Javelins are one of the most powerful Throwing weapons in the game. Although they pale in comparison to large rocks, they can be used effectively by any medium size or larger species and deal respectable damage. Javelin use improves only slightly through training the Throwing skill, making them stand out in the early game while losing their appeal in the middle and late. They weigh more than most thrown weapons, but their very low mulch rate (5%) means you won't need too many.
