I kinda take back what I said here. I did the nightfall with my lvl 27 character and it was difficult. I was constantly getting 1-hit from enemies.

Exactly breh I was getting punished.

I had level 30 dudes with me too and the shyt was hard breh.

Ran thru the Nightfall with me (LVL 29 Hunter) and one other dude, LVL 28 Warlock. shyt was hard as fukk. After finally beating it, he got the Monte Carlo and I got the Thunderlord :mjcry:
I don't even use Heavy's brehs....would have loved to have copped that Monte Carlo. Looks so clean :banderas:

Honestly though, the weekly heroic for 9 strange coins took so much longer. That Arc Burn comes in handy.

What guns are y'all using to beat this Night Fall? And what tactic do you use to best it solo? I ask because I just don't see a way of doing this week's mission solo without some kind of exploit...

Maybe it's possible for a Titan

:ld:

Arc Damage is key. When you get to the locked door, stay behind the cover where you first walk in. When the 4 wizrds spawn, run back up to the top of the steps you came down and slowly pick them off.
Go slow thru the rest until you get to the Phogoth door. Do not enter the Phogoth room, stay in the middle room and you can pick off the adds who come to the door. Run back to the door, pop shots at Goth, then run back to the middle room. If you stay in the front room too long a Shrieker will spawn over head, so do like 5-8 seconds at a time, then retreat to middle room, rinse repeat.

DO NOT GO BACK TO THE FIRST ROOM! This will wipe and send you to Orbit.

This is the way we did it. Slow and steady through the beginning with Arc, let the Wizards follow you up the steps at the door, slow and steady through next spot, kill all from 2 drop ships before killing the 2 Knights guarding Phogoth entrance, then stay in middle and front rooms without ever entering the Phogoth chamber and slowly pick him off, along with the adds. A little time consuming but did it no problem.

There's another way, too.
I exploited the shyt out of it. Lol
:mindblown:

I just watched that video and breh was using Void Damage...

After seeing that I know I can beat this solo. I have the Plan C Exotic (ARC Damage) the Vision of Confluence (Solar) so I really thought the shyt shouldn't be an issue. I didn't know you could go back in that room where you are waiting for Ghost though, that's the hardest part for me.

I go further back where the entrance is. Make sure that area is clear though. Don't want you running into enemies you havent killed.
Unfriendly Giant Rocket launcher saved my ass with those wizards on the last Wave.

True, though to be fair when you look at the numbers all around and the weapons being used and how well they're used it paints a clearer picture.

For the sake of conversation though, would you say that a kill death ratio is the primary indicator of skill?

i dont think so....there's too many factors going on in the game (specials, characters, teammates, objectives, etc.) to solely say k/d determines skills....also, you can kinda 'protect' your k/d if just camp for kills and dont do objectives.....the only pvp game mode where you might be able to say k/d ratio = skills is rumble, and that's cause it's you vs everyone and the objective is to kill....

to me: the only way i think you can determine if someone has skills at a game is to play with them and/or see footage of them play....
