A Major is a high-level enemy of any species or class. They can be distinguished by their yellow health bars and sometimes a unique name. These enemies have more health and attack power than regular enemies, and can even be equipped with absorption shields. Majors can appear anywhere from Patrols to Raids and can come in the form of any enemy. In Destiny 2, Major enemies are guaranteed to drop Power ammo, which makes them priority targets if the player uses their Power weapon frequently.

Trivia
- Most majors are also more alert, and will often strafe sideways to dodge incoming attacks. This trait is rarely seen utilized by normal variants of the enemy.
- However, some normal variants of melee units (such as Knights, Gladiators, and Marauders) will still attempt to dodge attacks by strafing.
- Certain Majors have a delayed spawning glitch which gives them extra health and attack power of several Majors. A notable example is Randal the Vandal.
