I was told that Weekly Nightfall Strikes is a good way to get my hands on better weapons. So I give it a try and this is what I discovered. I have a Legendary Pulse Rifle - the 55A-55A-ALLFATE as my primary weapon. As I was fighting my way to the destination point I was constantly encountering enemies that I could not kill with my primary weapon. Meanwhile, despite the fact that I am wearing full set of Legendary Armor with a Light rating of 32, the enemies keep killing me in one shot thus making it impossible for me to complete the mission. How the hell am I supposed to play Weekly Nightfall Strikes when I don't even have a fight chance. Am I supposed to wait around for my special to charge and kill the enemies three at a time every ten minutes? This is insane. Why is my Legendary Weapon not doing enough damage? I don't get it!!!!!!!

You have to build your battle plan around the modifiers. I love nightfalls for the added challenge and being forced to change my battle plan and/or my weapon set. Depending on the modifiers, the nightfall can be a total walkthrough, or a total grind. Part of this week's modifiers are arc burn and solar burn. Considering Cabal primarily do solar, and the psions have a short range arc attack, you can get dropped quite easily in this week's strike. But that's why you equip yourself with arc and solar weapons, to drop them just as fast. I'd gladly help you if you were on PS4, but I see you're on Xbox, so go check out the recruitment page for some folks down to help.
