Spears, What Weapon Type
OK when leveling-up, there is no Weapon Type Spear like there is for Swords.
So, witch Weapon Type should I level up to be better with using a Spear

Re: Spears, What Weapon Type
There is no spear(polearm) type weapon skill tree. There is only "spear" type weapon in the game.
It's got a solid mechanic though. Could easily implement a polearm tree for some sort of new melee class if they ever make one.

Re: Spears, What Weapon Type
the spear exists for the sole purpose of giving your Mage something to do for the first five floors of the dungeon. seriously.
Re: Spears, What Weapon Type
Mage and/or your Thrown Weapons/Missile Weapons character. Give them a Spear and they have a way to attack if they A) don't know any spells yet (Mage) or B) only have 1 or 2 Thrown Weapons available (like a single rock or shuriken). There's no way to make Spears "better" with Skill Points because they are a stop-gap weapon, given to you until you're deep enough into the dungeon to have a couple spells and/or a small stack of thrown weapons/bow and arrow to use instead.

Boy, I am dumb
Didn't even notice a Spear was always thrown.
In the real world Spears can be used to jab or thrust, NOT just thrown. I think the game designers missed this.

Spear is not a thrown weapon in LoG.tecknomage wrote:Boy, I am dumb

Re: Spears, What Weapon Type
Yeah the spear in LoG is a melee weapon. A throwing spear is normally called a javelin.

Re: Spears, What Weapon Type
Spears are cool. I wish they had their own skill set.
Re: Spears, What Weapon Type
Me to, hopefully a mod or expansion will add that along with new classes.
Hmm what class would be ideal for spears? I'm thinking Valkyrie!

Re: Spears, What Weapon Type
A backrow, armored melee class would be nice to have. The tradeoff would be less damage than you're rampaging, frontline axewielders, but a backrower not dieing for being sneezed at would be welcomed to my teams.
