In the MMO shooter Destiny , a new week kicks off on November 17, bringing a fresh weekly Nightfall strike.
At 10:00 AM on Tuesdays, the important activities in Destiny will now always rotate. Although, despite an improvement in loot, they may not be as important as they were in Year 1. During Skolas’ time, the “Prison of Elders” was regularly restocked, there was a fresh heroic strike each week, and vendor Variks received new gear. Nowadays, none of that is as significant.
Wow, “nowadays” … you really feel 20 years older when you write that.
Only the weekly Nightfall strike remains. Well, and at Oryx’s Court, a different boss stands there every week in the Tier-3 round waiting for his beating like a sparring partner of the Klitschko brothers.
For those wondering when today’s announced Iron Banner starts: First this evening after the patch.
Everything about the Nightfall strike in Destiny on November 17 goes against Taniks
This week’s Nightfall is Shadow Thief, the strike against Taniks from “House of Wolves.”
The modifiers are:
- Solar Flare – Solar damage is doubled when it comes from Guardians, tripled when it comes from the enemies.
- Airborne – Players deal more damage when they are in the air.
- Catapult – The cooldown for grenades is significantly reduced.
- Exposure – Guardians’ shields are enhanced but do not regenerate.

And this is the guide against Kagoor, the witch, in the Court of Oryx. In short: kill the Eye -> kill the Ogre -> kill the witch.
The tasks here require – just like the raid – some solid teammates. If you need help finding them, check out our article on searching for and finding German-speaking players in Destiny, a raid finder, so to speak.
