'''Strike''' is a cooperative mode featured in ''[[Destiny]]''. Strikes represent a middle ground in PvE content between [[Story|Story missions]] and [[Raid]]s in terms of length and difficulty, and are optimized for a [[fireteam]] of three players. Usually, Strikes are composed of a linear series of enemy encounters which may or may not include a mini-boss, culminating in a battle against one or more bosses supported by additional enemies.<ref>[http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2014/apr/28/destiny-hands-on-bungie-xbox-playstationshared-world-shooter '''The Guardian''': ''how the makers of Halo plan to change the future of shooters'']</ref> Some of the newer strikes feature simple puzzle mechanics that make boss fights more challenging.

As of ''[[The Taken King]]'', Strikes have a chance to drop Strike-specific loot that can help gear players up in preparation for Raids. Playing in a Strike playlist continuously increases the chances of better loot on consecutive strikes.

==Strike Playlists==
Higher-level versions of each Strike are available in the Strike playlists. Entering a playlist will launch a random Strike alongside two matchmade players.

===Year One===
These playlists were available during Year One of ''Destiny'', and incorporated all available base game and expansion Strikes. Playlists at higher levels offered greater rewards.

*'''Vanguard Eagle''' - Level 18
*'''Vanguard Viper''' - Level 20
*'''Vanguard Wolf''' - Level 22
*'''Vanguard Tiger''' - Level 24
*'''Vanguard Roc''' - Level 26, added by ''[[The Dark Below]]''
*'''Vanguard Dragon''' - Level 28, added by ''[[House of Wolves (expansion)|House of Wolves]]''

===Year Two===
''[[The Taken King]]'' replaces all Year One playlists with the following:

*'''Vanguard Legacy''' - Level 20 required, includes all Year One strikes only, no [[modifiers]]
*'''Vanguard Strikes''' - Level 36 required, includes Year Two and select "remixed" Year One strikes, no modifiers
*'''Vanguard Heroic Strikes''' - [[Light]] Level 260 required, includes Year Two and select "remixed" Year One strikes strikes, Heroic and one random modifier active
**The Vanguard Heroic playlist replaces the Weekly Heroic Strike; players are rewarded for the first three strikes completed in this playlist each week across all of a player's characters.

===Year Three===
''[[Rise of Iron]]'''s Strike playlists retain the Vanguard Legacy and Vanguard Strikes, but adds two new playlists:

*'''SIVA Crisis''' - Light Level 320 required, includes Strikes from Year One to Year Three with no modifiers.
*'''SIVA Crisis Heroic''' - Light Level 350 required; includes Strikes from Year One to Year Three; three random Heroic modifiers active per week; replaces Vanguard Heroic.

===Year Four===
''[[Destiny 2]]'' features two Strike playlists apart from the Nightfall. Vanguard Strikes are unlocked after completing the [[Story]] mission [[Fury]] and returning to [[The Farm]] to speak to Commander [[Zavala]]. Heroic Strikes are unlocked after completing the first Strike milestone.

*'''Vanguard Strikes''' - Power Level 140 required, includes all ''Destiny 2'' base game Strikes with no modifiers.
*'''Heroic Strikes''' - Power Level 350 required, includes all ''Destiny 2'', ''Destiny 2: Curse of Osiris'' and ''Destiny 2: Warmind'' strikes with a weekly rotating elemental singe and daily rotating modifiers.
===Year Five===
''[[Destiny 2]]'' features four Strike playlists apart from the Nightfall.  Legacy Strikes are unlocked after completing the [[Story]] mission [[Fury]] and returning to [[The Farm]] to speak to Commander [[Zavala]], Only for Non Forsaken Players. Level 30, Level 40, and Level 50 are unlocked after buying Forsaken. Every Playlist has modifiers.

*'''Legacy Strikes''' - Power Level 200 required, includes all ''Destiny 2'', ''Destiny 2: Curse of Osiris'' and ''Destiny 2: Warmind'' and have daily rotation modifiers

===Year Six===
As of ''[[Shadowkeep]]'', there is now only one Strike playlist apart from Nightfalls. This playlist incorporates all Strikes available to the player.

*'''Vanguard Strikes''' - Power Level 750 required, with a weekly rotating elemental singe and daily rotating modifiers.

===Year Seven===
No changes were made to Strike playlists in ''[[Beyond Light]]'', except for the removal of the normal Nightfall Strikes in favour of Nightfall: The Ordeal.

*'''Vanguard Strikes''' - Power Level 1050 required, with a weekly rotating elemental singe and daily rotating modifiers.<ref group="Note">During the initial weeks of ''Beyond Light''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s launch, the minimum Power Level was unintentionally set to 1100.</ref>

==Nightfall Strikes==
{{Main|Nightfall}}
A random Strike is selected each week for the [[Nightfall|Nightfall Strike]], a high-difficulty challenge with the Nightfall and Epic [[modifiers]] active in addition to three other randomly-chosen modifiers; after ''The Taken King'' is released, the latter three modifiers will be manually selected by Bungie each week instead of randomized. Nightfall Strikes do not include matchmaking, requiring players to fight alone or assemble a fireteam of three before starting. Rewards include Legendary and Exotic gear.<ref>[https://www.bungie.net/en/News/News?aid=12607 '''Bungie''' - ''Destiny Update - 02/25/2015'']</ref>

==Trivia==
*In-universe, Strike fireteams are named by a random generator. This generator must be periodically reset, or else it will produce bizarre designations such as "Babydog."<ref>'''Bungie (2017/8/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lake of Shadows#Transcript|Lake of Shadows]]''</ref>
