‘Destiny’ Weekly Reset For October 6, Kagoor Returns To Court Of Oryx
From the archive: published Oct 6, 2015, 11 years ago. Details may have changed since.
The Weekly Reset for Destiny has arrived for the week starting Tuesday, October 6. PlayStation and Xbox owners can look forward to a new Nightfall with a set of interesting modifiers plus the return of the first Tier 3 boss fight in Court of Oryx.
This week’s Nightfall features the Shield Brothers Strike and a set of modifiers that appears daunting at first. Chaff disables your radar while Exposure gives you increased health, but you don’t replenish health either. This is topped off with the “Match Game” modifier, which makes enemy shields even more resistant to attacks that aren’t of the same element type.
Fortunately, the Shield Brothers Strike is not particularly long, and the Nightfall version doesn’t include too many Major (yellow bar) enemies with element shields. Now if we could only get Bungie to address the unfortunate changes to the Nightfall reward structure.
Nightfall – Shield Brothers
Dreadnaught, Rings of Saturn Travel deep into the heart of the Dreadnaught in pursuit of a Cabal assault team. Stop it from detonating the Hive ship’s core.
Modifiers
- Epic – Heavily shielded and highly aggressive enemies appear in great numbers.
- Brawler – Guardian melee damage is greatly increased.
- Chaff – Player radar is disabled.
- Match Game – Enemy shield are resistant to unmatched Elemental damage.
- Exposure – Guardian shields are increased but do not replenish.
Court of Oryx (Guide )
Tier 3: Balwur
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, though, 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 bring him down.
