A Fireteam of me and two of my close friends just downed Skolas. Here is how. Step 1: Have Gjallarhorn (I know it isn't necessary but its what we used and there is no excuse not to have one.) Step 2: Stock up on synth 25-30 (Eris can provide for Black Wax Idols, Variks for Ether Seeds, and the Gunsmith for glimmer.) Step 3: Make sure everyone has a 365 primary. (The Small Arms modifier is essentially primary burn. This will count for a lot of damage.) Step 4: Begin the fight by running to the right of the arena. Fight atop the platform and FOCUS adds. (Adds refers to additional combatants, generally queued by the boss.) Side note : The [b]Ghost Servitors[/b] can be located under the far right platform, the left castle, and in the two planes on either side closer to the middle bridge. Step 5: The Adds will be completely eliminated after step 4. Find a [b]ghost servitor[/b] and kill it (I suggest shotguns) this will "break his bonds" allowing pratcal amounts of damage. You will now drop Skolas down to roughly 65% health. Step 6: This is a big step. At 65% Skolas will infect one team member ([b]DO NOT PANIC[/b]) this "curse or disease" only blurs vision and.... Kills you if a teammate doesn't remove it within 30 seconds. [u]Staying together is crucial at this point.[/u] Rotate between the far right platform and the far left castle killing adds and transfering the disease. Step 7: Bigger step. [u]After wiping out the adds.[/u] Kill another [b]ghost servitor[/b] and drop Skolas down to roughly 50%. [b]You won't need to kill another ghost servitor after this. The bonds will be permanently broken.[/b] Splinter mines will spawn between three static locations (the far right platform, the far left castle, and slightly to the left of the main bridge.) these mines require disarming. [u]The least amount of time one guardian can defuse a mine is 10 seconds[/u]. This is the most chaotic part (We had two Defender Titans in the team and that proved invaluable at this point. If you dont have defenders crouch and move erratically to avoid gunfire.) I suggest Defenders for the bubbles, SunSingers for the rez (if killed under a mine), and BladeDancers for the invisibility while crouched. Step 8: After dismantling the mines bring Skolas down to 30% health. Step 9: Synth and destroy Skolas once and for all! (Until you want to run it again.) Step 10: Eyes up Guardians! [b]YOU ARE'NT DONE WITH THE FIGHT[/b] Your team must dismantle one final set of mines.
