Iron hasta

The iron hasta is a one handed melee members weapon, similar to the spear. Although hastae offer negative defensive bonuses, the fact that they can be used with a shield provides more defence than a normal spear. To obtain an iron hasta the player can either create one using the Smithing skill or trade with another player. It can be poisoned.
