Tips for Completion

There’s no secret to completing Grand Master Nightfalls efficiently. You need the right builds, synergy, and teammates. You have to carry the right weapons to take down overlords and champions. There’s a match game modifier, so you also need void, solar, and Arc weapons to break enemy shields.

Taking cover from enemies is another essential thing because you will get one shot by many enemies in GM Nightfalls.

Destiny 2 Grandmaster Nightfalls: Loadout Recommendations

We are working on a build guide for the GM Nightfalls. However, here are the best weapons that you can use.

Champion Options for S20

• Barrier: Any Sniper, Scout, or Auto Rifle. Arbalest is a must in most cases.
• Overload: Machine Gun, Bow, Arc Grenades.
• Unstoppable: Shotgun, Pulse Rifle.

Primary Weapons

• Long Range weapons that can take down enemies from range. It would be best if someone from your team takes an Auto/Scout to take care of the barrier champions.
• There are a lot of great bows to choose from; my favorite is Ticu’s Divination. You can take Trinity Ghoul or the new bow this Season.
• Someone from your team should also take a Pulse Rifle to Stun Unstoppable Champions. There are a lot of great weapons to choose from; Piece of Mind, Syncopation-53, or Cold Denial.

Special Weapons

• Damage Dealing weapons like Fusion Rifles or Grenade Launchers is something we recommend. You can use a grenade launcher that rolls with the Blinding Grenades perk; this can come in clutch during fights. The blinding effect blinds the enemies for a few seconds.
• Eriana’s Vow is another excellent option, the intrinsic perk Barrier Champions.
• Any Sniper or Linear Fusion with Firing-Line can be a good option, but you risk getting wiped out if all of you stick together.

Heavy Weapons

• One Thousand Voices
• Thunderlord is another excellent option that can take care of Overload champions.
• Gjallarhorn Rocket Launcher
• Linear Fusion Rifles like Reed’s Regret.
• Swords can also be used, but that should be your last option. You risk getting one shot by enemies. But a guardian has their choices.

That’s all for the Grandmaster Nightfall this week. I am excited to get my hands on the New Bow. Are you excited?
