The Pike is a single-occupant hovercraft-like vehicle used by the Fallen. The vehicle has a pair of small Arc guns on either side near the front capable of rapid-fire for a short time. Guardians can pilot the vehicle, although the driver will have to be dispatched first.[1]
Pikes have the ability to boost and to barrel roll. This, in combination with their fast speed, makes them a nimble and highly maneuverable weapon in a fight.[2] Unlike Sparrows the boost will eventually wear out and take a moment to recharge.[3]
Variants
- Heavy Pike
- Scorn Pike - Fitted with weapons that fire Void projectiles (rather than Arc), 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 Ghost from the Halo franchise.[4]
