Right, so the only reason to run nightfalls right now is if you are running low on poorly rolled weapons, strange coins or sparrow kits. But with the introduction of nightfall scoring I have an idea.
First make nightfalls harder:
Make burns do more damage against guardians, have more boss battles and more complex mechanics
Second make a secret "platinum tier" where if no one dies and gold tier is achieved in 15 mins, platinum is unlocked at the end.
Upon achieving platinum, weapons that drop at the end of nightfalls can roll with special perks:
E: An Auto rifle with triple tap and firefly
A scout that ramps up rate of fire with each trigger pull
A hand cannon with less bloom and or persistence
And a pulse that has a chance to fire on or two extra bullets in a burst
Stuff like that, but those are ideas.
Let me know what you think.

I would like to see a nightfall vendor. Have bounties just for the NF. Then if you complete all of them (similar to the bounties that Shaxx had) you get a nightfall package, which is 10 motes, 10 coins, and a nightfall tier reward (guarenteed weapon or armor) and a chance to get the nightfall ship "Through the Flames" which grants you the flaming blue head each nightfall completition.
