So many times I lfg for high score Nightfalls, and so many times I see people using extinguish in an attempt to boost their score. There's no need for that. A run with extinguish blackout momentum and whatever singe will get you 2.2x points. But raising the power cap by 200, with blackout and momentum will give you 3.8x. You say raising the power cap by 200 is ridiculous? The base power in every nightfall is 540. Most players by now are at least above 740, if not 750. If you raise it by 200, you're still 10 power levels higher than all of the enemies. Add grounded to it, and that's 4.05x. That's an easy 220k on the Hollowed Lair Strike. Easy money, bro. I've tried to tell this to certain fireteams I've joined, and some of them go "Me know how strike points, scrub" out of nothing but stubborn pride. Don't do that. You're better than extinguish. You deserve better than extinguish. Raise that power level. Sincerely, -A concerned Warlock Edit: Starting to get a little sick of people saying "Just don't die." That's easy enough when you're playing with a competent fireteam, but when you lfg with randoms or have friends that aren't so great at surviving for various reasons, when the rest of your fireteam dies, its really hard to stay alive when all enemies are targeting you. And no, a single wipe isn't going to ruin the score. 2 or 3 definitely will, but one won't, which makes the idea that if you wipe you may as well restart anyway entirely preposterous. I made this post for the purpose of helping out fireteams that seem to have difficulty surviving succeed in getting that 200k for Solstice. If you're that super fly, elitist pve god that solos 100k nightfalls with ease, you do you. No one's stopping you.
