History of Minor

Overview

Minor is the lowest enemy rank in Destiny 2, identified by a red health bar. Minor enemies, often called rank-and-file, appear in large numbers and make up most of the encounters in Destinations and Strikes.

Rank differences

Higher ranks have stronger health and shields and are marked by a different health bar color and armor. Players usually meet Major enemies first, with Elite or boss enemies above them. Community sources disagree on which bar color marks each higher rank, so the exact colors are not treated as settled here. Destiny 1 treated minor and major enemies by health alone, while Destiny 2 also uses visual differences in armor and color.
