Maybe that worked for him in the video, but NO WAY IN HECK you're doing that with Cerberus Vae on the nightfall, esp this week with no burn modifier. Also the area in the center you hide behind is one thing, but when he runs to where you enter the final room at, you WILL randomly have Phalanxes spawn right on top of you and they WILL one shot shield kill you. Thats not applicable whatsoever on this nightfall
I don't know what it did for you and I don't run this solo on the nightfall but did all 3 of my characters this way with a 3 man team and it works fine. I did it solo on the weekly with my titan last night without doing one so yes it does work for me
