Welcome to c/WouldYouRather, where we present you with the toughest, most ridiculous choices you never knew you had to make! Would you rather have a third arm that's only useful for picking your nose, or be able to talk to animals but only if they're wearing hats? Yeah, it's that kind of vibe. Come for the absurdity, stay because you've clearly got nothing better to do with your life.

Crossbow was invented in the BC's. Or a solid spear really.
No ranged weapons
Ah ah, no modifying the terms after the initial statement.
Besides, @Stern@lemmy.world 's early prototype crossbow won't do them much good unless they have the upper body strength to draw it, which basically required lifelong training to do effectively.
Same goes for the spear - not much good if you don't have the strength to push it through the ribcage into the heart. Anything else is just going to make the bear angrier.
Bear spears are usually used in a way that you just plant it in the ground and let the bear run into it, hopefully piercing its heart! Or else you have a pissed of bear about a metre from your face lmao So a bear spear is viable if you are brave, dumb, steady and knows where to aim it
'You poked my heart'
