In their current iteration, ''Destiny 2'' Nightfalls are chosen between 6 strikes every season. Completing enough Nightfalls, with more progression depending on difficulty, awards the player Powerful Gear. Obtaining 100,000 points in a single strike awards Pinnacle Gear. Nightfalls always have an Acute Burn [[Modifier]]. Nightfalls are the only way to obtain Nightfall weapons, with one weapon being awarded by each different Nightfall for the season. The Nightfall node has 4 difficulty levels available, Adept, Hero, Legend and Master, with increasing difficulty and rewards. | In their current iteration, ''Destiny 2'' Nightfalls are chosen between 6 strikes every season.

====Scoring==== | |||
The scoring system of Nightfalls has two aspects. The direct numerical score counts enemy kills, with an increasing amount of points awarded for [[Elite]], [[Major]] and [[Ultra]] combatants, as well as the way they are killed, such as multikills or precision damage. Collecting [[Orb of Light|Orbs of Power]] also increases your score. The second metric, present in Hero or higher difficulty, is Champion scoring. Defeating all Champions in the strike grants Platinum rewards, and access to the prizes mentioned above. Missing Champions gives a lower score, going to Gold, Silver and Bronze, with decreasing rewards. | |||
