So today i beat the Nightfall in under 30 minutes, easy as hell, a lot of people have done it this week though there are those that struggle, both solo and in a full team. While i was doing the weekly heroic i came across a nice little spot that minimizes hassle from both the Boss and the Adds he spawns, i got to thinking "I wonder if i can use that in Nightfall"
Since the Nightfall was my next step anyways i figured why not, if i die then ahh well, no biggie, but sure as shit it worked like a charm, from this position you can get the boss down fast, I'm talking stupid fast. Timing from the first shot fired to the kill shot i clocked in at 1 Minute and 35 Seconds, though i have no doubt somebody with rockets could wreck him faster.
This method would work for both Teams and Solo players i think, though i'd recommend only one team member use that spot, otherwise you're drawing way too much attention to yourselves.
The death at the end was a complete derp on my part, since the boss went down i figured the enemies would de-spawn like they always do, but that skiff just wanted me dead, luckily enough since it happened after the boss went down, it still counted as a completion.
Enjoy before it get's fixed!

Nice job! However, I think it's best to do the nightfall strikes before the weekly heroic. This way, you get an additional 100 rep for doing the heroic since you have the bonus XP. But, to each their own!
