Pyramid Scales are entities deployed by the Pyramids. They have been observed on Io, where they inject Darkness into regions of Echo Mesa to undo the Traveler's work.
Overview
Pyramid Scales are smaller Pyramids that hover over the Echo Mesa in Io. Pyramid Scales begin the Contact Activity, in which the team must bank motes and kill Taken Blockers.
Trivia
The first Pyramid Scale was seen in the Garden of Salvation Raid, right after killing the Sanctified Mind, the remnants of the Pyramid it protects seemingly flies up and reveals a Scale.
Pyramid Scales seem to be "dropships" for the Darkness enemy type, similar to Skiffs for Fallen enemies and Tomb Ships for Hive Enemies. This implies the existence of some sort of "infantry" forces for the Darkness.
