Scytales are a unique group of powerful Vex, as well as simulated Hive, Taken, Cabal and Scorn enemies, that are encountered in Override and Expunge missions. In the case of the Champion Scytales, fighting them requires an Anti-Barrier, Anti-Overload or Anti-Unstoppable mods in order to disrupt them. Once killed in the Override, they will drop Energy Spike which can be deposited in the Vex Terminal.

Trivia

• Major variants of Scytales were added to the game with Override's addition to Arena Ops in Monument of Triumph, where they can be found on lower difficulties of the activity.
  • Interestingly, the Barrier Colossus Scytale is replaced by an Elite Colossus instead of a Major one.
• Despite Scorn being an enemy type in Override, Scorn Scytales did not exist during the time of Season of the Splicer, this was due to the fact Scorn Champions weren't added until Season of the Lost.
  • Scorn Scytales were added to the activity upon its return in Monument of Triumph.
