Thinking about it, that one fight with the husks and scion was probably the one that gave me the second most trouble in the entire game on hardcore, after the Enyala battle. The long walk is rather short, but I found several parts of it pretty hard. On the other hand, I did find the collector ship the second hardest area in the game; the first battle you mention was hard, but it was really the praetorian that gave me the most grief. I didn't have that much trouble with the one Horizon, because it was alone, but adding a few Collectors/husks into the mix made it much harder to kite the praetorian.

I'm probably going to play through on insanity for the first time sometime in the next couple months, so I guess I'll see how these encounters go then.
