The '''Heavy Pike''' is a variant of the [[Pike]] used by the [[House of Wolves]] and later the [[House of Dusk]]. The vehicle was first introduced in ''[[Destiny]]'' update 1.2.0, and could be found on [[Venus]] inside one of the caves in the [[Ember Caves]] in [[Patrol]], and the [[Ash Coves]] during both versions of the [[Winter's Run]] [[Strike]]. In ''[[Destiny 2]]'', a trio of Heavy Pikes can be found in the [[Glade of Echoes]] on [[Nessus]] during the [[Exodus Crash]] Strike, in [[The Rig]] on [[Titan (moon)]] during a random event, and various Heavy Pikes can be found in [[Maevic Square]] in the [[European Dead Zone]] on [[Earth]] during the ''[[Curse of Osiris]]'' [[Story]] mission, [[A Deadly Trial]].

The vehicle was first introduced in ''[[Destiny]]'' update 1.2.0, and could be found on [[Venus]] inside one of the caves in the [[Ember Caves]] in [[Patrol]], and the [[Ash Coves]] during both versions of the [[Winter's Run]] [[Strike]]. In ''[[Destiny 2]]'', a trio of Heavy Pikes can be found in the [[Glade of Echoes]] on [[Nessus]] during the [[Exodus Crash]] Strike, in [[The Rig]] on [[Titan (moon)]] during a random event, and various Heavy Pikes can be found in [[Maevic Square]] in the [[European Dead Zone]] on [[Earth]] during the ''[[Curse of Osiris]]'' [[Story]] mission, [[A Deadly Trial]].


It has a slower rate of fire than the standard Pike, but fires splash-damage rounds. Also, strafing causes the Pike to fire bouncing [[Shock Grenade]]s, much like a [[Skiff]]. Like the ordinary Pike its boost will eventually run out and requires a moment to recharge. Its armor is significantly stronger than a [[Sparrow]] or Pike's.

While an ordinary Pike has only one central engine, the Heavy Pike has seven: four upper offset engines, two lower maneuvering engines, and a central, boosting engine. When boosting, the maneuvering engines will align with the central engine, much like how the [[Cabal]] [[Interceptor]]'s engines align together for a short-term boost.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/5/19)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen_Arsenal#Heavy_Pike|Heavy Pike]]''</ref>

Heavy Pikes have also been ultilized by the forces of the [[Scorn]]. The [[Baron]] [[Yaviks, the Rider]], terrorized the [[Reef]] atop a Heavy Pike—alongside her [[Pike]] gang—before she was tracked down and killed by the [[The Guardian|Guardian]] in their quest to avenge the death of [[Cayde-6]].<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Target: The Rider]]''</ref> Years later, Heavy Pikes began to become more common amongst the Scorn's arsenal, as several were found throughout [[Savathûn's Throne World]].<ref>'''Bungie (2022/2/22)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[The Witch Queen]] - [[Mission]]: [[The Ghosts]]''</ref><ref>'''Bungie (2022/2/22)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[The Witch Queen]] - [[Mission]]: [[The Cunning]]''</ref>
