In the MMO shooter Destiny today, Tuesday, July 7th, a new ID week begins. What awaits in the weekly Nightfall Strike, what’s in the Prison of Elders for the Guardians? And what is Variks selling.
Today is the seventh day of the seventh month and thus not only reset day but also Bungie Community Day. Since 9:00 AM this morning, live streams have been taking place, and later in the day, further information is expected, what veterans can expect in terms of special rewards as they enter Year Two.
But first, about the reset.
Weekly Nightfall Strike is against Taniks
In the Nightfall Strike, a strike is selected and equipped with three modifiers, alongside the fixed “Nightfall” and “Epic.” Due to the 2, players must start over if the entire fireteam dies, and the strike is significantly tougher. Those who complete the Nightfall receive 24.5% more experience and reputation for the week, as well as a fun effect above their heads. Additionally, there’s a chance for Exotics and a lot of strange coins.
This week’s Nightfall leads again into the DLC-2 strike “Shadow Thief“. The modifiers are: Switching Light (more melee damage from enemies), Specialist (special weapons deal increased damage), and Arc Burn.
Weekly Heroic Strike is Sepiks Prime
In the weekly Heroic Strike, Sepiks Prime awaits. Solar Burn is active.

Tips, tricks, guides for the challenges in Destiny
Throughout the day, we will present particularly interesting instructional videos: Clips of Guardians showing the servants of the darkness who is the king of Kong here.
Traditionally, Nexxoss kicks things off with a Nightfall run: Steady, careful passage. Nexxoss explains the sections step by step. The Nightfall isn’t without its challenge, due to the many Arc enemies and melee fans.
