Soloing One of The Hardest Destiny 1 Nightfalls (3x)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 сен 2024
- Destiny 1 and Destiny 2 Nightfalls are very different beasts. And this Nightfall from D1 is pretty tough compared to a lot of D2 Nightfalls. The Wretched Eye Nightfall from Rise of Iron in Destiny 1, one of the Strikes not in Destiny 2. I recorded this before Destiny 2 Lightfall came out, but enjoy some Destiny 1 in 2023 regardless.

Destiny 1 Destiny 2 Nightfall
Remember the ogre is blind, as his eye has been ripped out to make Kovik's weapon, which is why hunter going invisible does nothing to stop the ogre pursuit as he relies on sounds/ movement to check your position.
So, does that mean crouching/not moving stops it from finding you?
Funnily, I've never actually tried this as you can just run around the arena in circles.
@@wesleyward5901yea, we used to walk and crouch to keep it from noticing us.
imagine being able to shout or scream to distract the ogre from one of your teammates while that teammate stops shooting and talking, that wouldve been so cool
@@Jreaddy there used to be a cheese spot in the corner I remember ahhhh the good ol times
Wow, a way to put lore in a boss fight and actually have it work! Wish they still did this
I think I know now why Destiny 1 strikes were so replayable. It's the enemy diversity. While The Wretched Eye and Sepiks Redux may not be the most diverse with enemy encounters, they are outliers compared to the rest of the strikes. Think about Valus Ta'aurc. For the first three encounters in his strike, did you get either Taken or Cabal? Who knows. It's random every time instead of remaining the same and that's what I wanna see in strikes these days. A degree of randomness in encounters and even boss fights can fix replayability in strikes on top of strike loot.
D2 did have multiple enemies for the strikes early on, but bungie removed them and made them all fixed enemy encounters for whatever reason
Josh Strife Hayes put it very well (when talking about enemy encounters in video games): multiple problems!
If a game presents you with multiple problems at the same time, it forces you out of a singular comfort zone to try and deal with all the problems presented. Take the Kovik, Splicer Priest boss fight in this video; the boss shoots a deadly barrage from afar, but there is an Ogre charging at you at the same time - forcing you to move out of cover and engage the fight on the move. You can't just pop Bubble or play cover/reload and chip away at the boss without taking any risks whatsoever. Now imagine that fight without the Ogre. Boring, right?
The best solution to keeping gameplay challenging and refreshing is to always present the player with multiple problems at the same time, thereby requiring multiple strategies (solutions) to overcome it. Letting players play through your game exactly the same every time they attempt it is boring - and does not engage the player. A player that is not engaged does not feel invested, and therefore doesn't feel rewarded for completing objectives.
This. I hop on D1 every so often just to enjoy the game and the guns, but I recently replayed the Sepiks perfected Nightfall. I saw that one of the modifiers was arc burn and thought to myself, "The Siva Fallen just use solar weapons, I should be fine." Only to find out and remember that all of the encounters save for Sepiks become battles with the Hive lmao.
It's wild because some of the decision makers now like James Tsai were the ones who designed those great strikes.
It's not really that deep, it's the same shit 😂
I know we have risk runner but man I would not be upset if they brought back Zhalo. Something about that old school AK model just feels so good to shoot.
ON GOD
It was legit my most used exotic
Same here I talk about this to this day I hate riskrunner because to me it’s like they tried to replace Zhalo but it just doesn’t work imo
@@austinhumphries967 it’s literally better than zhalo 😂
@@iiozzyii yes but think, what if you dont need to take arc damage?
it amazes me how bungie was able to make difficult content for solo players without giving even the most basic enemy a billion health points. seeing how fast everything dies here is like a fever dream
Dude Omnigul, Will of Crota solo with arc burn was a nightmare. That small room at the end was absolute chaos and so hard to beat
*shudders* Oh man with Omnigul on arc burn, if it wasn't her firing at you, it was the arc boomer knights, or a cursed thrall wandering up to you and explode, plus the regular thralls melee attack was classified as an arc attack, so yes, the PTSD of soloing this is real...
SIVA, the Plaguelands, Shiro-4... Rise of Iron era D1 was unlike anything in D2.
Wish they didn’t wall it off in D2, loved the snowy look of the area with SIVA everywhere
D1 deserved another year. Y4 and then to D2.
Not f'n lying. Rise of Iron mops d2...sad to say.
@@kano4282 i think the current state of d2 blows d1 out of the water this is coming from sombody who played d1 beta. Yes d1 gave you an irreplaceable feeling. But it definitely had its issues too d1 on release was arguably worse than d2 on release. Only thing you had to do after you beat the black heart in d1 was get to level 20 (which was aids) and do vog. It took them 3 years to come up with the amount of content they did for roi WITH the help of activision. And now they have like 5 campaigns 6 raids 4 dungeons like wtf are you smoking
@@kano4282 plus the last update to d1 was legit just reskinning the armour, and weapons for adept versions and made old raids relevant.
D1 just had a completely different vibe! The builds and weapons felt more powerful somehow than the crazy min/max 20-hour grind builds we have today. Also the strikes of D1 had way more personality and replay value. Strike specific loot helped out too!
*wow didn’t expect all these replies! I should have probably clarified that I felt this way after Lightfall dropped and bungled up the difficulty of casual activities and made legendary weapons very weak*
I agree about the strikes, but there is no way that D1 builds are stronger than D2 builds. We have way more in our arsenal right now
Current day void Titan would absolutely trivialize that nightfall ngl
a random legendary with voltshot outclasses any exotic from d1
@@boochieboofer stop lying to yourself
More D1 Nightfalls, you love to see it
The most significant difference between D1 and D2 nightfalls is that on D1 you receive a lot of damage but YOUR damage output is also higher due to the burns and that makes a lot of difference.
Currently, using an elemental primary on D2 nightfalls (specially at higher difficulties) is a nightmare to kill even a red bar.
Well now we have weapon surges so it’s 25% buff to any weapons that match the surge. This weeks nightfall is 25 to solor and 25 to rocket so g horn is crazy. Also strand is alway the surge for this season.
@@Jreaddy yeah I know, but burns gave you almost double of elemental damage if I’m not mistaken. 25% is better than nothing, but not even close the old D1 burn modifier
@@GuilhermeGades true true. D1 burns where crazy.
@@GuilhermeGades the difference is that you can add mods that combined with surges will give you more than 50%, the game is balanced around all the build crafting that didn't exist in d1. There is also overcharged weapons but idk if that stacks with the surge
@@andruuu4649 it does not
When it comes to difficult nightfalls in d1, Fallen S.A.B.E.R was one that I found to be near impossible to solo and still incredible hard as 3 players due to the amount of enemy fire from all directions without protection in the different areas.
Recently ran this exact nightfall with a friend of mine, purely for nostalgia reasons, and damn it was hard. I was a Titan and my friend a Hunter. Took us a long time and eventually we ended up cheesing it. Probably the hardest nightfall I’ve ever done, honestly. Huge respect to you for soloing it. Three times!! 😅
And yes, stuff like this does make D2 look easy in comparison.
What happened to shiro 4 in the lore I wonder
I remember doing this nightfall solo back during D1. Decided not to cheese it and do it the legit way. Man was it frustrating as hell, but man was it a lot of fun.
Agreed! This strike is fun as hell!
The thing i like about old d1 difficult was they didn't need champions to make it more tough. The strike and burns and enemies made it hard. The strike had randomness to it too with taken invading so often. It was actually fun to do over and over again and didn't feel like a chore like how most strike in d2 are. Especially because of the champions and when they don't stun or glitch out and come back to life.
look how fast the ultimate recharges tho it's way easier to d2
@@lestat305 That's from the Daybreak modifier.
@@lestat305 supers are way weaker in D1. I’d argue some abilities rival supers
Also even if it was hard. Enemies weren't bullet sponge. You could kill them with primaries without the need of your entire mag for one single cabal...
Probably one of the most infuriating thing in D1 was the constant problem in regard to their error codes. You’d think after years of D1 they would have fixed those types of issues.
i remember in destiny 1 how we coward from any nightfall boss, camping with icebreakers waiting for our heavy synthesis to come off cooldown.
nowadays in destiny 2 even under light by 20 levels in the hardest content in game, nothing will compare to the fear we faced during these nightfall's
Actually I liked to stay in the corner of the map shooting the boss, I know a lot of people complained but I liked it, currently in D2 most maps are an arena, the problem is that Destiny is not an arena shooter, so even if the Bungie make the game harder fans will complain about the increased difficulty, and they will be rightly complaining.
In D1 the game was more difficult but you had places on the map where you could hide, take a breath, reload your weapons, wait for a super or a grenade, crouch and become invisible and kill the boss with "ease", every strike had a place where you could stay. One of the things I hated about D2 strikes was precisely the removal of these hiding places on the map, everything is an arena, the game expects you to run and shoot at the same time, the design of D2 Strikes are horrible in most cases.
Some strikes in D2 not even a damn pillar in the boss arena even exists for you to protect yourself from the shots. Lake Of Shadows is the perfect example of everything that is wrong with strikes in D2, the game literally expects you to be the Doomslayer and run around the arena, shooting, throwing grenades, using abilities and restoring your health all at the same time.
void burn with ogre boss...
you fucking getting rekt if you even think about looking at the boss
Thank you for making cool vids like this. It really does feel like I'm playin D1 again for a few minutes
Part of me hopes that D1 comes to PC and is rereleased on all platforms with updates frame rate and other shenanigans, but part of me also doesn’t.
It’s not that I don’t think it wouldn’t work, but it terrifies me as to what Bungie would do with it if they did.
Bro you make me wanna play D1 again. This feels like there was more effort put into d1 then d2. Idk but I remember not even being able to do those due to lacking weapons and light level. It was just not an option and that left me with a goal and a reason to grind
That boss fight music is neat. Definitely adds to the intensity of the Nightfall - at least for me. Also, nice work my guy! 👏🏻 I wouldn’t be able to run around alone in that tiny arena and stay alive by myself with all that chaos.
Thank you! glad you enjoyed! 🤙🏼
The undying mind was the hardest for me. I have so many memories in it. Great strike
that one is pretty tough too. So many yellow bar enemies lol
"Whether we wanted it or not, we've stepped into a war with the Cabal on Mars. So let's get to taking out their command, one by one. Valus Ta'aurc. From what I can gather he commands the Siege Dancers from an Imperial Land Tank outside of Rubicon. He's well protected, but with the right team, we can punch through those defenses, take this beast out, and break their grip on Freehold.
So excited for this video. Remember the cheese spot right side of the spawn area at the back
i remember back in 2016 summer the modifiers for the weekly strikes was arc burn small arms and everyone was using supercell just melting bosses. it was so much fun. everyone was farming grasp of malok and shit.
Omg this brought back fresh feelings of long lost panic attacks!! Fantastic content! And holy shit that music ❤
Glad you enjoyed!
Oh jesus. I consider myself a fairly OK D1 player but when I see this in rotation, I don't even attempt it. A super easy strike all the way through until you get to that final room, that's just pure pain :) You have my utmost respect brother.
🤙🏼 was a lot of fun running through this one. D1 nightfalls are just always fun!
See, I thought this was the worst nf when I was doing it. And then this week had undying mind and all it's yellow bar precursor vex made me rethink my life choices.
I feel like some aspects of this were harder, but also the primary ammo weapons do sooooo much more damage, especially with the weekly modifiers. Going into a GM on D2 even red bars just eat primary ammo, but you have a load more heavy/special to play with
I never knew how bad 30fps was until being away from my console for the last 2 years. It's like watching a fucking slideshow presentation
talk about having flashbacks. i love it. bringing back countless nights with the boys
Forgot the name of this but omg THIS IS THE ONE! That boss room still scares me
Great to watch these runs again
Watching this it became clear to me that I’ve been seeing „Contacting Destiny Servers“ on a near daily basis for the last 9 yrs 😂😂
The only thing hard to deal with in d1 is the frame rate
It's the FOV for me, I can handle 30fps but I can't handle that crazy low FOV.
Wow, enemies actually die. This looks like so much fun, especially not taking more than an entire mag to kill a red bar.
D1 for life ❤
👍
It's hard to do some strikes in D1 nowadays not because they might be hard on their own if you did them solo, but there are so little players in the game these days that you're practically forced to play them solo because the game just throws you in when there are no other players in matchmaking for them. It was a complete nightmare for me when I had to go through Omnigul, Alak-hul, and the shield brothers strikes on my own. Although it wasn't a nightfall, so it wasn't entirely impossible during the time, it was as difficult as one since I made a new character to do them
Man I'm happy D1 content videos are still going strong. Just hard to find people to play with since almost everyone moved to D2. I play D2 but I still need to get a bunch of stuff In D1
I did this strike solo on a new account with garbage gear a day or two ago and had a blast. I was caught off guard by how fast the boss can shred you, had to use my self res 😅
watching you use the og fatebringer makes me miss the old days
Hey man, I wanted to let you know that I enjoy your content to no ends, you got me back into playing destiny 1 by the way. Secondly I wanted to ask you if you knew where I could get people to play with in destiny 1 because I’m currently alone and playing with the occasional rando 😂
Glad you enjoy the content! I know that on Xbox one there’s people who use the community tab lfg a fair bit. I think there’s a few discord servers out there for d1 stuff. And of course, inviting or messaging people in the tower is one way to do it. Recently done that myself for a some content
Not gonna lie, if you know the skips and cheeses… all d1 nightfalls are easy, u can completely skip the bridge at the start, u can go oob and destroy all the siva clusters, boss room has the a god spot and you will always get gold nightfall because of the time bonus you get for completing it quick (not like gold matters anyway) and for this nightfall in particular using chaos dogma adept is better due to it having increased damage to fallen and being arc burn
You also mentioned lightswitch nightfall which I’m fairly certain is a modifier that get removed from the nightfalls in roi, you can only get it in story playlist and PoE round modifiers
It's actually insane how much better looking Destiny 2 is than Destiny 1, not to mention the smoothness of the animations and the smoothness in general. It's such a huge step up.
i personally always found this strike way harder with void burn. the satan's asshole trinity of strikes was omnigul arc burn, shield brothers solar burn, and wretched eye void burn
One of the best moments for me in this game was finally getting the ice breaker…love that exotic
This strike was sooo Nostalgic. I love that the splicers took out the ogre eye and put it into a gun. 😅 I love ig
Bro how fast do you get your abilities back, I forgot how nice d1 looked tho.
Daybreak modifier
I remember when primaries did damage feels so long ago 😢
even when this was just a regular strike with those modifiers this strike was punishing as all hell. specially since nowadays we have infinite ammo for primary weapons. with d1 you dont have that luxury anymore. destiny 1 was the most punishing then modifiers were in your opponent's favor.
Seen only from youtube D2 and it almoust looks that nobody does not use hand cannons like in D1, just swinging around with autorifles . Anyway, just watching these D1 clips are satisfying. This strike withouth elemental damage, pain in the ass.
D1>D2
i respect it but no
D2 is a way better game but d1 will always be better
The sound effects and the enemies Roaring is z much better in D1…I miss these days🙏
I didn't get much good gear in D1 but even just soloing regular strikes these days is hard for me in D1.
The supercell was my favourite exotic auto rifle in D1. Loved using it in trials 🤟
No joke I WANR THIS BACK THIS IS THE DIFFICULTY I CRAVE FOR!! I know not everyone likes this but god damn this was enjoyable
Nothing is 1 shotting him and the enemies aren’t sponges and they have the aim of storm troopers 😂
My favourite weapons from D1, the zhalo. Man wish they bring it back
Love the series keep it up
Did this exact nightfall when it was out a few weeks ago and could only manage to solo it on hunter. Ended up spamming smoke/invis bombs so the shanks wouldn’t destroy me.
Love destiny 1. I wish you’d bring back the “new character in 2020” series.
I'm not gonna lie, I use the cheese spot during the final boss fight on this strike. If it weren't for Big Boy, I'd stay on the ground. But combine Omar the Ogre with the death-machine Shanks on Arc burn, and I'm not afraid to hide. It's not chickening out. It's ensuring my survival.
The shield brothers!!!! I miss the strikes in D1😢
I literally went and played D1 yesterday and struggled so damn much... I cannot remember it being so hard
I remember people bailing on me on regular strike when it came up in the Vanguard list. I can only imagine on Nightfall. Zhalo was my first exotic. I was so happy to get it. I don't get that enjoyment in D2. I don't care about half of the exotics at this point. That weapon was awesome.
i really want to experience this again
Did this one once and then never again, it was brutal. The strike is also just really good.
man this shit was cancer back in the day lmao, so hard. as a titan, i approve of your titan and hebridean thoughtcrime, goated ship. i miss D1 but i cant play it anymore cuz i have digital PS5 so whenever they announce a time servers are going ill buy it. i do miss this game tho as i said, so much
i fucking love d1 content please dont stop
Man I remember The Summoning Pits and sitting in that room with ice breaker lmao.
They really need to bring back zhalo supercell into destiny 2. Also great video bro.
the ogre running at you is lowkey terrifying
Destiny 1 will always have that magic!!
Big difference is that higher tier content in D2 is just such a slog, every thing one shots you. Watching this made me remember how every death in D1 felt like it was deserved versus getting one shot by a sniper in a grandmaster. I feel like bungie could have gone a lot of different ways to counter healing than just having everything one shot you.
The difference is that in D1 we were much more weak. The reason enemies do so much damage is because spamming restoration, cure, healing on top of 100000 build videos. Enemies are scaled fine.
2:42 The poor vandel doing cartwheel flips in mid air having no idea what hit him lols.
Fk this nightfall in particular. I did bond brothers for fun, but this ones 3rd phase was sum BUUUULLLLL!
The real challenge of playing Destiny is when you get hit with that "Contacting Destiny Servers".
Great strike and the supercel a great gun. It's still in my top 5. Wish it would come back. Riskrunner and ghoul don't count 😅
Seeing how you can easily kill enemies with the primaries makes me wish it was the same for Destiny 2 cause it sucks so much using a pulse rifle or scout or hand cannon, the only good feeling weapon is SMGs
Man i miss destiny 1 i really d2 stuck with this artstyle
Idk what it is about d1 strikes but damn I completely forgot about this one. So many classics
Nothing like D1 not even D2 can capture that perfect feel of seeing those engrams pop
i used to do this with another friend and one of us just hides in a spot on the rocks where they cant hit you it was soo easy
On master difficulty duality dungeon i died so many times when i thought invisible ment they can't see you ,i was wrong
I wouldn't say D1 pve was harder but I would say it's better, if only because it's not so reliant on spamming bullet sponges. Also the positive modifiers were super fun.
Was ability and super regen really this fast in D1. Man I miss these days
Daybreak modifier increases ability recharge for this nightfall
5:47 I think this is a glitch that happened to me before the same thing happened me I got that baboon thing in the middle of a shield brothers strike once and once I was alive again i couldn’t see but I was able to move my character and shoot whatever so I was basically blind for the rest of the strike
Ogars are blind so they only sence or hear you when you are nearby. Thats why they dont care for your invis(at least lore wise)
i still run the D1 nightfalls when the modifiers are easy. Wretched Eye is one that i always skip, regardless of the modifiers.
Everything about D1 is lovely and great.story gameplay clothes weapons
Look at that super recharge, it’s like 4 every 10 mins! How many bubbles did you make in the boss fight alone? I’m lucky get a second super in a Destiny 2 boss fight only if pop it at the very beginning
It’s the daybreak modifier. These are not normal recharge rates.
Warlocks used to come back to life !!?!???
How come it looks so smooth. I tried playing the other day and only got like 30 frames per second.
crazy how much better this game looks when you have a creative team that actually gave a shit. also forgot how cool that IB Titan armor was. all these rehashes and they can't even bring back the best D1 sets.
This game is still relevant god damn it
This is beautiful
Zelo was such a good weapon. Wish they brought that one back !
Anytime that strike has void burn it’s a pain in the ass
never played d1 before but goddamn does this look so much more fun compare to the seasonal boring grounds
theres actually a spot where the ogre cant get you and also you can hide from damage from the boss and the enemys
The shanks are the real bosses in this strike, never really had a problem with the beam from the boss or the ogre or the vandals and dregs, just the goddamn shanks.
The nearest thing we have on D2 is the corrupted and training grounds those are a pain for me
Warlock self-rez has to come back fr, at least imo, I know speed runners and tryhards will find ways to break every single activity with it but for the solo player, self-rez would be a great addition
