In the MMO shooter Destiny, the weekly Nightfall strike for the week of April 14th is against Sepiks Prime on Earth.
These are turbulent times in Destiny. The news is overwhelming, there are some blazing flames attracting attention. Maintenance is also scheduled for tonight, and the patch is coming, but everything is overshadowed by the DLC House of Wolves and the information that comes out of it.
By the way, speaking of panic: There is no Iron Banner launched today, April 14th. So that was not a trick by Bungie.
Anyway: In such restless times, it is nice to rely on the Weekly Reset. With the reliable punctuality and ruthless relentlessness of Liam Neeson in a “Liam Neeson” movie, it is also happening on Tuesday, bringing new things worth shooting at.
In the week of April 14th, the Nightfall takes place in the “Devil’s Lair” against Sepiks Prime.
The modifiers for the Nightfall strike on April 14th
The 5 modifiers are:
- Nightfall – If all Guardians die, it will go back to orbit, the strike must be started anew.
- Epic – the difficulty is increased, the Nightfall is the hardest among all strikes.
- Angry – enemies cannot be halted even by damage hits.
- Lightswitch – enemies deal double melee damage, and the lights may go out.
- Arc Burn – both Guardians and enemies deal greatly increased Arc damage.
In the heroic Weekly, Lightswitch is active.
Which weapons are recommended for Sepiks Prime’s Arc damage?
As weapons, guns with Arc damage are recommended:
- Primary weapon: One might grab the scout rifle Ir Yûts Fang or pull out the Gjallarhorn again. Soul’s Release is also a sought-after weapon.
- Special weapons: As special weapon, perhaps the sniper rifle Patience and Time. Of course, Whisper or legendary sniper rifles with Arc damage from the Iron Banner are also possible, or the LDR-5001
- Heavy weapons: A machine gun like Thunderlord or Ir Yûts Song can clear here.
