>ironically melee weaponry is pointless
how many career melee kills you got? I mean, I ask because in order to pass judgement on something's value or use you've surely actually used it enough to arrive at that conclusion through familiarity, right? not just writing something off out of hand.

>melee weapons in general are just completely useless which is why you dont see anyone take them except for joke/challenge loadouts
stun lance +ballistic shield is great on bugs, especially predator strain bugs, and stun baton/war axe/saber are unironically some of the best voteless killers you could use

the flag definitely needs to be better than the stun lance though since it occupies not only your support weapon slot but also takes up a stratagem slot.

>Spear as in the strategem not the lance.
you separated "spear" and "flag" with a comma... and now I realize you're talking about the SPEAR launcher, which I completely forgot existed
