The spear may not be effective right now but its totally hilarious. Spent an enjoyable time throwing spears at each other in spars this afternoon. Its especially cool how you can pick up a spear that someone else throws at you, this happens all the time in the sagas...

It would be cool if we could wield a spear one handed but just use it for throwing then, as other people have said... Basically, make sting check for either sword or spear + empty hand?

Also, please don't forget to buff the druid helm! :)

I agree that it's probably not worth using, but if we play "what ifs", technically you can still run into situations where the bonus damage is worthwhile. For example, punching through 25% of a block with cleave. Steel sword might lose enough damage to not instakill, B12 might not.

Also worth noting that metal quality weirdness this world is unbalancing some things. I think everyone agrees this isn't what we'd want for next world, so making everything work with current systems isn't necessarily optimal.
