Why I ragespecced to an archer.

Only reason I find pikers annoying is because they can thrust into the air and still land a hit on you at the very end of their swing, and still do a lot of damage. Also when they spin like crazy and since the thrust animation for pikes are a bit longer they can just spin while they do their thrust and be able to hit you.

So you don't play the game I see, but still feel qualified to comment?

Clearly you don't. Or maybe you would like to change this statement.

I played WoW back in beta. It doesn't mean I'm qualified to critique Mists of Pandaria.

I think longspear/pike is okay. They are kinda weak 1vs1(with the exception of certain people xD) but stronger than most in group situations.
Crpg could use more infantry classes like this, hell i wish i was one sometimes. If only longspear/pike was 2slot, so you could carry a proper duel weapon.
They rape ass in packs, as it should be.

I dont find longspears or pikes  OP in any way. it's perfectly normal to stab me in the face from within a meter..

People just need to learn how to fight pikemen, always pay extra attention to them, dont charge like an idiot if you dont have a shield. But if you do have one you charge the fuck out of them so your teammates wont have to worry about them.
