Kaedwuff 55506270fe Nerfs Spears and Pikes (#6433)
These weapons had a very high damage per hardness value (75%), causing situations where materials with high hardness such as plasteel (hardness 80) and diamond (hardness 100) could create stupidly unbalanced and powerful weapons that are capable of dealing base damages of 60 damage (for plasteel) or 75 (for diamond) per hit.

For comparison, an esword, one of the stronger antag items, has a base damage of 30, and the energy glaive, something generally only found by adminnery, is 40.

Keep in mind also the average character has a maximum of 200 hp, and going below 100 is enough to crit someone enough to pass out and need medical attention or they die.

With these new values even a diamond spear has been brought down to a much more manageable 35 base when two handed.

Also, gold and uranium are much softer, but also heavier, and better for using on thrown weapons than melee.
