Looks like PoG already fits well into pattern of craftable rares. Spears always been jack of all trades and defensive weapon, with subpar weight/ob and unique ability to charge.a heron marked longsword [R] 95 30 5d8 15.0 slash 1.5
a heron marked blade [R] 85 40 5d8 15.0 slash 1
a razor-sharp longsword 83 25 6d6 15.0 slash 1
a crimson-hafted battleaxe 75 22 6d6 15.7 scythe 1
a diamond tipped lance [R] 80 0 5d6 18.0 lance 1
a darkened steel trident [R] 85 79 6d6 16.5 lance 2
a partisan bearing the arms of Ghealdan [R] 80 32 4d8(5d8) 13.5 lance 1
And yeah, weapons have their downsides and you have to pick which bonuses/downsides you are comfortable with. I am sure everyone wants 10d10 sword that pierces, charges and stabs, weights 19lbs and has 500 ob/pb.
