How To Solve The Skeleton Key Problem

I thought of an interesting solution to solving the problem of people not getting enough Skeleton Keys. What if a new set is added to the Crown Shop called the Obsidian Set and this set grants a Drowned Zombie companion (in a non-boss form to differ from Bosun Budd), and 4 Obsidian Skeleton Keys (enough to run each Obsidian boss 1 time). This set could be a 1 time purchase for 1,500 Crowns. What do you think of this idea?

I didn't know there was a problem, seems to me getting a skeleton key is fairly easy. We don't need to spend crowns to get them.
Now a pack with companion recruitment, new gear and a chance at keys is another matter...

Now that we are on the subject, why is it that the bosses are only giving us lvl 25 gear? Why do the Brass Monkey or something (not including Scratch or Blood) if we aren't getting the gear we deserve?

I believe they addressed this in last night's patch. At least, I'm not receiving level 25 gear any more (just level 55).

Obsidian Captain Blood still seems to have his minions dropping Level 25 gear, perhaps the other bosses don't anymore. Also, I got a Quackosaurus from Obsidian Captain Blood, maybe they implemented my 15 pet drops idea.

Or maybe, because these dungeons are in Skull Island, the Quackosaurus was already on the loot table. Bosses in Skull Island can drop the Quackosaurus.

Maybe if your crew is scavenging, they might find the occasional skeleton key. That would be a nice way to have some show up. Do they already? I don't assign that task often, so I don't know. Might be worth a test. If they don't, maybe KI could add it. With all the other things the crew can bring you, I don't think it would make there be too many keys available.

Scavenging only returns main gear pieces - hats, outfits or boots. The skeleton key being a housing item means that it would not normally be on the Scavenging list.
