[b]Why the reward system (rewards overall) and the whole encounter are really bad:[/b]
- VoG's raid weapons are BETTER (more interesting perks + 1 extra perk just for VoG encounter),
- Crota's raid weapons are WAY BETTER (more interesting perks + 1 extra perk just for Crota encounter).
- [b]Shank burn on Arc PoE Sniper rifle? REALLY? [/b]Have you even heard people saying " Oh, damn I just want to play Skolas to get this [place the name here] PoE weapon, it is amazing!!!!" When we played Crota and VoG, people wanted these amazing weapons.
- [b]You get weapons and armor pieces on almost all checkpoints (Vog, Crota),[/b] it is worth the effort. You don't even have to play the final boss to get rewards, if you don't want to.
- [b]Chests can give you exotics and you don't need a key to open the chest in raids[/b], (LOL :)) Queen's Weapons from the Level 35 Chest? No, thanks.
-[b] There are NOT checkpoints[/b], so you have to finish the whole thing one day. You can't come back later and you can't AFK/wait to do normal life stuff because you will be kicked.
- [b]The drop rate in PoE (of exotic bounty & PoE weapons) is really, really, really low.[/b] I have never see any drop of PoE weapons or new Fallen Exotic Bounty yet...
- [b]You can get Exotic Bounties on Level 34 activity. [/b]There is no point to play Skolas, if you can get fallen exotics on a more interesting level 34 activity without fake difficulty.
That's it.

PoE=Not worth the effort when i haven't seen anyone with a single gun that can replace the pre-dlc weapons we already have. Trials weapons, I've heard that some of those are comparable. On 34 PoE, we ripped through all the stages up to the vex boss and then I'm not ashamed to say we spent literally 5 hours and only managed to get him down to around 35-40% health. Granted we had 2 lvl 33 and myself at 34, and only my one fully leveled gally but the difficulty spike was completely bullshit altogether and we all wasted our time. And for what? Drops that we're just gonna be annoyed to get? Drops that are generally almost useless to us? And Trials is terribly unbalanced it's just an atrocious turn off running into 3 warlocks. Basically gives them an unfair advantage because they get an extra 3 lives as a party and nobody else has that luxury. It's not a fair and square, balanced game mode if some people get a literal "do over" while when other players die, their turn is done. Basically the entire dlc is another example of something to do but a bunch of glaring fck ups that only make Bungie look incompetent and inadequate.
