Skolas no longer beatable
Nice hotfix. He's gone from absurd to impossible.

Some bragging its quite easy? Remember some players aren't as good as others. Our team didn't finish it. I left as it's boring as hell waiting for stupid ammo synth timer. Takes the sting out the action.

How is it impossible when it's been beaten lots of times?
-
1 ReplyCe and vog had the same whiners in it until people got the hang of it Biggest mistake is not clearing ads 2nd is not communicating 3rd is waiting to long to rotate Good luck

2 RepliesMy issue isn't that it's hard. My issue is it's incredibly boring and time consuming. I prefer to hit and quit video games not sit there running around aimlessly not dying. Terrible mechanic.

Edited by georgiii: 6/23/2015 1:21:50 AMReally I beat him twice this week. Really not that bad to be honest. Hell the round with the 36 captain took us 4 tries we best skolas in 1. The key is communication and teamwork.

3 RepliesI have to disagree. I'm not the best player and I run with a guy that is pretty bad at times but we were able to beat him. We did have to wipe a few times just because we didn't get the timing for the poison and mines down, but once we did it was pretty straight forward. I'm by no means saying it's easy, but if you make sure you're clearing adds most of the time then when you rotate you shouldn't have too many issues.

Easier and more fun Instead of waiting in the airlock for super or for heavy sync cool down we can go into the arena and fight It tests our teamwork just like running relics in atheon or coord the sword running in crota

Think you just need to learn to play
-
Dude if you can't beat him you suck. All it takes is skill I've beat him every week not once did I kill him in 40 sec. With gallie. So get your skill up befre you cry cause he's not hard just need good communication and teamwork
-
Disagree. It's easy easier now.
-
If you're bad, yeah, you're correct.

RNG has been pretty shitty to me. Been playing since beta, and I still do not have Ghorn, Fatebringer, black hammer, and others that my friends all have had for ages. Just yesterday morning, I did 2 level 35 prisons back to back within 2 hours. Skolas is not impossible, and not even hard if you're patient. We beat him with one person using ice breaker, one using a 365 hunger, and one using 365 truth. The problem most people are having but not willing to admit: they want quick victory. Which is stupid, because video games are supposed to challenge and entertain. I am neither challenged nor amused when all I have to do to beat the big bad boss is button mash one or two buttons for five minutes. In all honesty, I wish Bungie hadn't nerfed Skolas so much. The majority of us were doing fine. I've beaten him at least 3 times per week since HoW deployed; sure, the old way could potentially take longer, but it's what made you feel so accomplished when it was over.

Its better now then it was. Yes it takes time and running it with a good group of people that are willing to work with you. Hell, at least the map is playable now.
-
He's gone from any idiot with a certain weapon being able to cheese him, to being a decent test of player skill and teamwork. I really like the fight now, I preferred doing it without cheese anyway (at least with void burn). This way of doing it was nothing new to me. Bungie made great changes to the fight. It's legitimately challenging as opposed to being unfairly difficult.

Skolas is not impossible.He's easier to beat now.

1 ReplyHe's gone from doable with Gally to doable without one. Is that what people were crying for? Yes he takes longer than usual, but I'm an average player who beat him first try. It's a simple fight if you have a decent team and are communicating. What's your strategy?
-
5 RepliesWhat primary weapons with elements do you get from it when you beat him again? Can't remember. :o)
-
I beat him 2 times on both characters :/
-
It's not impossible and it's not easy. Just takes team work and communication
-
It's way easier, just takes allot longer.
-
Beat him 3 times this week 2 hunger of crota 1 gally 3 black hammers
-
It's actually easier now. the fight takes longer but as long as your group works together it isn't that hard. Yesterday I tried him post-patch for the first time, and another of our team had only beaten him one time before the patch, and we beat him on our first try.
-
Beat him 4 times this week. Scrub much
-
Best him 5 times this week. Two of them were on Tuesday. All of the Fights had 1 person missing gally. 4 out of 5 fights were with Titans. Out of all of them, wiped 2 times total.
-
Our group completed all 3 level 35 runs in less than 3 hours this week...
-
Beat him 3 times this week once was helping a friend that has no Ghorn or mic.
