Dungeons are an endgame activity playable by up to three players.
Overview
Dungeons are Raid-like activities that feature unique mechanics and bosses throughout. They are longer than Raid Lairs, but remain shorter than proper Raids, and can take less than an hour with a sufficiently coordinated fireteam. The first Dungeon, The Shattered Throne, debuted in Forsaken and was made available as an always accessible activity in Shadowkeep.
Difficulty
Dungeons are often much simpler and less strict than raids in a variety of ways. During encounters, fireteam members can be resurrected infinitely and the encounter will only wipe if all members are dead at the same time. There are no revive tokens or timers for light to fade. Furthermore, players can self-revive after 45 seconds. Unlike raids, bosses will never enrage and allow for as many damage phases as necessary to kill them.
