Before the yew spear was downed, I had 277 defense, dismounted, on wimpy, carrying nothing extra.

Ok, so a Yew Spear weighs 1 pound less, gives 12 more ob, and gives 15 more defense than a heavy steel spear.
A Yew Spear is a rare spear, especially now that there are only 3 in the game and yet it seems not much better than a heavy steel spear now. Why were Yew Spears downed so much?
