Have fun farming the new PoE primary.

These are the 4 new primary weapons that can drop in PoE level 35: [spoiler] Six Dreg Pride II (Hand Cannon) Wolfslayer's Claw II (Auto Rifle) Wolves' Leash II (Scout Rifle) Aegis of the Kell II (Pulse Rifle) [/spoiler] They can [b][u]all[/u][/b] drop with each element. That means there are [b][u]12[/u][/b] different weapon combos that can drop. But, there is also the 6 different perks the weapon can spawn with: [spoiler] [b]Demotion[/b] This weapon has a chance to stun Fallen Captains. [b]Disciplinarian[/b] This weapon deals a small amount of bonus damage to Fallen enemies. [b]Dreg Burn[/b] This weapon deals moderate bonus damage to Fallen Dregs. [b]Shank Burn[/b] This weapon deals moderate bonus damage to Fallen Shanks. [b]Mutineer[/b] This weapon has a chance of suppressing a Fallen Captain's abilities. [b]Vandal Burn[/b] This weapon deals moderate bonus damage to Fallen Vandals.[/spoiler] This means each weapon can drop with [b][u]3[/u][/b] different elements but at the same time also drop with [b][u]6[/u][/b] different perks. This results is that the primary weapon can be dropped in [b][u]18[/u][/b] different versions. But it doesn't stop there... [b][u]All[/u][/b] the weapons can drop. Which means there are [b][u]72[/u][/b] different weapon setups that can drop, so it might take a while before you get the weapon you want. Oh.. and I almost forgot.. Did you know the weapons does [b][u]not[/u][/b] have a 100% drop chance? There are people who killed him 6 times (the maximum amount you can do it the 2nd week, if you don't delete characters) and still have not recived a primary weapon. So if you think it was bad to farm for those weapons in VoG and Crota, well, that was just the warmup... [b]Have fun Guardians.[/b] Oh and one more thing... Remember some of those awful perks i showed earlier? They are not extra perks like the hive disruptor on crota gear or oracle bonus on vog gear. They [b][u]replace[/u][/b] 1 of the 2 mainperks on these weapons. So chance are when you do finally get one, your old etheric light upgraded weapons are most likely better. [b]Yay[/b]! [b][u]Edit[/u][/b]: Primary elemental weapons drop directly from killing skolas (small chance) and not in the chest with key. Seems to be some misunderstanding in here about this. [b][u]Edit2[/u][/b]: another confusion seems to have arisen. You only get one chance per character per week to get skolas to drop the weapon, just like the old raids. If you kill him with one char and you get no drop, you're out of luck that week. As I said further up, the maximum amount of times you can kill him the 2nd week is 6 times (3 different character doing it both resets). "Farming" doesn't imply that the normal rule of 1 lockout per week is gone. I mean "farming" as in doing him 3 times a week (with 3 characters) for god knows how long since there is so many different versions.
