Loot drops for Skolas need serious retool
Seriously what is going on with the drop tables for Skolas? In all the times I have beaten Skolas since HoW dropped I have not only not received a version 2 primary, I have actually only seen two drop at all for other players. I have seen this mentioned in other forums and had other players complain to me multiple times about this. It seems like an easy enough fix and it's obvious that it needs to be done. Even if you are lucky enough to get a version 2 primary drop without better drop tables you're likely to get a primary you don't even want and then have to wait another month before you get one. This is ridiculous for the amount of effort one needs to put in to Skolas time wise. All of this of course is in addition to the lack of checkpoint and the potential for being booted to orbit at any time. I understand no checkpoint to some extent but, then they need to guarantee something worthwhile for your time.

2 RepliesI've received a couple of the primaries, but get trash out of the queens chest every time. Always ship, class item, and shitty legendary.

Our first guy felt like since he didn't have gjallarhorn he should leave, we invite 2 other guys and the last one does well then leaves. My friend's friend joins the party and he asks if he wants to do Poe 35 Skolas. His friend says he will only join with his cousin so I get booted. No checkpoint, no more skolas 5 hours wasted.

1 ReplyElemental primaries should be a guaranteed drop out of the chest, but only if the player has also completed the 32 and 34 PoE for that week. Currently, they are far to uncommon. I have one, a void Aegis of the Kell II.

Edited by MelodicMonsta: 7/10/2015 2:18:15 AMI've gotten 5 cypher and I've beaten PoE 34 or 35 well over 20 times. It's a shame I haven't seen one upgraded Fallen primary. It's that drop rate and the stupid queens weapons that are not burn enabled either that gives me absolutely no desire to play PoE anymore.

1 ReplyEdited by Pain the Human: 6/30/2015 4:13:11 PMPoE is more entertaining with blue guns. Try to beat Skolas with a shotgun. Lol May as well enjoy the ride, because the destination will let you down once you arrive. The buffs for Fallen on weapons are garbage. Only one that is good is the one that does bonus damage to all Fallen. That's it. That is it. Nothing else about them is even remotely good. Unless there is a horde mode with relentless enemies types, like the end of Taniks, when all the Dreg's pop out, it is a wasted perk slot. Give us something like changing between two elements on a primary. Why the ef haven't they done any other gun like that. Rant out. Lol

2 RepliesThe RNG is COMPLETELY random. Its a new lottery every time you play an event and the odds are not in your favor. From what I've seen your better off being a terrible player so RNGesus takes pitty on you.

1 ReplyThey are not going to do that just because you didn't get what you wanted

I hate to be this guy, but it's a tactic to pad game time in a game that otherwise lacks actual content. "No content? Well let's make them run a weekly for a few months to get what they want"

I think the loot system for POE (all levels) needs to be fixed!! Whos bright idea was it to have such a small loot table anyway?! In every other "end game" content you get loot from each stage (VOG, CE, and ToO!!) But in POE all you get is crap from two small chests and queens weapons that you already have 6 of?!?! Lets not forget the microscopic chance at an exotic from the "big chest" I dont even want to get started on keys..... Unless you are doing an elder cypher or going for the emblem, shader, and ship from skolas (thats me) there is ZERO reason to do POE. As soon as I finish my last cypher and can actually find a decent team/ enough time to finish skolas I will never go back into POE!

3 RepliesEdited by spaceme17: 7/1/2015 12:38:18 PMI'm sure that Bungie's logic on this is that people would do Skolas over and over to get a weapon drop so that players would be occupied until TTK. But Bungie also seems to make game play decisions for Destiny that are opposite of reality. If the drop rate is so low and if you get a drop, the weapon may be garbage, it isn't worth the time. I would love to see the statistics on Skolas completions. I bet the %'s are very low and dropping.

1 ReplyI'm on my 5th cipher drop, not a single primary, and a couple crappy secondary and heavy

Bump beat him 3 times and got nothing but ciphers.. Never doing it again..worthless

it's a blatant attempt by bungie to keep us going back to do skolas each week separate to that, they know they can get great PR from PvP elitism, so they're throwing out rewards like candy in that

Edited by aaron ff series: 7/1/2015 11:52:14 AMDid skolas yesterday didnt get anything not even the cipher its bullshit... probably not do again thats twice with nothing but pvpers get 100% drop rate from there chest in mercury... right....

3 RepliesPoe primaries are awful to start off especially w perks like "small bonus damage to shanks" or "dregs"--are they so op now? With no burn now, why would anyone want a solar or void version from scolas--trials weapons like an arc messenger is awesome especially since arc works against fallen enemies, but poe primaries make no sense

2 RepliesThe guns are sooooo bad, not even worth it. If you can pvp, the ToO weapons are where it's at.

Yer agreed thats why im not wasting my time on BS Skolas anymore
