Help Wanted for some Grinding!

Hey folks, I'm trying to 'wrap up a few lingering boutnies/quests and it's not exactly the best of Destiny I need to grind at.  Anyone out there willing to help me tomorrow (4 Jan) night?  Here's what I need to get done:

 

1) About 80 fusion rife kils in nightfall.  That first room is a great opportunity, but its tough on my own with no respawns.  If I have someone to help me revive, it shouldn't take too many repeats there at just the first room.

2) The big Knight  guy in the Skywatch daily to finish the Urn quest.  Got him to spawn today, but I just coudn't put enough damage into him before the event ended and everyone ran away.  Big problem here is that it looks like this might be a once an hour opportunity.

 

I understand these aren't the funnest things to do, but I'd sure appreciate some help and I'd owe you!

 

Thanks!

You do know that all you have to do is start the night fall and then head to another part of the map where respawning isn't restricted find level 30 bad guys(or whatever level the night fall is) and kill them. They have to be what ever level the night fall raid is to count towards the 100.

Yeah, that first room has SO many enemies though!  Got some help last night from Duke and BLAM and knocked out the Pocket Infinity bounty - Thanks!

 

I'll be hunting Urzok tonight,

You're welcome! Enjoyed it! Hope the Urzok hunting was useful. Feel free (Darth, as well) to share additional tips. For one thing, how long do you have to hang around the area before Urzok shows up? (I assume other public events may show up at this location? I haven't researched this at DestinyPublicEvents as yet)

Urzok is a tough SOB. When hunting for him, bring your best Arc damage weapons to take out his shield. I would be happy to help you with this when I'm around so just let me know.

Urzok can show up during the public event or during the Hive vs. Fallen war that happens from time-to-time. He'll drop after about half the event is done from one of those tombships.

Took out Urzok last night, a pretty frustrating task!

Skywatch has a potential public event about every 30min, either Defend the Warsat or the Hive vs. Fallen. Seems like the events fire maybe half or 2/3rds of the time? My first time the Hive vs. Fallen event spawned (2nd or 3rd event slot I went to) I was on my own and went after Urzok, barely took out his shields and was too busy dodging all the incoming fire, that's when I posted here for help. No events again for another slot or two. Once there was a cluster of 5 or 6 lvl 30/31s and I was SOOO hopeful, but no event.

Last night I jumped on and went straight to skywatch, first slot was HvF, I spammed my FL, but noone could make it in in time, so I failed to kill him. Next slot was Defend the warsat and he appeared. Had a lvl 20 and 25 around. Somehow we managed to drop his shields (Yeah fully upgraded murmur!) And it I was down to my last sliver of health (after 1 radiance) and one my last AR rounds took him out. I don't know, but it may have been easier with the Warsat event?

Anyway, he pops up about halfway through and only stays for about 5 minutes. But, when I finally killed him, the Warsat event had actually ended and I received my Gold score and rewards. I was so worried he was going to phase out before we killed him. Its just super frustrating, I know folks are willing to help, but no one wants to sit around waiting for 50% chance and it's not feasible to drop whatever mission to jump out and help someone. You kind of have to hope there are randoms around to pitch in.

You might try messaging random players in the area asking for help with the big guy. I've helped a couple others while there. Seems everyone who puts fire on him near the end gets credit.

Seems like a real short window to message friends in other parts of Destiny in hopes they get there in time. I'd hope Randoms in the area would have enough gumption to go after Urzok if they saw others around doing the same. I presume we only have access to the local randoms? Not the ones on other parts of Earth?

I think I'll pack a lunch and some other Eris bounties and hang around Skywatch tonight at 11pm ET.

You're best best is to wait for the sword carrier to drop, kill him when urzok is out then use the sword to take him out... that's how I did it anyway.  I tried a couple times with a bunch of randoms & couldn't drop him with anything but the sword.

Thanks! Kill sword knight. Grab sword. Kill Urzok with sword. I'll try that next time. Attempted Urzok twice last night during Defend the Warsat and failed both times. Arc heavy weapons just not strong enough yet, plus the Defend the Warsat enemies were relentless! Although the bounty states this clearly, I did confirm that Urzok has to be killed during the public event. Any other time does not count.

I wonder about the arc HMG "Song of Ir Yut" picked up during the Crota raid? It has extra damage for Knights and it'll shoot through a Knight's shield wall. Just 2 bubbles to complete the build.... Let's try it!

I was using that (half upgraded) and murmur (fully upgraded). Wish I knew you two were writhing on it too, but I'm usually logging of about the time Duke shows up. Sorry.
