The Psion Flayers are a unit of highly powerful Cabal Psions, mainly found within the Dust Palace Strike, and Challenge of the Elders. Each one has a different type of shield, making it difficult to engage them all at once.

Overview

The Psion Flayers are orders of magnitude more powerful than the average Psion. Their psychic attacks have far more range, and were able to fight and win against Rasputin in the Dust Palace. If Warlock speculation is true, they are even responsible for Phobos' current position over Mars, and are waiting to unleash it as a weapon.

They are also active against the Vex on Mercury.
