**Issue Summary:** Crude Spears thrown at hogs are not causing damage as intended. Due to reports from players we are also looking into other projectile weapons and creatures. **Workarounds:** Stabbing with a spear repeatedly or attacking with an axe / knife appears to damage as intended. ---

I have info to add to this known issue. Giant Crabs and Hogs both shrug off damage from speargun arrows. I normally use those for hunting, and had to craft a spear to use instead when I found that it was taking too much ammo to kill them. ---

Thank you for mentioning you’ve found this occurring with the speargun too - I’ll update my report for the team.
