Imo: just a straight throwable that does damage, I'm thinking about 60-80. Or maybe 120 with a recharge time.

Yea. Just a normal throwable... but, to go with how sniper works, it should be able to get headshot crits.

Would be very cool to see throwable weapon have headshot stats! Would be cool to have a charge time such as the Huntsman? just a thought!

Thanks ๖ۣۜReimu Hakurei for starting this discussion.

There has been some discussion in the general comments on which slot this weapon could potentially go to. While building it, I pictured this weapon as a primary slot weapon, much like the Huntsman (without the slash/stab attacks, just as a throwing weapon) ...but it is clear that many people see the potential in this weapon being a thrown weapon as well as an alt fire melee weapon.

I'd be very happy with the Primordial Pike being just a throwable weapon.

It was discussed that a possible mechanic could be that you can collect the pike after it has been thrown or wait for the recharge. I thought this was very cool, especially if you have pinned a target to a wall much like huntsman arrows!

..................Maybe even add in a Bleed effect too!

Oooooh thats sounds good!

Thanks for the comments Xenekiel, so glad you like it!

After what you have said, I'm just about convinced that is the way it should be! Especially the additional bleed damage! I imagine the base damage could be quite high to start with, because it is such a chunky projectile and you may only have one at any given time. That being said, I would hope it would be at least the damage of a huntsman arrow, preferably more (even though it could be a secondary weapon).

Let's hope it keeps getting up votes, and it might get Valve's attention at some stage!

Indeed!
let's hope Valve adds this weapon, I would love to see how it turns out.

no, I think the spear would go a very short distance and spears would only insta kill classes with 125 health

I has really hoping that there was something like the huntsman, maybe this could be a throwable spear of some sort?

That could replace the huntsman?

Stats ---

Melee Weapon--
+ On Right Click: Throw the Spear.
+15% Further weapon Reach. (It's a spear, it should have a bit of distance.)
- -20% damage when swung.
- No Random Crits

When thrown;
+ Can Headshot for Critical damage.
- Takes about 10-12 seconds to recharge after being thrown (Can be regained instantly from the supply closet.)

how about the ability to let it go on fire if a pyro flames you (like the huntsman)
and if you taunt you charge forward with it impaling enemies.

i think it should have headshots a huntsman damage bleed but no random crits
