I’m not an expert, but-
Yeah, That’s kind of what the knightly-dudes from the Society of Creative Anachronism [TM] told me:
When using a spear- keep walking / dancing around [as you fight].
Jab with your spear, + then pull it back quickly.
If you swing your spear like a sword, or a hammer,your foe can trap your spear with 2 swords, or with two clubs, or something like that. Swinging your spear is a mistake.
Yikes. Good luck, cheetah-scientist. O.o
Observations:
1. Two thorng tentacles are dangerously close to her body, seeing as they are grabbing onto the spear she is holding, possibly being able to cut her quite easily.
2. A third spine and thorn covered tentacle is still pretty free, looks like it could eadily slash or pike forward.
3. She’s being brought DANGEROUSLY near this things mouth…. Yeah, that’s a lot of teeth, not to mention no bones, so it could just stretch out, swallow you like a python.
Hm… I wonder, if you got one of those silver daggers, smashed it into shards, made it into a grenade, then chucked it at, near, or into our buddy here, would the silver shrapnel be enough to freeze most of it?
Anywho… Uh… Good luck lady?… Just remember to dodge. A LOT…
Aaaand got inside the sweep. Worst place to be as a polearm-user. Yep, she’s kinda screwed.
And we see she has no actual experience using a spear.
