Acquisition
Pennant's main blueprint can be obtained from defeating Blite Captain, Glacik Commander, Lektro Commander, or Pyr Captain in Empyrean missions (at Kasio's Rest on Saturn Proxima, Flexa in Veil Proxima, or sometime Korms Belt in Earth Proxima). The blueprint pickup is shared across the entire squad and can be traded between players.| Drop | Chance | Expected | Nearly Guaranteed |
|---|---|---|---|
| Main Blueprint | 5% | 20 kills | 135 ± 45 kills |
Expected refers to total number of runs a player can expect to receive at least one of each drop associated with the respective values.
Nearly Guaranteed refers to the total number of runs a player needs to obtain a 99%, 99.9%, and 99.99% probability to receive at least one of each drop associated with the respective values.

NotesEdit
- Upon killing an enemy with a heavy attack, Pennant's attack speed rises by 50%, indicated via an icon and timer next to the health bar. The buff duration is dependent on the combo multiplier at the time of the heavy attack, beginning at 2 seconds with no combo counter and increasing by 4 seconds for each combo multi; Duration = 4s × (Combo Multi - 1) + 2s.
- Making multiple heavy attack kills within the buff's duration will overwrite the remaining time with the new one. For example, if there are still 14 seconds left for the buff, and a heavy attack is made at a 2.0x combo multi, the duration will then become 4 × (2.0 - 1) + 2 = 6 seconds instead of refreshing or adding to the previous 14s duration.
