Grandmaster Nightfalls are high-difficulty versions of Vanguard Nightfalls inDestiny 2. These Grandmaster Nightfalls are meant for players who grind the game daily, but the rewards are worth it as they include Ascendant Shards, Exotic Gear, and above all a guaranteed Adept Nightfall weapon.

HyperNet Current is the first one in the Grandmaster Nightfall cycle for Episode Heresy and is one of the easiest ones among the others that will be available in the coming weeks. If you’re looking to farm HyperNet Current for the Adept weapon and the other rewards, this guide will help make your journey a lot easier.

You may be wondering what about the time when Bungie opens up all the Grandmaster Nightfall nodes. When the nodes open up, that is only for the sake of completing the Conquerer Seal. Once you complete a Grandmaster Nightfall in the node, they disappear. You can only farm the Nightfall that is available in the weekly rotation as the nodes are not farmable.

Since there are way too many Grandmaster Nightfalls as compared to how it used to be in previous years,there is no guarantee HyperNet Current will have anything worthwhilethe next time it comes back. As such, it’s highlyrecommended you farm it right now before it leaves, as not onlythe loot is good this time, but it’s also theeasiest Grandmaster Nightfallamong some of the others.

Corrective Measure

Hunters and Titans are better off running the Arc subclass with Gathering Storm Super or Thundercrash respectively. You can useRaiju’s Harnesson HuntersandCuirass of the Falling Staron Titans. For Titans, you should alsouse Knockout for the extra healingas that will keep you alive. Both Hunters and Titans canproc Bolt Charge very easily, which synergizes well with the seasonal mods.

If you are running a Fusion rifle, make sure you have Particle Reconstruction active. If not, make sure to use a void weapon and unlock Void Flux artifact mod for the Volatile buffs. Finally, make sure to unlock Defibrillating Blast since it heals you whenever your Bolt Charge is at maximum and makes survivability a lot easier.

Warlocks can run Arc, but it is better to use Well of Radiance withHealing Grenades,Speaker’s Sighthelmet, and Hellion Aspect,since it provides both survivability and damage for the team and yourself. There are several situations where you will get overwhelmed by ads and Well of Radiance will help you clear all of them with ease.

As for primary weapons,Le Monarque is the best choice since it helps trigger Bolt Chargequickly and deals a lot of damage. It even comes in handy against the final boss. In the heavy slot,Watchful eye with the Jolting Feedback or Rolling Storm perkis very good since it synergizes with the seasonal Arc artifact mods. Commemoration and Corrective Measure are Void Machine Guns that also benefit from the Volatile mods in the seasonal artifact.

Machine Guns not only help damage the boss, but they also help stun Overload champions due to the mod from the seasonal artifact.

Finally,Vex Mythoclast is best run with Warlockssince it synergizes with the Solar subclass. Additionally,Fusion Rifles have both the Unstoppable modand theParticle Reconstructiondamage mod from the seasonal artifact. Once combined with the firepower of Vex Mythoclast, you may shred through the Unstoppable Champions with ease.

HyperNet Current Grandmaster Nightfall Guide

Theopening section of HyperNet Current is quite easy. Initially, you will pass through a bridge where you will face some basic enemies that your team can take down very easily. Once you cross the bridge, you will step inside a rocky cavern, where you will find more basic enemies andtwo Unstoppable Champions. Make sure to defeat the Champions as a priority, though you have the option to skip the rest of the enemies.

After you cross the initial bridge section, you will end up in a massive open area with several enemies. Clear out the enemies as quickly as possible and make your way to the right side of the arena where there is an elevated platform. After a few minutes,a Tormentor will arrivewhich you will have to defeat. As long as youstay on the elevated platform, the Tormentor won’t jump at you, though its ranged attacks can hurt you. Two Unstoppable champions will spawn as well, which you need to get rid of.

The Tormentor in this Grandmaster Nightfall is considered as a boss, even though there’s no special mechanics to killing it than just shooting it until it dies. However, since it’s counted as a boss, you cannot land a finisher on it when its HP is low. So don’t try to jump in to finish it off, as you will end up dead.

After defeating the Tormentor, you will drop down from an opening, andits time for a really long platforming section. You will have to simply follow the path forward, though it will befilled with Unstoppable and Overload champions. Do not get too aggressive as being a Grandmaster Nightfall, the champions will hurt, and they can kill you very quickly. Take your time, stun them, kill one, and move to the next.

Once you complete the platforming section, you will eventually end up in the boss arena whereyou have to defeat Parthenios, Drifting Mind.

How To Defeat Parthenios, Drifting Mind

This is a fairly simple boss fight, though thechances of wiping are the highest in this sectionthan any other part of this Grandmaster Nightfall. Theboss’s HP is divided into three sectionsas you will have to take them down strategically. Once you enter the arena, you will get a few seconds before the boss spawns.

Use this time to hide behind one of the pillars at the back of the area. Once the boss spawns,use your Titan Barricade and Well of Radianceand start the damage phase. After the first HP bar is gone, Parthenios will have a shield.You will need to take down this shieldbefore damaging the boss again.

While the boss is fairly easy, it keeps shooting projectiles towards you. Do not try to tank the projectiles and hide behind cover when they arrive. If you get hit by two projectiles in quick succession, you will end up dead almost instantly. Your Well of Radiance and Titan Barricades cannot protect you.

Once theshield comes up, a bunch ofbasic enemies will spawn along with an Overload champion. Take down the champion and defeat the basic enemies. Additionally, a couple ofglowing Minotaurs will spawn which will drop a Cranium. Use the Cranium todestroy the Taken Blightsall across the room. Ideally, you need one person to do this, while the other two help clear ads and keep the boss’s gaze on themselves.

Destroying the Blight willremove the boss’s shield, and you can deal damageonce again. Take down the second HP bar and once again a shield will pop up along with a bunch of enemies,Taken blights, and an Unstoppable Champion. Repeat the same mechanics where you defeat the Minotaur to get the Cranium and use it to break the blights. Defeat the champion and finish off the boss.
