Crafting Serrated Spear

[Horagen81]

Is there a way to craft a serrated spear for a "Vile Weaponry" spear / Riot Shield built ?
Or will I need to wait until I have cleared the new expansion and get one of those from the natives there.

You'll still proc from traps and kills, it wouldn't be terrible. Besides, why use a serrated spear when you can make a singing spear?

Edit: I think we both mean Taste for Blood (or at least I that's what I was thinking of when typing), but they have good synergy.

Well I will take taste for blood too
but I was thinking of Vile Weaponry though along side Hypertoxicity. Not that I think it will be a good build but i thought it would be fun to see if that could work together with a spear and shield built.

If not then I will go Heavy Armor with bladed etches for vile and hyper as I am still early enough ingame with a backup save.

According the feat text Vile Weaponry is "cold weapon, armor enhancement, or trap", so that would seem to indicate unarmed/gloves with boots (ugh!), or metal armor with blades.

Hmm I think I have misunderstood the requirement then for the trigger ?
I thought all bleeding wounds trigger with serrated or bladed could work as a trigger for the Vile Weaponry like the Sørmirbæren Spirit Staff from the expedition ...

Still I guess it is a balance reason for it since swords not count either

Arh well time for a marked savegame for Shield and Spear. And reload the 4 level up backup I made and go with heavy bladed armor and no shield and see how that goes :D
