jump throwing is not my business, so for me it doesnt really matter.
Im a piker however and i can tell you this: people are always complaining about curve stabbing and jumping with pike (wich i dont use), but in fact that is because the pike is totally broken right now. WHY cant we hold our pike between ourselves and the enemy so he cant come closer? no, they can just walk straight through the solid wood and come hitting us in the face. Why can downblock block a thousand stabs at the same time? you can just walk up a pikewall and they will have to spread out and try to get in your back to be able to kill you. wich is also stupid.
fixing it is not only like people that dont think say: omg remove jumping with the pike, omg remove curve stabbing, omg remove blocking with a pike. NO you have to fix it so pikers dont NEED it anymore.
