Have you ever thought the weapons of D&D 5e are a little lackluster? We agree! Join Bill as he gives an overview of what the D&D weapons are, how well they currently work, and how they could possibly be improved. This video focuses on the Javelin, a historic weapon that will really throw you for a loop

Weapon upgrade options are very much lacking as a general issue in 5e I noticed, not only for material variants but also general use. Allowing a throwing strap would be a neat addition of course, as it fits the general idea of expanding and upgrading favored equipment. For my personal experiments, I also granted it a slightly increased critical range (19+), as a very minor bonus. Shieldbreaker sounds like a nice addition!
Love it. But i would add that it doesn't destroy a shield, but rather renders it useless or cumbersome untill yhe javilin can be removed
Outright destroying Shields is a little excessive. Perhaps it could disable the shield's ac bonus until its wearer succeeds on a dc 10 strength check to remove the Javelin.
I'd probably make the throwing strap an atlatl. Have the atlatl unusable in melee but otherwise unchanged.

Naw, just give the atlatl the same stats as the club, 1d4 bludgeoning and Light. It`s not exactly game breaking, and you won`t be totally unarmed after you threw all your Javelins away...
That's not "frustration" that's called playing a game.
