or something?

Yes, Goliath's Spear would lose the ability to be 8/10 in a FbtN battle, but the name-on-name bonus would still work. Also, I believe that Goliath would not be able to retain the spear in a FbtN battle, because that is part of the SA.

Goliath would be able to retain his armor though because that is listed in the idenifiers and not in the Special Ability

That I know.

What is FbtN and SA?

FbtN = fight by the numbers (negate all)
SA = special ability
