Both Ascended Giants only had one projectile left each.
The sacrificial spears thrown by the Dark Apostle were undoubtedly more powerful, but he only brought 2 of them to this duel.
The Divine Harpoon originally carried 3 harpoons into the field, of which two had already done a good job of stripping his adversary of his defenses.
Both human phase lords knew that they had reached the critical junction.
Given how much the earlier harpoon had messed up the Dark Shield, Ves had little confidence that it could provide adequate protection against the next throw.
The Divine Harpoon's throwing capabilities were too good. Ves had no doubt that the strategos of the Faceless Giants would be able to thread the needle and sink a harpoon straight through the fairly large gap in the damaged D-arm!
That meant that the harpoon would only have to overcome the defenses of the Dark Bulwark before it could sink its anchor-like tip into the flesh of his true body.
