No. He's not. Please quit thinking everyone has your skill level.
We each had a ghorn, maxed at 365. All 3 of us were level 34. 2 of us had a black hammer. Everything we tried, failed.
Edit: We gave up, ran out of time. Certainly won't be trying again any time soon. I definitely will walk away from this defeated and broken down.
Edit: For everyone asking, I'm on PS4
Edit: this was posted the very first week of Prison of Elders, when the burn for Skolas was solar
Edit: just beat him a few hours ago. Thanks for all the helpful people in the comments below. Glad to see there are some good people in the community after all :). No it was not easy, but eventually it worked out (after much trial and error).

You only need 19 rockets and a few black hammer rounds to finish him. A lot of ppl assume you need to fire 7 each then pop a heavy and do it again.. Not true. We tried and failed.. Didn't want to wait in airlock for heavy cool down so we just went for it. Fired our rockets, hit him with black hammer, and kept doing so when the mine spawned. Got him down in about 30 seconds, ALL enemies despawned, no poison to pass like a chalice and easy mine diffusions. YouTube videos kinda ruin this game since you see worlds firsts and MLGs and assume its the only way to do it. For urrox too, on 34, we run out of the outer ring into the arena and use our jumps. You'll never die and can clear more space before landing and taking burn damage. I, as a hunter, can blink strike out there too if enemies get too close. You can also blink strike the mines to go invisible. This helps a lot.

We beat him two gally's I refused to use mine to prove a point, as long as you have ammo synth and weapons of light you can get him. We beat him first try :)
-
I did it twice with 2 gallys and my hunger haha :)
-
Each person needs to hit him with 14 Gjallarhorns
-
never tried it yet. fixing to today, with me as a hunter, and two defender titans
-
He not hard at all take titan put bubble then you safe keep shoot at him when the first mine pop up one in the team go for that ;) by that time you defuse the bomb he dead
-
Its apparantly arc burn this week. If I try it I will request fully leveled Fourth Horsemans. Time to melt Skolas. [spoiler]Ye[/spoiler]
-
See my group didn't do the whole 50 second take down thing. We just kept rotating, reviving, and shooting. After 30 minutes, 1 early wipe, and a batch of death, we did it.
-
It is, very easy.
-
Got him on all 3 of my characters last week. There in my opinion seems to be a little rng involved at times with his movement (teleport/aggro). It also takes some luck.
-
I agree. He is only easy if everything goes right. If you are quick enough. If Skolas doesn't teleport right up to you. If he doesn't teleport as you fire at him. If you have 3 people with maxed G-horns. If you don't get one-shotted by him. If you can dismantle the mines in time. And honestly, I think he will be harder this week with Arc burn.
-
Did you guys have heavy ammo synths?? Did you guys at least get to unload 14 rockets each after using 1 heave ammo synth each??? I GUARANTEE Skolas would've been dead if you had.....
-
It's harder to survive the waves to get to Skolas, than to kill Skolas
-
thats how we killed him yesterday, i was 33
-
That's pretty pathetic... It was solar burn. If you had 365 gallys and a Titan with weapons it takes 30 seconds to unload on him. Skolas was a joke. The servitor boss before him was harder and took longer to kill lol.
-
Skolas with the solar burn last week was easy I did it three times on my 34s this week will be harder because its arc burn an all the fallen will be wrecking.
-
Take 2 defender Titans with Saint-14. The Prison of Elders demanded Defenders since the start.
-
it's not supposed to be easy
-
Well it's too late now but there's literally no skill needed. All you do is pop a bubble and shoot all your rockets+synths. Dead under a minute
-
Same here man, same here.
-
Edited by Timrock599: 5/26/2015 11:04:41 AMIt's simple. 3 max Ghorns. 7 rockets each. Heavy ammo synth.. 7 more rockets each and he's dead within like 30-45 seconds. We did it with 2 hunters and a warlock.
-
You guys really sucked then. He melted in 30 seconds.
-
You weren't in sync that's why.
-
Yeaa skolas with solar is caaaake.
-
I'd say this fight is piss easy (with solar burn that is). Beaten it 4 times now and apart from the first time where we wiped about 3 times Skolas was down first try every time.
-
It's arc burn this week. Good luck everyone ghorns won't work this week lololololol
