Were these types of javelins still being used in EB's timeframe? if yes I havent seen any type of heavy javelin used in the east (by Armenians, or mercenaries of the east)

I think he means any big javelin, not necessarily a pilum type, or soliferum. and from what I know about Achaemenid warfare, they did indeed prefer javelins, at least in the cavalry arm.

Yes, but were these big javelins being used in EB's timeframe? and if yes will they be javelins with like an ap attribute?
