Where to find the Spire of the Watcher quest in Destiny 2

The Spire of the Watcher dungeon will be available to everyone. Before you jump into the dungeon, make sure to make your way to the Tower and speak with Ikora. She will give you a quest for the dungeon, and then you will be able to find it above Savathun’s throne world as an encounter. You and two other players can jump into it at any time for three players to go into it. Each encounter in the dungeon will award you some unique reward specific to the dungeon.

The quest is called Ares Desperado. Make sure to have this before you enter the encounter and start it.

There have been a handful of leaks surrounding this dungeon, which the Bungie team has confirmed. The cosmetics will be more cowboy based, and the exotic bow, the Hierarchy of Needs, will be one of the rewards you can earn, but there will be a low chance of acquiring it. You will need to run the dungeons several times to grab it potentially. You’ll want to repeat it with your preferred Destiny 2.
