When you hold and aim a Spear, the Spear is facing the right direction (sharp end towards target), but when the Spear leaves your hand, it flies backwards.
I wonder if it's just when wielded by Warriors, as I hold it like a sword still until I begin throwing?

I noticed this too when running while holding a spear. My warrior was holding it backwards =\ I didnt check to see if she threw it backwards like that as I was literally out the door to go to work this morning x). I'll have a look again tonight when I get home.
Might I add, the pre-release spear and scythe look sweet ^-^ Can't wait for Nightfall.

Lol, you reckon a character requires Spear Mastery to hold it facing the right direction? :P

LOL - if so, good thing that they didn't do the same thing for swords and Swordsmanship.

I gotta say it would be awesome if the less points you had into the mastery of that weapon, the more crazily you would flail it around. And the more points you had, the more accurate and non-clumsy your actions with it would be :D hahaha
as for the bug ... wow, hope anet fixes it b4 release :P

*GASP* So, you're saying that if I order one on Friday, those weapons will be included in my inventory (and I'll get the extra slot)?

Another flaw IMO is the way cast spears magically disappear and then reappear in the combatant's hands. (Happens with other objects too, but with the spears it irks me somewhat.) Luckily, the animation flaw you mentioned is easily fixed. Have you reported it yet?

Nope, I usually just post stuff like that here, we have ANet visitors who browse the forums looking for suggestions bugs and fixes...
Or I'll just let Gaile know about it if I manage to catch her online.

Well, even though the spear is thrown the wrong side too his foe -except if yo uwant to bumb his head- the action performing the throw is very flued.
