I beat him because I wanted the ship. Of course it took 3 bloody goes for it to drop :( On the bright side I got the 3 ciphers out of it. Lord of Wolves is beastly, Queenbreakers Bow is fun to use and surprisingly good when you get a feel for it, dregs promise sucks balls lol. The elemenal primaries drop so infrequently, and are generally so bad, its painful. The only ones that are decent are the handcannon and scout rifle, but they come with very bland perks. They just have decent base stats :/ Its so strange how the current top-end, longest and toughest PvE encounter yields poorer rewards than past raids. Black Hammer, Fatebringer, VoC, Fang, Found Verdict, Swordbreaker, Mythoclast (though to be fair as its an exotic its better compared to the Cipher weapons) all miles better rewards than the tat that Skolas occasionally remembers to serve up...
