Destiny 2 is officially out and while gamers are going through the various quests and Strikes, you may find yourself a bit hung up on how to defeat a boss or two. In this particular guide, we’ll showcase how to defeat the Boss Hobgoblin who appears in The Pyramidion Strike.

After you have gone through the warpgate and found yourself at another altar chamber with bottomless drops, your team will be facing against the boss which is the Boss Hobgoblin, the genesis mind of the Pyramidion.
- Note: The Boss Hobgoblin will appear at the edge of this arena and can retreat to a raised perimeter.
