I did the spider tank part with ice breaker, so I could just sit at the back popping shots into it without running for ammo, since the packs have silly cool down times :(

And your Ice Breaker. Because Shanks.

(seriously those shields take a ridiculous amount of punishment even from Void damage!)

This. Switching between Ice Breaker and a legendary Void sniper pretty much lets you solo it this week. For the last boss just stay in the room to left as soon as you walk into the area.

Re the PvE nerf because of people crying in PvP. DeeJ from Bungie replied on Reddit to say that they have "noted" it....
 
Quick question, has anyone got any legendary armour that increases heavy weapon ammo carry? Wondering if its possible without raid boots or exotics.
 
Oh, I didn't realise that you had a special modifier on damage. I thought that all the modifiers were against you as it were. That would explain why my void machine gun was ripping people apart. I assumed it was just mirroring my awesomeness.

Feel the void burn :p

What class and level are you?

28 Hunter. I mainly used Ice Breaker too, plus I have a legendary void machine gun which helped on a few points. My void blue sniper actually did less damage than Ice Breaker.
 
Did the nightfall last night with zoomee and trickstar and at the end I was embarrassed to see I only had 30 kills. I had quite a lot of assists though.

I've only just realised reading this that I should've used void damage. I really need to level my specials up as I hardly ever use them.

Anyway I got 9 special coins for my troubles.

The only thing with staying in the room on the left is the captains that come up the stairs,
I was constantly paranoid they were gonna come up behind me, managed it in the end though but nearly didn't when there was only trickstar left against 2 captains.

Ice breaker is phenominal. I've used it to solo a devil walker public event, took seconds.

I've also used it to solo the "take out a target" public event where you have to kill the captain with the stupid shields. Use arc rocket launcher to strip the shield, then 6 headshots with ice breaker. Rinse and repeat and he's dead in couple of minutes.

All of them I think.

yup last week had all the damage burns active at once which is pretty unusual, first time it's happened.

Nothing came up the stairs for me in the room on the left, although I did take the boss down pretty quickly.

Ah this exaplains why I was unable to take him down solo when I was around level 14/15. I got his shields down but was doing bugger all damage to him with the guns I had at the time.

Reminds me of the daily on Mars with the yellow bar Flayer. Luckily the Flayer is a lot less dangerous than the Captain so you can all take turns playing a game of wack a mole with it.

Want to try Level 28 on Heroic as nightfall shouldn't be an issue (solo) with Void Burn.

The 28 Heroic is ok to solo as well. Just use the same safespots as the Nightfall ones that someone posted here. I did both before the raid last night, Heroic took me a bit longer and some extra bullets due to the lack of Void Burn but still fine. The room in the Sepiks fight can get a bit hairy if they start throwing a few grenades through the window while Sepiks is firing at you, but as long as you keep an eye out for the grenade marker you can dodge them safely.

If you need a hand with it I'd be happy to jump in when I get home tonight :)

the rank implies you should be able to solo this at level 20, you really can't. The rank is misleading and its designed to be a team public event where a team of guardians group together to take him down as the shield regenerates almost instantly once you stop applying damage to him.

The only way I've found to solo him is with ice breaker its the only thing (I've tried so far) capable of dealing enough damage to him single handedly
