‘Destiny’ Weekly Reset For January 10, Solid Artifact Rolls And A Wretched Nightfall
Destiny players on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One are solidly into the grind this week. Bungie has made no mention of Iron Banner for the month of January yet, but Guardians in search of the coveted Tier 12 (T12) roll for Artifacts have a couple to choose from Tyra Karn with the Weekly Reset for January 10.
After a poor showing last week, Tyra Karn’s Artifact inventory is one of the best all-around selections since the release of Destiny: Rise of Iron. The lowest stat roll is 96 percent of the max for Memory of Timur, while Memory of Perun manages to exceed 100 percent.
The Nightfall presents a particularly challenging fight for Guardians. The final boss room promises to be a bear with the Exposure modifier and the only positive buff being Brawler.
Nightfall — The Wretched Eye
Ocean of Storms, Moon: The Devil Splicers made Taniks Perfected. He’s back in his old Wolfship near the Moon. Board it and eliminate the threat he poses.
Modifiers
- Epic — Heavily shielded and highly aggressive enemies appear in great numbers.
- Brawler — Guardian melee damage is greatly increased.
- Fresh Troops — Some enemy squads have been fortified with additional reinforcements.
- Match Game — Enemy shields are resistant to all unmatched Elemental Damage.
- Exposure — Guardian shields are increased but do not replenish.
Weekly SIVA Crisis Heroic Strikes
Modifiers
- Heroic — Enemies appear in greater numbers and are more aggressive.
- Void Burn – Void damage from any source is greatly increased.
- Small Arms – Primary Weapon damage is favored.
- Fresh Troops – Some enemy squads have been fortified with additional reinforcements.
Wrath of the Machine Challenge Mode — Vosik
The first of two challenges for the Wrath of the Machine Raid tasks players with using all four safe rooms. Activate them using the extra SIVA charges that drop during the damage phase. Since Vosik can be taken down in two or three damage phases, activate two safe rooms during the first phase when they are lit up. Activate the final two rooms during the second phase when they are lit up or go to the third phase if needed.
Rewards include the Perfected SIVA Ornament for Heroic raid gear, an emblem, plus either 385 Light gear for Normal mode or 400 Light gear for Hard mode.

King’s Fall Raid Challenge Mode — Oryx (Guide)
The Destiny King’s Fall Raid challenge caps off this week with special conditions to beat Oryx. The Challenge mode condition is that players must detonate 16 Blight bombs at the same time to bring Oryx’s health down from full to almost zero.
The rewards for Normal Mode are a guaranteed 320 Helmet or Primary Weapon, 320 Artifact, and a Calcified Fragment. The Hard mode loot is the same as normal, plus a 330 Helmet or Primary Weapon, a 330 Artifact, Emblem, and a new Ship.
Please consult this Inquisitr article for a full guide on how to beat the Oryx hard mode challenge.
Court of Oryx (Guide) — Tier 3: Thalnok
This mini-Crota boss plays similar to the final Dark Below Raid encounter in Destiny, with a couple of twists. It will require teamwork, as well. Like Crota, the only way to kill Thalnok is to bring his shields down to force him to kneel while a player whacks him with a sword dropped by a Knight.
