A buddy of mine has been really into the idea of using spears lately. He tends to get his character ideas from movies he finds to be awesome, and I imagine he was watching 300 when the idea popped into his head to have a Spear/Shield wielder that could attack reach with his Spear, and shield bash with his shield in adjacent squares.
Monkey Grip is widely considered to be a waste of a feat, since PA gives a better advantage to damage at the same penalty, but what about using reach weapons?
Just from reading the rules, it implies longspears and spiked chains and other such 15'+ two handed weapons are included in the ruling on Monkey Grip, but speaking from a logical standpoint, I can't even begin to imagine a person effectively using a 15'-25' longspear in one hand, even in a crazy, chinese martial arts movie.
What do you guys think about the subject?
