Nerf Javelin
Im sorry to say that but this Weapon is beyond ridiculous. Dont get me wrong, i love playing new weapons and i noticed soon enough that this one is way too strong. if you dont know what im talking about, let me explain why:

Javelin scales with Melee Damage with 100% (We all know building up Melee damage is way easier then ranged).
It has his own critical Chance for an amount of hits (if you have a cursed red Javelin it crits 100% without ever upgrading your critchance)
It counts as a ranged weapon for the Range, which means it doesnt get impacted as other melee weapons with the attack speed there (and building up range is way easier again)
The amount of critical Damage goes up with every upgrade (normal red one has a 3.25 Critdamage multiplier!)
It ALSO has a piercing stat that goes up by 1 with each upgrade and the piercing is only reduced by 25%.
Last but not least it counts as a primitiv weapon so you also get 15 Max HP with 6 Javelins so you are also quite tanky with them.

Im sorry but WHAT? If i compare this with a shuriken which scales with 50% melee damage and only a 1,5 Critdamage multiplier and you NEED to build up critchance to get it working with the bounce is just not right.

This is complain at a high level i know this but this needs to be nerfed. And dont come along now with "then dont play it" thing. That is the most stupid answer you can give if a player like me just enjoys every weapon but just see some huge differences here.

Maybe it needs some tuning, but this is not the best weapon in the game. Its scaling is of course extremely good, it likely doesn't need to scale in every single form the way it does (pierce, damage, proc rate, crit damage), but I don't think there's an inherent problem with having weapons that are stronger late game once they're properly scaled.

I'd argue it's a worse melee weapon than stick (despite the nerfs, stick is still a god-tier weapon), and is a worse ranged weapon than SMG, since both of those are strong at the very start and stay strong the entirety of the game, whereas javelin mainly GETS strong, but the early waves are not going to be as easy as some other weapons.
