Fireteam

A Fireteam is a combat unit of up to three Guardians formed to conduct infantry operations with tactical flexibility. Fireteams act similarly to clans in terms of game mechanics. If all members of a fireteam are downed simultaniously, progress is reset.

Fireteams are optional in story missions and on patrol, but are required in strikes. Players can form their own fireteams if they wish, but if they enter a strike alone, they'll be matched with players of similar rank playing on the same strike mission.
