Started a Javazon recently and wondered why spears aren't used. For Javazons, it makes sense since you need to be able to throw your weapon for most skills. Additionally, you can equip a shield for much needed survivability since the Amazon is quite squishy.
Then I wondered if there's any point to using a spear at all. Are there any classes that would use them?

I've seen WW Barbs use them. I think it really comes down to if you can hit certain attack speed breakpoints. They start quite slow but with high base damage.

Lightning sorc has a use for self-wielding Infinity in some builds

I think there were some Spearazon builds back in the day. It was definitely less popular than javelins, though.
