Major
From Destinypedia, the Destiny wiki
A Major is a high-power combatant of any species or class. They can be distinguished by their yellow health bars and sometimes unique names. These enemies have more health and attack power, than regular enemies, and may be equipped with Absorption Shields their base counterparts lack. Most majors are also more alert, and will often strafe sideways to dodge incoming attacks. Majors can appear anywhere from Patrols to Raids and can come in the form of any enemy species.
Destiny
Majors often have a unique identification, such as a yellow health-bar, or even proper names. However, all races possess common Major versions of their units.

Destiny 2
Majors in Destiny 2 are also identified as Mini-Boss by the game, with their original role of "stronger line soldier" being taken by Elites. Like the latter, they usually have different, more ornate designs and colorations. Killing or finishing a Major has a higher chance to yield Power Ammo. Majors may have names themed around the activity they appear in, like the "Deceived" enemies of Gambit, while other times they are named like their Minor or Elite version. However, some common reoccurring ones exist.
- Bloodguard Centurion
- Bloodguard Incendior
- Bloodguard Legionary
- Esteemed Centurion
- Esteemed Colossus
- Esteemed Incendior
Champions
Champions are a specific type of Major, gifted with an ability that makes them almost invincible. While they can be killed like normal enemies, they are intended to be defeated by using an effect that stuns them. They are commonly found in activities with higher elected difficulties, like Nightfalls and Lost Sectors.
Trivia
- 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.
