As it's lighter it also increases your movement speed thanks to lower weightload. The exception is throwing over obstacles where heavier CTS with much more drop can be very useful. I can't compare Warmongers though, never had them.
When you are used to CTS or any other throwable there is no big difference to Pilums besides the damage.

I would get: Plated Gaunts > Wall > Barbutte
then save for db or work on another character.
Should do this, probably the best.

how much is it?

Hard to say. I would say at least 6 mil nowadays. I've heard some people wouldn't sell it for less than 8 mil though.

Yes, it was, but it got buffed with the huge updates in early January. +3 cut and +1 speed.
Also, the 8 mil value is just what I've heard. I don't own one, but would value it around 6 mil.
I own a sun pike, it was a great weapon underrated for its price before the buff, now so even better. I wouldn't sell it at all since it puts my dmg at just 2c under a naval, and its length lets me slash behind anouther slasher. 6m for 66c, 93 spd and 178 length is a no from me, it's stats put it at more.
