NOTE: this trophy was originally unlocked for completing either the raid or a nightfall on Prestige difficulty. However, after the release of Beyond Light, the trophy was modified to just completing a nightfall strike on Grandmaster difficulty, as the Leviathan Raid was removed.

Thanks to the Beyond Light update, this trophy has arguably become a lot more difficult. Raids, though time consuming and requiring six players, usually can be completed with lower level gear provided everyone knows the mechanics. While Grandmaster Nightfalls are shorter and only require 3 people, they come down almost entirely to having the best possible gear, high levels of skill, and definitely some luck.

First of all, Grandmaster Nightfalls are set to a higher power level than players are able to reach. For the current season, that level is 1300, while the max power level before equipping mods and pinnacle gear is 1260. This will automatically put everyone at a disadvantage. But what really ups the difficulty is the exhaustive list of modifiers. Modifiers include spawning more champions and difficult enemies, snipers that can 1 shot you, removing the radar, increase melee damage taken from enemies, enemies that can only be killed if you have specific gear mods, take damage while jumping, and limited revives.

It is usually best to take these missions slowly and cautiously. At least one player should have a sniper rifle to clear out some of the enemies from long range. The class setup is entirely dependent on what you and your teammates prefer, same with the weapons and mods.

Ultimately, there is no one perfect strategy for this trophy, especially since the strike changes each week. Below are some video guides of some of the nightfalls, as well as strategies and equipment loadouts to hopefully make this a bit easier.
