A quirk when they do: the second of the expedition results pages (the one that actually tells you what you found) is skipped -- or was both times for me, so a little glitch there.
It's not a glitch, exactly. More like an artifact of a design decision. The Eyeless Skull is technically a Rare Success to Deep Blue Heaven. It replaces the flow where you find out your reward, rather than being one of the outcomes to finding your reward.
The fact that the Eyeless Skull reward is in a different branch has three in-game impacts:
- You cannot donate the Skull to the University factions, or pay Fate to re-roll it into a different reward.
- If you get the Rare Success, the Expedition overall requires one less action.
- The Skull is not in the Expedition loot table, so Fate expeditions that include Deep Blue Heaven's loot range cannot get that result.
The last of these is somewhat immaterial, since to my knowledge the Fate expeditions also include Skulls on their own loot range.
I absolutely agree that your hand goes to pot rather quickly. I unlocked the Nadir by doing it The Hard Way®, and then did it again because I wanted a Cinder as a souvenir item. Both cases took like a week, and playing cards was noticeably difficult by day 2 and literally unplayable by day 4.
