Which means they really want what's buried in there. If Rasputin was protecting it, it's valuable. We've got to flush those Flayers out."'' - Cayde-6

==Enemies Encountered==
The fireteam starts in [[The Hollows]], just outside of the Dust Palace. Get past the Centurion and Psions to enter the Dust Palace proper. Players will encounter a locked door that Ghost will start unlocking. The room will start to fill with Phalanxes, Legionaries, a Centurion, and a few Psion Operants during this phase. Dispatching them will unlock the first door.
+
  
In the next room Vex and Cabal will be fighting each other. Take them all out and start unlocking the next door. Another wave of Vex and Cabal will start appearing on both floors, including two more Centurions and a Psion Operant. The door will open when all enemies are dead. On higher levels there is a turret that deals Solar damage on the stairs that can be used to defeat enemies more quickly.

Kill all the enemies in the final room to summon the Flayers. There are three Centurions, which may group together, making this fight more difficult. Have Ghost activate the console and the three Flayers will appear in three separate locations. [[Kolar,_Psion_Flayer|Kolar]], who has an Arc shield, will appear on the left side. [[Vatch,_Psion_Flayer|Vatch]], who has a solar shield, will appear in the middle. [[Numoc,_Psion_Flayer|Numoc]], who has a void shield, will appear on the right side. Each Flayer has a strong shield and a powerful, long-range psychic attack, so coordinate your attacks well. Every person should have at least one of the three elemental weapons needed to bring down the Flayers' shields.
+
==Boss==
 +
Players will face three Psion Flayers known as '''Vatch''', '''Kolar''', and '''Numoc.'''
  
Meanwhile there will be multiple reinforcement drops, including one every time a Flayer is killed. These typically includes a Colossus dropped by a [[Harvester]] on the landing pad. It pays to break off from attacking the Flayers in order to regroup and deal with the reinforcements, as they can easily overwhelm players. It is important to make sure everyone concentrates on the same Flayer and to focus on that one until it is dead, as the Flayer's shields will regenerate quickly and take a lot of damage to bring down.
+
*[[File: X icon1.png|15px]] None of these enemies will consume a [[Three of Coins]].
  
==Speed Run Tips==
+
===Mechanics===
{{See also|Speed Run Strikes Guide}}
+
*This strike is pretty straight forward and involves a lot of chasing down Psions.
+
  
*Most rooms in this strike are cleared when you finally find and kill the yellow health bar Psion. So try and memorize where they spawn to expedite their deaths.
+
In this encounter, the player must face three Ultras at the same time. Each Flayer is protected by a shield of a particular element:
  
*The Flayers: They Flayers are also a big pain just because there are three of them. I have found the most effective way to do them is to just be methodical. First clear the room. Next, focus on one Psion. Once it is dead clear the enemies that spawn and focus on the next Psion and so on and so forth. You entire team should have their full attention on one Psion at a time just to make sure their shields never recharge.
+
*Vatch: Solar Shield
 +
*Kolar: Arc Shield
 +
*Numoc: Void Shield
  
*To kill them really quickly it is possible to knock them off the edge with rockets, but won't rely on this method.
+
These shields are unremarkable and follow the standard rules for elemental damage. Note that adds will enter the arena once certain damage thresholds have been met; this includes, but is not limited to, the death of the first and second Flayer. All three Flayers must be killed to complete the encounter.  
==Psion Flayers==
+
Psion Flayers are superior versions of [[Cabal]] [[Psion]] type of [[enemies]]. Psion Flayers' weakspots is their '''heads'''. Fire at them for critical damage.
+
===Attacks===
+
'''Rifle''': Rifle fire is Psion's primary attack
+
  
'''Psionic Blast Wave''':This attack is a powerful wave that travels towards a player along the ground. The wave deals damage to all players in its path. Players can either move out of its way or time their jumps to jump over it. When Psion levitates with its arms to its sides, it is about to use the attack.
+
==Rewards==
===Strategy===
+
===Boss Drops===
Psion Flayers are quite quick and nimble. They will use attempt to dodge your attacks and use cover. Each Flayer has a different type of [[shield]]. Vatch has [[Solar]] shield, Kolar has [[Arc]] shield and Numoc has [[Void]] shield. A team of players with weapons of various [[Damage Types|types of damage]] might be handy.
+
  
*[[Blue Shield]] of Kolar is weak to Arc damage, [[Purple Shield]] of Numoc is weak to Void damage and [[Orange Shield]] of Vatch is weak to Solar damage.

Because Psion Flayers are fast and nimble, rapidly firing weapons such as [[Auto Rifles]] and [[Machine Guns]] might be effective against them. The boss room is also quite wide-open, long range weapons can be employed.

===Strike Hoard Chest===
  
When Psions hide behind cover, you can use [[grenades]] and other explosives to force them out. You can also double team them with your teammates to get them out of cover. Your entire fireteam should focus on killing 1 Flayer at a time. Without focus fire, you can perpetually allowing the bosses to regenerate their shields.
