Then and only then you will understand why throwing > thrusting. I have to side with the devs on this one, no matter what the graphs say. The human body isn't a hydraulic press. It's a bag of fleshy snacks held together with bony toothpicks all wrapped up in a convenient wrapper called clothing and armor. A mere hindrance to the determined predator, really. okay what if the bear "thrusts itself" onto the spear as I thrust it?

OBAMFSpike Posted 3 hours ago Report Posted 3 hours ago (edited) Holy not gonna read all of this! A thrown object carries more velocity than a thrust object because it gains energy as it travels until its terminal velocity or gravity dictates its stop. mass comes into the equation now and if the objects are the same the energy expended in a thrust IS NOT EQUATABLE to the energy of a thrown object. The equations do not compute. Another variable ADDING energy does NOT cause less energy. End of lesson. (and now ill read it backwards to further confuse oneself with nonsense) Edited 3 hours ago by OBAMFSpike
