There are 3 sorts of weapons in the 'polearms' category; the spear, the scythe, and the halberd.
== Spear ==
Spears are a fairly common weapon, and likely one of the first you will encounter as they are employed heavily by [[kobold]]s. Spears are generated with a wide variety of materials.<br>
Spears are only able to deliver '''piercing''' damage, and have a larger [[Size(weapons)|size]] than most weapons, leading to a higher strength requirement but also a larger block modifier.<br>
Their block modifier is severely limited however by their low [[roundness]] (only 10).
Their strength modifier is the second lowest of all two-handed weapons, making them quite fragile.<br>
Spears have a low primary material density, meaning changing the material of a spear will not make it significantly heavier. However, they instead have a very large secondary material density (2500!) leading to them being heavier than standard weapons with no way to alleviate this.
