Fireteam is Hunter, Titan, Warlock all 34 and all max gjally, but we still get burnt up by Skolas.
Left side, pop bubble, rockets, but he either teleports immediately, shoots through the damn bubble, or the servitors screws us over. What gives?
Edit: u/CiosAzure's strategy worked for us! Thank you!

If you're going to only use rockets split up. Don't stack in the bubble. Spread out around the left side and use cover as needed, that way he won't teleport right on top of someone.
This, I see a lot of people say burning him doesn't work but they're all on top of each other and Skolas just teleports and kills them all.
you need to STUN him with high impact sniper rifles. good luck :)
Tried that, but only 2 of us has a maxed black hammer.
ah ok ... Its a good tactic though ... did that last week and it worked ... otherwise the strategy depicted in the Xbox Video looks nice
yeah one of you stun him and the other two use gallys
Thanks, but please check my edit to the OP. Managed to beat him last night.
we used 2 gallys and 1 sniper.
7x2 rockets then use synth
at this point me as hunter I shoot 2 more rockets then I go invisible and head toward the mid / far side and get in position for the mines.
the other two keep using rockets / other solar heavy on Skolas. It's important not to die :)
at the first mine I defuse and shoot gally / sniper at Skolas. He should be dead now.
edit: it was a pug team, I don't have a clan or friends that play :[
This is what me and 2 others did we went straight left and took down the first servitor as fast as we could. Our titan popped a bubble with WoL and we all used BH to stunlock Skola's until his bonds broke. Then we unloaded on him with Ghorn and he died.
We started with one Gally and 2 365 Black hammers. Gally guy dips into bubble to use synth, Snipers changed to rockets when his health got low. Seems to work better than all using rockets because you can stun lock him with repeated sniper shots to the dome.
havent tried Skolas yet this week but this is how I was planning to do it :)
We've done it twice this way, only setback is the odd occasion where you step out of the bubble at just the wrong time and die to splash damage. Solar Burn scorch cannon is a real bitch XD
have one of you team use a blackhammer of high impact solar sniper. That will stun him while the other two hit him with gallys. The third guy switch to gally when he needs to
Thanks, but please check my edit to the OP

This strat worked first try with my clan tonight.
Can confirm.
Taking candy from a baby.
You sir, deserve a medal. We have been having a hard time, just stumbled on your strategy and finally killed him. Thank you.
No problem! it's not technically mine, it's just the one my group uses. I'm just spreading it to help all my fellow guardians who are having as rough a time as I was!
Came here from google two months late and the video is unavailable :( Do you have another video of this strat? I need it!
good job!!
That's...genius! I know what I'm trying tomorrow.
Wow what a spot!
Edit: It worked for us! Thanks!
wow never saw this strat! very nice, i beat him with blackhammer and ghjalla on left side, the known one lol
Nice. Used the same strategy yesterday. Just a question what is giving you that "armor boost" stat buff in the video?
He must have gotten a fallen chest plate from the judgements chance
def. going to use this strat for my last two runs...
I did it last night with two titans and a warlock (I was a titan, but didn't need to use my bubble)
we all run left, bubble titan gallies the servitor, we unload rockets on Skolas while spread apart, once bonds were broken, bubble is popped for synth, by the time I went to pop my second synth he was dead, just had to clear the mines.
The run before we killed him but died to the mines. Oh and SGA - those mulitple kills in one run count towards your 1000 points on the elder cypher. I got my Queenbreakers Bow last night..
Can anyone turn this video to a YouTube video ?
