Petition to fix Skolas
Give the burns back Bungie. 3 1/2 hours a counting....
-
2 man all the way to boss fight took 35-40 mins. Beat boss fight on first try after waiting in the airlock for a hike for him to join. In total play time only took about 50-55 minutes to complete it start to finish, and the first 5 rounds I did with o my one other person... People just need to get better at the game and play smarter.
-
I got it done without the nuke method with solar burn on. Small arms will almost make the adds as easy to deal with as they were with burn... Better get arc weapons back out for those shielded captains. Haven't gotten to try it yet without burn, but looking forward to it.
-
3 1/2 hours? That's a massive waste of time!
-
It's not that bad
-
It is better now. Even with the lightswitching fallen nanny's.. More teamwork style. But that is my opinion
-
1 ReplyNo burns, but without excellent management of adds and debuff, once mines come up(two at once.. Wtf), it gets too tough for most groups.
-
It's fine the way it is. People complaining destiny is adding more gametime...
-
8 RepliesI did it first try last night with 2 first timers... Picked up an elemental hand cannon and the other 2 got the Elder Cipher.

Hahahahahaha

5 RepliesFirst time I've ever done Skolas was this week! I think it took our group around 5 hours to finish it. It's a tough fight for sure!
-
I found him a lot easier just takes a little more time to kill him. Yes I beat him every week so far.

Your petition is a little late. They fixed him yesterday.

1 ReplyThe fix is a save system.

2 RepliesLol. But I thought he was nerfed. Lol.
-
17 RepliesLol terrible player. I did it last night and I am happy with the changes. No more burning him down. You have to fight the whole thing. Anyone that is complaining to add burns back is nothing more than a scrub who can't do the fight legit and wants their extra cheese poured back on the skolas fight. Learn how to work as a team or don't play it. Vault and crotas end have spoiled destiny players. I am sure over 50% of the player base just wants to cheese for the loot and not play a fight for real.

1 ReplyLol I tried telling everyone that this was not a nerf.... And people wouldn't listen I love the new fight honestly. The cheap burn method isn't even close to possible anymore (I've tested it) and playing through the mechanics seems much more manageable now. The fight feels very balanced and seemingly more the way Bungie intended for it to play out. Small arms and lightswitch made for a much more interesting set of challenges than just a burn. By far the hardest part is getting through the mines. The guy who is able to take the poison (not immune) is the VIP. He needs to be alive. It is his job above all else to stay alive and stick next to the person who's tainted. When mines come up, VIP and rained guardian should stick together, while the immune guardian can go to the other side of the map to head off one of the mines across the map. That's the best strat I've found. If you really want to control things, mines spawn at half health. Kill all the ads and get him near half health, and pass poison around until the immune guy is either a hunter or a Titan. Hunter can go invis across the map and take the mine down, and the Titan can throw his shield. Titans should save their shield for the middle mine spawn.

It's easier this way! If you've tried it then you would know this
-
5 RepliesAll I can say is I told you so. Everyone saying he was getting nerfed, and complaining. Now they have realised it's harder, these noobs also complain. For the record bungie never stated the fight was getting made easier. They said his Health would be reduced and that the burns would be taken away. Since burns give 3X damage and his his health would be halved, this meant his overall health would be increased by 1.5X. Simple maths, and many people tried pointed this out at the time only to be told they were wrong. At the end of the day the game is what it is. If it's too hard then play something else or just avoid skolas. I for one am glad for the change and looking forward to the challenge.

Did it in 90 min approx. 26 min on Skolas.
-
Edited by Sadistickitties: 6/16/2015 6:24:31 PMIt's more controllable now , not a question whether or not he is gonna teleport on you :) did it twice and had to wipe 5 times total .. You just run and shoot while staying together , not hard . Basically it's communication. Not a countdown to shoot a gally:p but wish ya luck
-
Quit cheesing bosses and beat it legit
-
They did fix him. Now you can't cheese him in less that a minute. It's honestly not hard if you take your time. My team did it in like 15 mins and we died several times during the fight.
-
Pffffttty
-
5 Repliesill second that nearly 5 hours in and only on second mines. last count we had over 300 deaths and thousands of kills yet skolas is still standing. Its easier on xbox one and ps4 coz they dont give a shit about 360 coz its old gen, its basically like forcing us to upgrade console. -blam!- you Bungie and FIX THIS SHIT!!
-
3 RepliesFunny, it isnt harder, its actually easier.
