It's a shame no-one else knows to do this and doesn't get 100k. [links]
See full version: You can get 100k on Hero Difficulty in this week; s Nightfall: The Ordeal

In the final boss room, don't start the DPS phase right away and allow the ball knights to spawn over and over until you hit 100k, it makes getting this week pinnacle easy considering the number of champs in the legend and master difficulty. I uploaded the run end to Imgur. Good Luck Guardians!

you can do this at the first crystals too in the chasm room of the nightfall. I normally do it there cause you can insta kill the knights when they spawn in. [links]
My friends and I tried this a long time ago, and it seemed like we couldn't get enough points from the knights quick enough. Take too long and you're losing points fast by the time you get to the boss. Perhaps we didn't have the right weapons or enough ammo or something so the knight kills were just taking too long. here
you can also toss the balls from the two knights off the ledge and farm them
Those were last two things I needed when I picked up Wayfarer the other week. I ended up doing a shit-ton of Blind Well to get the emblem.
I got the emblem after completing all 6 ascendant challenges (not time trial) may have been a coincidence
Next, during the drill section, kill adds as fast as you can during the "timer" of the drill going up. If you do not kill all adds before the % is complete, then some things may de-spawn on you such as the big yellow bar boss and that is a good chunk of points lost.
Helpful steps more
Finish in under 15mins or as close to it as possible more
Also, Hero has matchmaking so if you are capable of getting the 100k but just don't have people to play with well. here you go.
Killing everything (yes this is obvious but it's not obvious how to maximize your enemy kills) here
This weeks Ordeal is particularly brutal with the amounts of champions there are in the strike so i thought a 100k guide for hero would help some people out to get that pinnacle gear.
Not sure if this has been pointed out before, but with a well built fireteam you can easily get to the boss under 10 minutes with +/- 88k points. Then, just kill as many harpies and goblins as you can, until you hit the 98k mark (iirc the boss awards around 2k points). Just remember that after the 15 minutes mark the points start dropping.
