Today we’re looking at the Strikes playlist, including the Nightfall: The Ordeal for this week (The Devils’ Lair)
With the Weekly reset we now have seven Seasonal challenges dealing specifically with strikes:
- Week 1: Dominance Operandi - Fallen - Defeat Fallen, especially tougher foes
- Week 2: Dominance Operandi - Cabal - Defeat Cabal bosses
- Week 3: Challenge Our Foes - Complete playlist strikes
- Week 4: Vanguard Chosen - Complete Nightfall: The Ordeal on Hero difficulty or higher
- Week 5: Ultimate Champion - Defeat Champions in any Nightfall: The Ordeal strikes. Earn bonus progress at higher difficulty tiers.
- Week 6: Nightfall Variety Attack - Defeat combatants using Sniper Rifles, Submachine Guns, Rocket Launchers, or Bows in Nightfall: The Ordeal
- Week 6: Conquest of the Mighty - Complete any Nightfall: The Ordeal strike on Grandmaster.
Some other Seasonal Challenges to keep in mind are:
Golden Reaper (Retroactive Challenge) - Acquire Cabal gold
- Week 1: Challenger’s Aspirations - Complete weekly playlist challenges
- Week 2: The Bigger They Are - Defeat Elite or Boss Cabal anywhere in the system
- Week 4: Sling the Stone - Stagger, pierce, or disrupt Champions
Completing three strikes from the playlist using a subclass that matches the weekly burn (Solar this week) will take care of the Strike Playlist weekly challenge
Completing Nightfall: The Ordeal strikes will progress its Weekly challenge. Higher difficulties grant the most efficient progress.
Completing a Nightfall with a score above 100,000 completes that Weekly challenge
Completing 8 Vanguard Daily and Repeatable bounties completes the Vanguard Service challenge
With all that said, let’s dig in:
Today’s modifiers are Solar Singe, Stasis Singe, and Iron.
Check the Nightfall strike for the different modifiers that are available this week for it.

If you’re heading into the Nightfall or any other Cosmodrome Strike today (3/18/21) be sure to pick up Shaw’s Full Spectrum weekly (kills with all three original energies) and all four of his dailies. Defeat combatants, especially Hive, with your abilities and kinetic weapons. Full Spectrum lines up nicely with a good number of the bounties from the Suggested Loadout Section.

Petra’s bounties aren’t on the API so you’ll have to check with her in-game for what you can do in the Corrupted strike.
Each planetary daily bounty should reward 6,000 XP and planetary materials. Spider’s and Petra’s bounties might still be weird.
