Particularly when a human with ranged attacks proceeds to use those attacks the very second you use a healing item, making the ranged attack unavoidable due to the healing animation.

* WhatTheFuAreYouDoing: Downplayed. Every weapon type has an AI moveset for inexperienced combatants who are bad at using it (like bandits and fresh conscripts). Their attacks can still deal solid damage if they connect, but are slow, highly telegraphed, and visibly throw their wielder off-balance, making them much easier to avoid and punish than the standard weapon movesets that you and your properly-trained enemies use.

* BladeOnAStick: Spears are a primary weapon in Japanese armies in the Sengoku Jidai, from peasant soldiers to high-ranking elite troops. Because they scale off Constitution primarily, spear users will naturally have fairly large HP pools, and combined with the very long reach and above-average damage potential inherent to spears make them a popular weapon choice with a safe "poking" playstyle.

** Oddly enough, the ''Sword'' very much embodies this trope as well. The sheer size of its skill list means Sword users will be scraping by for every skill point they can get when starting a playthrough with it. Early on it lacks access to its signature reversal skills, and by design lacks a powerful basic offensive skill like Odachi's Twin Moons, Tonfa's Pulverize, or Dual Swords' Sign of the Cross/God of Wind. Until then, it comes down to really learning the fundamentals and having to work around how to approach enemies and dealing with the weapon's gaps in its ability to apply pressure. It also has more secret skills than any other weapon type in the game, with each DLC having at least one more move for it. Once its skill list is built up, the sum becomes ''much'' greater than its individual parts. It may not reach MasterOfAll territory, but it becomes a damn good JackOfAllStats par excellence.
