Yeah. You can basically snipe the entire thing. Each time you enter a new area just stop for a minute and wait. Vex and fallen will literally clear each other out. In the room with the ketch just run back towards where you entered once you start the ghost door opening sequence. High up there's a rock you can hide behind to take out everything safely. Only thing you really have to worry about is hobgoblins. They can kill you really fast so stay covered and get them first. After that don't rush through on a pike but rather take them all out from range. You can clear out everything without taking fire. Then after you clear out the archon priest area once you activate him you can hide safely under the platform to the right of the egg shaped thing he gets out of. Basically just jump on the rock at the left corner of it, crouch and crawl under. As long as you stay in the back or under the stairs you're mostly safe. Basically just kill any of the adds that pester you - be careful of captains - and when you can lay into the archon priest with whatever special and heavy you have. Headshots with sniper rifle when I could and then machine gunning his legs and body when I couldn't seemed to work well.
Yeah, it's cheese, but that's nightfall...
