| '''Boneflayers''' are a unique [[Hive]] mechanical construct developed and utilized by the [[Forum:The Banished Swarm|Banished Swarm]]. These vehicles were created by the renegade Hive as a means to not only maintain their small numbers, but also have a powerful, swift assault weapon to quickly raid, ruin and escape loyal Hive domains. They were encountered by the Guardians across the Sol System as the raiders began plundering the old worlds. | | '''Boneflayers''' are a unique [[Hive]] mechanical construct developed and utilized by the [[Forum:The Banished Swarm|Banished Swarm]].

| Atop the Boneflayer is a pair of technological cannons it uses as its main heavy ordnance which, after charging for a few seconds, fires eight {{icon|Arc}}/{{icon|Strand}} Jade Lightning shells in quick succession, dealing incredible damage to Guardians, even outright killing them with a minimum of four rounds on normal difficulties. Up the hull is a series of leaking openings capable of firing a vast volley of {{icon|Void}} Entropic Darts, which temporarily stay in the air for a second before all immediately chasing down their targets. At the top of these openings is another angled, vent-like structure that fires off arcing, explosive volleys of {{icon|Void}} Entropic Flares to press enemies out from cover, creating caustic and suppressive areas-of-denial. At the nose of the vehicle is an opening which can fire off a torrent of {{icon|Arc}} Darkness much like a flamethrower, dealing significant damage to any opponent engulfed by the cone of Dark "flame".

| Although the weapons may take time fire and actually become a threat, as well as the Boneflayer's considerable weakness compared to other [[Major]] vehicles like [[Fallen Walker]] or [[Goliath Tank]]s, the Boneflayer's strength lies in its incredible maneuverability. It is capable of unmatched speed perhaps only rivaled by a [[Sparrow]], easily turning on a dime almost instantly and can quickly flank a target within seconds. In this agility, it can also use its wicked "wings" to cleave a target apart, angling it towards them and charging them at remarkable speeds. If an opponent gets too close, the Boneflayer can easily use its blade-like wings and jolt forward into them or discharge a blast of {{icon|Arc}}/{{icon|Strand}} Jade Lightning around it to knock them away should they survive the incredible power of the occult energy.
