‘Destiny’ Weekly Reset For August 30, Final Golgoroth Challenge, Sunless Cell Fragment Before ‘Rise Of Iron’
The countdown to the launch of Destiny: Rise of Iron and the Moments of Triumph continues with the weekly reset for August 30. PlayStation 4 and Xbox One players seeking to complete the steps to receive their Moments of Triumph have their last shot at getting a couple of Calcified Fragments while time on others are running out.
This marks the final time Golgoroth will be available for the King’s Fall Raid Challenge mode while Kagoor also makes his final appearance in the Court of Oryx before the launch of Destiny: Rise of Iron on September 20. Players will receive Calcified Fragments that count towards the Eris Morn’s Revenge Moment of Triumph by completing these two activities as well as a third from completing the Sunless Cell Nightfall this week.
Meanwhile, Destiny players shouldn’t sit on completing the Exotic Sword quest if they haven’t already. Part of the quest line requires waiting until the next Armsday to collect a piece from the Weaponsmith. This gives players until September 14 to complete this step of the quest line.

King’s Fall Raid Challenge Mode — Golgoroth
The challenge mode twist for Gologorth is that all six players in the fireteam must hold his gaze at least once in the same phase. This means all six players must hold the gaze in succession without receiving the “You’ve failed to capture the gaze” message before passing it around the entire fireteam.
The rewards for Normal mode are a guaranteed 310 armor piece (excludes helmet) and a Calcified Fragment. The Hard mode loot is the same as normal, plus a 330 armor piece (excludes helmet), a 330 Artifact, and an Emblem. The regular Golgoroth loot rewards are also a possibility.

Court of Oryx (Guide)
Tier 3: Kagoor
This is one of the more challenging boss fights in Court of Oryx simply because there’s a lot going on between dealing with multiple minions, including Ogres, and attempting to gain buffs.
Kagoor is immune to damage until the Servite Ogre is defeated. This Ogre has loads of health and other Ogres to help it, along with Devoured Shadows and Maleficent Eyes. Destroying the Eyes gives a buff called Ogre’s Fury that stacks up to three times and increases the damage done to Ogres.
Players will need to use the rocks and pillars to avoid the Servite Ogre’s attacks and bring it down. Once the Servite is dead, attack Kagoor quickly with heavy weapons and super abilities to destroy the Wizard.
