Pike

"The Pike has been repurposed by Spectre R&D for use by Spectre hulls. They are warped into combat and deals Energy, Kinetic and Explosive damage to enemies."

General
The Pike is a Spectre adaptation of the Liberatus faction's Spectral, Pyro and Kinetic Pikes. This player version is equipped with 3 weapons, each inflicting one of the basic damage types.

Advantages
The Pike is better than the Blaze, Chase and Scope Phantoms in almost every way, with more speed, durability and damage output.

Disadvantages
It does not strafe around its enemies like the Blaze Phantom, so it is much more likely to be hit by enemy projectiles. However, equipped with a shield that resists all three basic damage types, it should be able to last longer than the Blaze Phantom regardless.

It also has a shorter range compared to the Scope Phantom, but the greater accuracy (in terms of weapon speed) should make up for that.

Trivia

 * Pikes have a firing arc of 65 deg.
 * Originally, the Pike I/II blueprint incorrectly required Chase Phantom I/II instead of 8 blueprint pieces. This was fixed in the update of late April 2021.
