This Iron Banner 2.0 is sounding much better!

For those of you who read the weekly update youve heard that Iron Banner is returning soon. BUT this time the level differences will make a more dramatic difference, there is incentive to stay even if losing (no hopefully no more rage quitters). AND iron banner armor will hold up to 30 LIGHT! This means that raid gear is no longer the only armor that can boost you to level 30. So those of you that just cant seem to get your hands on that one illusive piece of raid gear here is an alternate route to 30. Although Iron Banner gear is limited to only two available pieces so 1 exotic and 1 raid piece or 2 raid pieces and no exotic will still be required to hit character level 30. I know that alot of you PvP players will be very happy about this. Whilist some PvE players might have a different opinion. What do you think?

    People who are complaining about the Iron Banner gear getting people up to 30, are just foolish. Theres already speculation, that the next raid will have gear that will boost people up to lvl 32. So wouldnt that render VoG gear pointless? Somewhat, at least. So whats the big deal about being +1 level higher, seeing as most of the people who will benefit from the IB gear, are probably already 29. AND, really in the long run, this is more catering to the PvE player. Yes you get the armor from PvP, but what exacty is the difference between level 30 gear and level 29? Defense and light, meaning the only difference would be an advantage in PvE and the [i]occasional[/i] Iron Banner. How exactly does this effect you people who are level 30 already? Aww poor babies dont have bragging rights anymore. Think about it, more level 30s means more people who can actually help in Hard Raids. Thus Iron Banner gear will only be a crutch until otherwise receiving better raid gear. [b]ITS NOT A BIG DEAL![/b] [b]Acquiring Raid gear takes NO SKILL, [u]Completing the raid does[/u][/b] RNG decides your fate. Just because there are some people who made 3x same character to complete the raid 3x a week, and got unlucky several times and finally after several more trys, were able to get to 30, [i]doesnt mean[/i] that there arent the opposite, where some person used one character, got lucky and got all 3-4 raid gear in 1-3 games. Everyone who has worked so hard to get the raid gear and reach level 30 should be happy about this and quit complaining. If you havent realized that Bungie is going to balance every aspect of this game, the you are blind. Im sorry if your favorite gun got nerfed because it hits too hard or you cant loot the same cave for hours, but these are not the way Bungie intended people to play. No, im not trying to be a "white knight", protecting Bungie. Psssh, i think they've made more mistakes than they have to celebrate, but this Iron Banner gear is not one of those bad decisions. It will give opportunity to those less fortunate without either friends or a group to play with or they do not have the time to spend hours gearing up. And besides, its not like Iron Banner is giving out Vex Mythoclasts :P
