The '''Pike''' is a one manned hovercraft like vehicle. The vehicle has 2 machine guns and a larger gun on the front. Players can drive it, though where they can be found in the field is uncertain. It has been frequently compared to the Halo [[halopedia:Ghost|Ghost]].<ref>http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/02/17/bungies-destiny-a-land-of-hope-and-dreams?page=1</ref>

The '''Pike''' is a single-occupant hovercraft-like [[Vehicles|vehicle]] used by the [[Fallen]].
Looking like a cross between a Motorcycle and the prop-driven aircraft of Humanity's early days, the Pike is fast, agile, and like most guardian vehicles, extremely deadly. Reaching a top speed in excess of 132 meters per second, the Pike can chase down and kill even the most impressive of enemy vehciles. Of note is the heavy armor covering the nose of the vehicle, allowing it to sustain an unheard-of amount of damage before engine and structural failure.(citation needed)
==Overview==
The Pike has a pair of small [[Arc]] guns on either side near the front capable of rapid-fire for a short time. [[Guardian]]s can pilot the vehicle, although the driver must be dispatched first.<ref>[http://www.bungie.net/7_Mail-Sack-Break/en-us/News/News?aid=10432 '''Bungie''': ''Mail Sack Break'']</ref>
 
Pikes can boost and barrel roll. This, in combination with their fast speed, makes them a nimble and highly maneuverable weapon in a fight. Unlike [[Sparrow]]s, the boost will eventually wear out and take a moment to recharge.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXDtZ6srXlc '''Youtube:''' ''Destiny Guide - Vehicles : Pike | Destiny Gameplay | PS4 Xbox One'']</ref>
 
It may sound like rusted junk, but it moves like a shark, swift and fast, lightning crackles in the engine, Fallen deploy these for harassing enemies or as patrols.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]] - [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen_Arsenal|Fallen Arsenal]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen_Arsenal#Pike|Pike]]''</ref> They can be easily repaired and put into use as well.<ref>'''Bungie (2016/20/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[Rise of Iron]] - [[Grimoire:Allies/Iron_Lords|Iron Lords]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/Iron_Lords#Lady_Perun|Lady Perun]]''</ref> They are also made from scavenged parts, making them unpredictable.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/8/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]] - [[Unsafe At Any Speed]]''</ref>
 
There is even an event called "Pike Racing", which is a dangerous game as anything goes with weapons hot. Lots of casualties and money involved. Even interesting prizes are involved including [[Eira's Grace|unique Sparrows]], though at times the bids can be swindled with [[The Spider|individuals]] taking cuts of bets and organizing most of the events with securities, clean-ups, etc.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/6/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of Arrivals]] - Item Description: [[Eira's Grace#Lore|Eira's Grace]]''</ref>
 
==Variants==
*[[Heavy Pike]]
*[[Scorn Pike]] - Fitted with weapons that fire [[Void]] projectiles, and equipped with volatile engines that leave behind a trail of damaging fire on the ground when boosting at maximum thrust.

==Trivia==
The Pike has been compared to the [[Halopedia:Type-32 Ghost|Ghost]] from the ''[[Halopedia:Halo universe|Halo]]'' franchise.<ref>[http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/02/17/bungies-destiny-a-land-of-hope-and-dreams?page=1 '''IGN''' ''Bungie's Destiny: A Land of Hope and Dreams'']</ref>

This durability and speed comes at a serious price however. The Pike has essentially zero protection for its pilot, relying instead on the Pilot's quick instincts and reaction to incoming enemy fire to avoid personal damage. With supplementary powers from the Traveler, some pilots can push the Pike beyond its listed operational capabilities and perform maneuvers considered to be unrecoverable by normal humans.(citation needed)
