Guardians will need to go through four cycles to get all 16 orbs ready. The fight against Oryx is an involved one, so patience and communication will go a long way here. Ideally, your Fireteam will have roles and positions confirmed and ready to go before entering the fight. This encounter was widely considered one of, if not the, hardest encounter in Destiny. Good luck!
