The pikemen of the pandaren clans are the dedicated defenders of their people. Masters of the bambus pan-spear, many pikemen dream of becoming one of the elite defenders of their people, the wardancers. Indeed, a pikeman is said to still be "learning the dance." Troops of pikemen are trained by a wardancer superior, who watches his apprentices to determine who is prepared to engage in the Dance of War.

In combat, pikemen back up the lethal wardancer, peppering incoming enemies with a rain of pan-spears and then guarding the flanks of their champions.

• While not seen before Warlords of Draenor, the expansion pack introduced animations for soldiers standing still while holding long spears and shields. Still, combat animations for those are not implemented, and as such these NPCs are merely holding them for flavor, often in a position of honor guard.
• In real-life, s were elite soldiers and not lancers, but the series associated both ideas of dragoons and spearmen and popularized the term.
