A lot of people have been complaining about the Skolas fight recently. The real problem isn't whether or not there should be burns. The real problem isn't the health or difficulty. It is the rewards. As a player with all 3 elder ciphers, more than enough etheric light, and no use for armor/weapon cores I have no use for this. They need to add a decent percentage of getting an exotic from the big chest. The only exotic I have gotten is from my first PoE run (it was a MIDA). I've done every level every week and am yet to receive an exotic. I'm not sure it is possible to receive an exotic, but if there is they need to increase the percentage of actually getting one.
TL;DR
[spoiler]Skolas rewards are sub-par. Add increased chance of exotics[/spoiler]
Bump if you agree, or post your opinion if you disagree.
Edit: Increase of primaries with burn is a common want so far too.

i would say up the chance of elemental primary or guarantee one. most people have all exotics or all the ones they really want anyways. I have completed Skolas 4 times now and haven't received a elemental primary yet.The other 4 or 5 people i play with regularly have beaten him at least 3 times each also and they have yet to get a elemental primary. for the length and tedium of the the fight,it should be a little more rewarding. I could run Crota with all 3 characters in the time it takes to do one PoE 35 and probably come out with much better rewards,since skolas has yet to drop me anything but a cipher so far.

2 RespuestasDisagree on exotics. They need to give guaranteed elemental primaries for the 35 POE.

4 RespuestasI feel they should remove the mines part. Why focus on all this goofy sh1t when all we want to do is kill the boss? It's bad enough you have to pass that infection deal around then, they want you to split up across the map to dismantle mines? Dumb.
-
Agreed. Even the Queens Web shader is limited to one account, meaning only one character gets the shader. Most likely the first character you killed skolas with. And the elemental weapons that occasionally drop? Can't compare to vog legendaries. I already have more etheric light than i need, and have skipped skolas for three weeks. Only did it again yesterday to help out some buddies. Raids are much more fun, while 35 PoE just feels like waves of punishment with shitty rewards at the end.
-
The only reason I even play PoE is to rank up house of judgment. Like you said, all the rewards are garbage. Plus the only exotic I'm missing is the crux so the exotics are useless to me as well.
-
put simply;players need more motivation/compensation for their effort
-
I agree. I'm up to 40++ etheric light and 34 on all characters already. Primaries with elemental damage are so hard to get here. At least with ToO I have a sure primary with burn.
-
If u post and get some decent players and have a reasonably run through rounds, it can still take up to 2hr to complete, you can do 2-32 and 2-34 in the same time. The rewards are rubbish and if you don't need that much ethric light there is pretty much no point. All the good stuff is in trails.

2 RespuestasIt's a fun fight but a bit chaotic

9 RespuestasEditado por Carolina OvR: 6/29/2015 1:05:23 AMThe problem is it is too easy and boring. And the rewards do indeed suck
-
1 RespuestaThe rewards blow
-
1 RespuestaThe real problem is people need to get better at teamwork.
-
The need to up the drop of elemental primaries from him.
-
1 RespuestaPrimaries with burn...
-
1 RespuestaYes. The fight is easily doable with a decent team. The rewards are horrible. Even for the cipher you can luckily go to the 34, as none of those weapons are remotely worth the time spend on the entire arena
-
I have recieved 4 exotics from that [b]big chest [/b] at the end. 1 on each character on my first time completing a 28. I got radiant dance machines to drop from the big chest after killing urrox this week.
-
Completely agree with this. I don't even bother any more. I managed to get 2 wolves leash from 2 runs! One solar and one arc! 4 ciphers, so I have no reason at all to do it!
-
3 RespuestasWant that wolves leash void scout Rifle only reason I keep doing it. For the Time & effort your not rewarded properly Shitty queen guns for the most part
-
1 RespuestaBump. That fight is too hard for the crap you get.
-
1 RespuestaExactly and even the primaries are garbage.
-
4 RespuestasPlay trials.
-
2 RespuestasTryna get a void wolves leash
-
1 RespuestaAgree! I don't go out of my way to do it anymore. Only if clan members need help with it.
-
Stopped fighting him, pointless loot. Had better luck with lvl 34 exotic recently.
-
They don't need to add exotic chances who even wants those anymore? They need to add a guaranteed tier 2 primary instead of having one drop 1 in every 6 runs and having it be the wrong element
-
the loot is utter trash unless you get a POE weapon with a good burn from skolas which seems to very rarely happen
