I'd say go for it. Might sound like I'm bragging, and I'm not (Day 1 player had to buy my Gally from Xur), but I got the Elder Cipher my first time beating Skolas which was 1 day before the update...not sure if it has changed but I'd say go for it.

  • So you mean, in order to get the Elder Cipher you need to beat Skolas and have a Treasure Key and open the middle chest, the big one? If that's the case that shouldn't be hard to get since you get one every week when you turn in your first Queen's Bounty. Did I get it right?

  • So you no longer have to actually complete the bounty to receive one of those three weapons?

  • I know right people now don't have to wait at least 3 days to complete the bounty

  • Ok . Well that makes sense now. They probably crunched the #'s and saw no one really got or/was using the new Exotics from HoW and they changed that dramatically to where you can just get them from Lev 28 and up...

  • I still don't have a Nechrochasm. I've had my Eidolan Ally for probably 6 months. WTF. What a joke. I remember when Crota hard came out. It took an act of God to beat it (unless, you are like one of the salty players on here who have unlimited amounts of time to play and will immediately respond to this post that 'I suck' or 'Quit whining') and have unlimited (seemed like) amounts of time to sit around and formulate strategy that The CIA and SEALS Spec. Forces would be proud of, you just weren't getting the Nechrochasm (even though you busted your ass getting the Eidolan Ally levelled up). Still sitting in my Vault. I think the only Dark Below Exotic Weapon I ever found handy was the 4th Horseman. Never really had the time to get the HoW exotic weapons. Something tells me there aren't many to come with TTK. I don't know.

  • Close. The weapons themselves come out of the chest and (unconfirmed) it can come out of any level key chest. So in theory, not too bad. However, I've beaten Skolas 6 times I think and probably 20 level 32 and 34 clears each. 75% of those I used keys on and I've only gotten the 1 guaranteed exotic that you get the first time you ever open the chest.

    I got mine on . . I think 6 clears. 1 elder cipher from skolas. The other actually came from a lvl 34. Never got a third though.

  • Skolas is supposed to give you a cipher
