Okay it isn't a big deal but they should have spears because they are a big part of combat before guns and before anyone says they don't have them in thedas look it is a sharp point on a stick (a piece of sharp medal) . Anyways I think they should since a lot of RPGs seem to be neglecting a weapon that most armies (before guns) had the DAO and DA2 didn't and Skyrim and oblivion abandoned them so does anyone think they should be in DA3.


And sorry for the rant

It sure worked in D&D games but I dunno if implementing them in DAI will be a good idea. New animations would have to be made though I'm not sure that would derail the Bioware somehow.

OMG, the run-on sentences!  

A fair number of the Bioware staff who read these things are professional writers.  If you want to be taken seriously then don't write like that.

And what class would use them? Spears are difficult to control and use. But we surely see templars and mages using them at Destiny trailer.

[DPSSOC]

I'd like to see the addition of more weapons in general. Maybe 3 new weapon classes one for each class. Warriors get polearms (Spears, Halberds, etc.) and then wizards and rogue's get something (wands/rods perhaps and...can't think of anything for the rogue)

[Amycus89]

They will most likely need to make new animations for all weapons either way (I'm at least hoping that they aren't keeping the over-the-top animations from DA2). I would like more weapon choices in general, and a spear would be a welcome addition.

[TsaiMeLemoni]

I guess that would be ok, but I am trying to think of what useful purpose they'd serve. I just think back to DA2 and the Qunari chucking an endless amount of spears that they have stored from somewhere...

I would like dual wielding rogues to get some sort of set of throwing knives or other ranged weapon to use.

Warror class would use them a spears are one of the oldest weapons and aren't hard to use if your taught to. 
And were you kidding about the trailer cause I haven't seen it

I got involved with an argument with Gaider himself on this forum. (And I'm still kind of starstruck.) Point is, don't tell me they aren't reading these.

If it helps, you are far from the worst typist on this forum.

Killing High Dragons seems hard, even when you learn too lol.

[mousestalker]

We need a magic helmet to go with the spear.

Difference there is that our character hasn't been taught to in the past, but is instead experiencing it for the first time as we encounter it


Also, nice stretch but we were obviously speaking of weapons:P

Even some weapons are difficult to master and use. I'm thinking on something like  domesticated dragons or medeval armors. I wonder how peopel could walk on those 

[IElitePredatorI]

If they do body types they should do one for the ladies called Amazon and I would make a Warrior with a Spear. Ok maybe that is just me...

[henkez3]

I don't think new animations would be a problem considering the entire engine is new...

[Maria Caliban]

I like spears and think they'd be a nice inclusion to Thedas. I find their absence a bit odd.

There are BioWare writers who come to this board. Some even post.

It's a different group of weapons, which require their own combat animations (you can't really use two handed weapon animations for a spear) and likely their own skill tree as well. DA:O already had to build everything from the ground and DA2 didn't have enough time to add them and make them justice. They'd be welcome in DA3, but I'm not holding my breath for them. It's the kind of thing that while nice to have, would probably be inefficient from a budgeting/content use perspective.

I will never understand why it's more obvious to BioWare to include giant sledgehammers than spears and halberds.

[DaringMoosejaw]

Spears are a classic martial weapon, used honestly probably more often than swords ever were (but swords were cooler, so that's what most gravitate to). Plus, it's too boringly practical! It's just a stick with a knife on it, but it's effective.

They included warhammers already. The Staff of Parlathan is a mix of spear and staff.
