Spear/Javelin weapons would actually be pretty interesting. Especially if they could ragdoll and pin enemies to walls like the kunai. Melee range normal attacks and thrown charge attacks. Obviously they would have a slower fire rate than the kunai but they would most definitely deal a lot more damage. The only thing would be how do we get the weapon back? The glaive and kestrel return to us because that makes sense based on their actual weapon counterparts (kind of...) but a single use spear would require us to go over and pick it up after every damn throw. You could just have them teleport back to our hands after a certain period of time (or a brand new one).

Oh and just because they would be Greek god inspired doesn't mean they'd be stupid. It's not like we don't already put elemental mods onto our weapons. It's not so far off already. Just don't make the inspiration too obvious and it'd be fine (ie. the Zeus spear actually looking like a bolt of lightning or calling the Hades spear "Hades").
