PoE 35lvl Rewards are not woth the effort, yes?
[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.

I agree that the rewards from level 35 PoE are severely lacking compared to not only past raids, but Trials of Osiris. The potential elemental primaries are far worse than those from Trials or the raids. Taking an entire perk slot for something like Dreg Burn or Shank Burn instead of placing it under another generally useful perk as the raid guns did is a dumb decision. The potential primary drops from 35 are not very good and the chest only drops regular queen weapons. Elemental versions of the Queen primaries would make the 35 chest and keys both very desirable. Trials is a far better use of your time with better rewards that are guaranteed to some extent. My solar Summoner wasn't a great pull, but I know I could get a Void Scholar or Messenger on another character or next week that is much better than any void gun from the PoE bunch. And you get much more Etheric light for comparable time played by getting to Mercury than beating Skolas. Bungie should absolutely balance the 35 PoE rewards and make keys something you want and are worth the grind if you don't have a new exotic bounty that demands one or more.
