Two-handed Spears

We have 1 handed and 2 handed maces...

Why not spears???

Slower, more damage, more reach, but cant use a shield.

I like the idea but I'm not sure if this works since they're basically a projectile weapon and not true melee weapons. Graphically it just doesn't make as much sense launching a massive 2handed spear like it's a thin javelin.

I'd add to the suggestion that they could be restricted to melee skills only and give them additional perks on top of reach and damage, but then they'd suck because this game is not about actual melee. If they ever put in real melee skills, and not just pretend melee that are really just masked projectile weapons/AoE spells like Spearfield, it could work.

They could even use names and graphics for Pikes, Glaives, Halberds, Partisans, Poleaxes, etc. for this class, because why not? Not like this game is keeping track of physical damage types like slash vs pierce afaik.
