One of the latest additions to Destiny 2 is Overthrow, new world activities that promise huge rewards. Taking place in the Pale Heart, players must finish objectives before defeating a major boss and claim massive rewards.
While Destiny 2 Overthrow can be a challenge, it’s easier when you know what you’re up against. Follow our Destiny 2 Overthrow boss rotation guide to know how Overthrow works, what to do in each encounter, and the rewards you can expect.
Destiny 2 – What is Overthrow?
Overthrow is Destiny 2’s newest open-world activity where players complete waves of enemies and side objectives before facing the final boss. The first three stages fill a progress bar, which spawns the boss when filled.
Enemy and boss spawns are completely random in Overthrow. That said, there are nine bosses in Overthrow (each with their own “shield” phase that are taken down in different ways.)
