Who can wield spears?

Spear
Strength/Dexterity Ratio: 10/90
Weapon Speed: 2 seconds
Weapon Material: Metal
Classes that can use:Fighter, Rogue, Guardian, Monk, Ninja

Fighter?
Equipment that a fighter can use:
Weapons: Sword, Club, Axe, Longsword, Spear, Polearm

Dagger:
Strength/Dexterity Ratio: 10/90
Weapon Speed: 1 second
Weapon Material: Metal
Classes that can use: Rogue, Magician, Samurai, Monk, Ninja

So, why spear on Fighter and no dagger, Why Dagger on Sammy No spear?

Historically speaking I think Samurai can wield a spear.

What do you think? Why can Fighter wield a spear but not a dagger, and samurai a dagger but not a spear?

I suggest Fighter not able to wield a spear (replaced with Battle Axe), and Samurai able to wield a spear.

Spears have a purpose and that's being combined with swords. I disagree on making them more viable unless you also intend to make clubs/warhammers/polearms also usable by more classes.

As it is, all heavy weapons can be combined with 1 normal weapon to do all 5 starting classes, for most of them that's combined with a dagger. Spear is the only exception where it combines as i said with swords.
Battleaxes are the most usable because usable by headhunter also.


Either a complete overhaul is needed or no change, no point improving any weapon without redoing the whole lot.

Maybe it could be reviewed for every heavy weapon so they are not that useless

none of them are any less useless than clubs. Do clubs get reviewed also?

Id personnally consider clubs as useless as heavies but thats only my opinion.

I just dont get why I would invest on some weapons considering they deal less dps for the same amount of ee, they are harder to find and you can only use them on the classes thats we usually get through rather quickly except the BA which can be used on HH
