Makeshift pike/spear

[Gaudia Certaminis]

I'd like a weapon that allows me to fight off a wolf without the evil b*stards getting too close. We have brooms and knives in the game. I'd like to be able to lash a knife to a broom handle to make a pike.

From what I understand they have proposed bear spears in a future update, but I don't know if they would be effective against wolves. Would be nice to have a melee weapon that helps prevent going through the struggle sequence, even if it just chases them off without killing them.

I'd read about the bear spears, but haven't heard if they'd be effective against wolves (though you'd think they would be). In a 'real life' scenario there'd be plenty of opportunities to find and create melee weapons (metal poles, branch-clubs etc.) so it would be interesting to have the opportunity to make some. Like you, I'm not that interested in killing wolves, just driving them off.
