Hello fellow destiny gamers.
I like you to share you my secret by getting the best rewards doing nightfall or weekly heroic strikes.
When the final boss is 1 shot, you have to go back to the orbit.
Not all players because if you do then you have to redo everthing again.
One player go to orbit then rejoin.
Then the other player goes to the orbit then rejoin.
Doing this, will reset your kills, deaths, and play time... well actually everything.
Here is the trick. You get the best reward by completing the nightfall or weekly heroic strikes as fast as possible.
I've tested this several times with my friends.
Last week, i did nightfall solo. When the boss was one shot, i asked 2 friends to join me.
When they joined, i killed the boss and the game ended.
I got 6 strange coins.
My friend got 6 ascendant shards and 6 ascendant energy.
My other friend got a legendary engram or exotic. i don't remember anymore.
This week tried doing it again but this time i went back to orbit too and rejoined the team.
I really don't remember what my friends got but i do remember getting the Exotic Hard Light weapon.
--Edit--
This is not a troll thread/post. I am not joking about the fact that you can actually get better stuff by having your progress reset.
Most of you say it's all random or same RNG, but no.. it's not in Nightfall.
If it doesn't work the first time getting an exotic weapon by going to the orbit and rejoining back doesn't mean it doesn't work.

Apparently - I obviously have no proof but this is what people have told me - if you finish it without dying, you get a higher chance at an exotic drop. Again, I don't know if it's true, but this would explain why the guy below who said he solo'd it over the course of 30 minutes got an exotic; because he obviously could not have died. This would explain why leaving and rejoining is yielding more exotic drops; because those leaving and rejoining are finishing the strike without dying.
