Best weapons for Fallen S.A.B.E.R. Grandmaster
As always in our guides, you need to know the best loadouts for Fallen S.A.B.E.R. GM Nightfall. With the release of the Anti-Barrier Sniper Rifle, assembling weapons for GMs has become significantly more manageable, as you can now use Overload primary weapons. In Episode Echoes, these include Hand Cannon (Sunshot, Thorn, Midnight Coup, Zaouli’s Bane), but don’t forget about Le Monarque. Outbreak Perfected is still one of the best weapons for GM, particularly due to Artifact Mods, so take advantage of the chance to include it in your loadout, especially in combination with Indebted Kindness. If you’re having survival issues, you can try Riskrunner, as there is a lot of Arc damage in Fallen S.A.B.E.R.
Best builds for Fallen S.A.B.E.R. GM Nightfall
Another important aspect of how to prepare for Fallen S.A.B.E.R. GM Nightfall is to get the perfect build for your class. That’s why we have this segment for each class.
Warlock
Due to the presence of many Overload Champs, a Prismatic Turret Warlock can be very useful, as Bleak Watcher can stun them. If you have enough means to counter them, you can use Solar Warlock with Speaker’s Sights, ensuring excellent survivability for your Fireteam.
Titan
If you’re not having issues with survivability, try Consecration Prismatic Titan, one of the strongest, if not the strongest, build for GMs. The familiar HOIL Arc or Abeyant Leap builds are suitable for those who prefer safer gameplay.
Hunter
For those who enjoy Ability Spam in Fallen S.A.B.E.R. Nightfall in Destiny 2, a Hunter with Spirit of Inmost Light and Cyrtarachne is excellent, providing great survivability. If this playstyle isn’t for you, a Prismatic/Void Hunter with Spirit of Galanor/Orpheus Rig will offer a low Tether Cooldown, which also stuns Overload Champs.
How to complete Fallen S.A.B.E.R. nightfall in Destiny 2: encounters guide
The nightfall starts with you needing to reach the falling satellite, which you’ll have to defend against waves of enemies. Surviving in the open area while fending off Fallen and Champs can be quite challenging in Fallen S.A.B.E.R. on Grandmaster difficulty, so we advise you to eliminate enemies as quickly as they spawn. Fallen Ships can also pose a significant threat, so start shooting the guns as soon as they appear.
After the first encounter, a passage to the bunker will open, where you will face Fallen and numerous Exploder Shanks that need to be dealt with first. Barrier and Overload Champions will appear along with them, which can be safely dealt with in the room to the left. Despite its reliability, we advise you to stay alert, as new enemies can spawn in it. Remember to destroy Champions to finish Fallen S.A.B.E.R. on Platinum rewards!
Break the Battery after killing all the enemies in the room, which will cause even more Fallen to appear with two Overload Champs. We still advise you to stick to the room described earlier, from where you can safely deal with all enemies.
The encounter with the Arc Charge is quite tricky if you don’t know how to handle it properly. In this cramped room, you will constantly face dangerous Arc Waves capable of one-shotting Guardians, as well as spawning Sniper and Exploder Shanks. The best strategy is to allow a person with the Amplified Buff (Turret Warlock or Consecration Titan) to carry the Arc Charge, enabling them to quickly insert it before most Shanks spawn.
Now, you need to reach the Fallen S.A.B.E.R. boss encounter through two rooms with Barrier and Overload Champs. It’s hard to provide specific tactics for these rooms other than sticking with your team and focusing on the most dangerous enemies first. Due to the close proximity of enemies, Hunter’s Tether will be extremely effective, easing the progress for your Fireteam.
Finally, let’s move on to the Fallen S.A.B.E.R. boss fight with S.A.B.E.R-2. Although the room is quite large, it has very few covers, making survivability crucial. To summon the boss, you first need to kill a few Servitors and Shanks appearing on the right and left sides of the arena. Be careful in the arena during the boss fight, as there is electricity all around that can easily take you down.
The boss has only three damage phases, and the first one begins immediately after its appearance. As soon as you deal 25% damage, S.A.B.E.R-2 will gain an Immune Shield, and numerous Shanks, Servitors, and Barrier Champions will rush onto the arena. After successfully eliminating all enemies, you need to bring the boss health down to half, after which the same enemies will appear on the arena again, but this time with Sniper Shanks on top. Finally, after killing them, the last damage phase will begin, during which we advise you to kill the boss as quickly as possible before it causes any problems.
