Skolas Chest? or just arena chests in general
Just a few quick questions here. Does skolas chest actuallly drop anything useful? I've beaten him 4 times now and have gotten the exact same thing everytime: ship, (cloak, armband, or skirt), and a worthless purple gun. Also was just wondering if the chests are any different for any of the other arena lvls, because I have only gotten a legendary once the first week it came out on the 28 chest and haven't gotten anything useful since.
If there is no difference in drop rates I'll probably just cut out skolas altogether since I have all of the elder cipher guns from him. Skolas is a terrible grind, and not a very enjoyable boss to kill anyway especially with no check points which forces you to commit hours to beat. Anyway, any feedback would be appreciated.

I've only ever pulled exotics out of the 28 chest. I've gotten 3 since the first week with almost automatic exotics

Edited by Z4KU II: 7/2/2015 4:02:32 AMBig chests in general are only for: 1. new players needing legendary weapons 2. Elder cipher bounties 3. first Skolas kill (for ship/shader/emblem) otherwise you should not bother unless you want more motes/coins. Skolas himself does drop elemental primaries, as well as the other reliable rewards.

Just need a good team, beat Skolas in 45 min first try this week. But to answer your ?, yes I always get the ship, skirt etc and a legendary gun. Did get an exotic helmet from a 32 or 34 chest last week trying to escalate my cypher.
