The reasons i like Pilum
-As it more like Db in the stats and throwing - the damage Ect (coming from db it easier to use)
-Weight 3 not 5 like Cts and what ever VTHA have ?
-Accuracy
I see 2 things that could change
-Hero lock: Why dose it even have it ?
-Ammo: To make it more like Db and even it out to the Cts (15-16)
Atm i have more people in game saying "No i like Cts more" It really dose not make sense to me how this is. With 1 or both of this changes maybe it will be
Pilum on top for once.

I prefer Pilum over CTS as well due to a bit better aiming and faster travel. However CTS has an advantage occasionally when throwing over an obstacle as they drop down more.

CTS are awesome for jump shots because of the drop. I get so many headshot and kills this way. CTS cheaper and more damage.

In game cts has 1dmg over pilum right(this is different on the website?)? That doesn't seem fair at all - the pilum model even looks like it would hurt a lot more getting jabbed by it.
Pilums should be buffed at least to have more damage than cts.

To be fair they do more damage over distance because of speed that why im fine with the damage
Eg it like a H-bow vs a F-bow the Shoot speed on the H-bow helps more then you think

Pilum were added with Legionnaires in mind, which is why they are available to that class but the other throwing released at the same time, the Skullpierce, are not. The Pilum gained one damage over CTS to show that they are meant to be better and were left available to all of the Pikeman hero classes to sate the need for a House Crafted throwing spear. They are not meant to be a direct upgrade to CTS (although they still sort of are, with every stat being better, they just aren't a large improvement in damage and focus on other stats), just a far superior throwing weapon for the Legionnaire class, which seems to be something they have succeeded in doing. In the future a proper House Crafted upgrade to CTS will hopefully be available.
