I have a decent understanding of how the extra affixes are chosen, but I am curious about how the +1-3 Javelin & Spear Skills automod is handled.

If I understand correctly, the automod will be re-rolled when the crafting is done.

1) am I guarenteed at least a +1 or is it possible that the automod disappears entirely?

All non-magic/magic/rare/crafted amazon spears have automods.

Quote:2) If the automod remains, but is re-rolled, does it use the same ALvls as the Harpoonists, Spearmaidens, and Lancers affixes? (i.e. will ILvl  detirmine whether it's eligible for +3) or does it just pick randomly (33% chance of each) regardless of ILvl?

There are three amazon spear automods:
+1 javelin/spear skills, requires alvl 1, frequency 3, can spawn on non-magic/magic/rare/crafted
+2 javelin/spear skills, requires alvl 40, frequency 2, can spawn on non-magic/magic/rare/crafted
+3 javelin/spear skills, requires alvl 60, frequency 1, can spawn on non-magic/magic, but not rare/crafted

So on a crafted amazon spear, there are basically two cases to consider. If it's alvl 1-39, it gets +1. If it's alvl 40+, it has a 3/5 = 60% chance of +1 and a 2/5 = 40% chance of +2.

(Amazon javelins are a subset of amazon spears).

Quote:3) Am I correct in thinking that the automod does not prevent the selection of +1-2 Amazon Skills or +1-2 Javelin & Spear Skills from group 125 of the affixes?

Thanks

Correct. The automods all have their own affix groups, starting with 300. The amazon spear automods, for example, are affix group 302.
