History of Falcon

The Falcon is a Sparrow-type vehicle used in the opening encounter of the Equilibrium Dungeon (Board the Harvester).

Overview

According to BoostMatch, one player rides the Falcon around an outer ring loop and collects darkness (Shadow) pools to build the Gathering Shadow meter, which earns the Shadow Novice buff used to disable enemy shields. A "Creeping Shadows" debuff kills the rider if the next pool is missed for too long, and teammates stepping on the pools can break the plan, so callouts matter. Behemoths (turrets) are the heavy enemies met along the loop.

Sources disagree

Shacknews describes the same section as three Sparrows driving tunnels to collect Gathering Shadow energy, with Creeping Shadows resetting each time energy is collected, and does not name a Falcon. Other guides (Blazing Boost, TimeSaver) mention Sparrow routes without naming it either. Details such as how many riders are needed are therefore not consistent between guides; verify in game.
