I've been playing the Iron Banner non-stop (For as much time as I can put aside) and I've never even seen the ship drop. Am I just really unlucky and it has the same chance as dropping as Timur's and Jolder's, or is it way lower?
EDIT: Since I posted this, I decided to play the Iron Banner for 24 hours straight. I received three Timur's Lashes and one Jolder's Hammer. I have seen three ships drop, but for players near the bottom of the scoreboard. I'm going to take a nap and try to get the Ship on the last day of the event, wish me luck Guardians, because so far it hasn't been on my side.
EDIT 2: Down to the final hours, it's a slap in the face watching one get dropped to the worst player on the team. Please RNGesus, that's the only thing I wanted from the Iron Banner. In other news, I've gotten two more Jolder's and another Timur's since the last edit too.I'm honestly about done with this game. Bungie always said that they wanted us to "earn" our gear, then why can't I "earn" the ship after playing the Iron Banner nonstop, trying my hardest to win because it's the only way to get it to drop, and then watching the players at the bottom get the things I was playing my heart out for? They didn't earn anything, they were given it by your screwed up Drop System. It's the same reason I see so many incredible players stuck at 29 before the Iron Banner came around, it's because of your screwed up system which doesn't make us feel like we earned anything, it's more like "Wow, I was lucky enough to get this." even if you didn't earn it.
EDIT 3: And thus marks the end of the Iron Banner. Didn't get the ship, so I guess I didn't play well enough to earn it. I'll probably be taking a break from this game now, had a blast playing with those who partied up with me and thanks for the fun.

24 hours stright? Did you sh it your self while playing?
-
I have 2 of them, as well as 2 Timur's lash. No hammer though. I hit rank 5 on the first day.
-
Ive gotten two of my characters to rank 5 in IB and played a bunch on my third to get him to near rank three and ive seen that ship drop one time....
-
I have two of those things
-
I've got it, and rock it only because very few people have it. That said, it is probably one of the ugliest ships out there...
-
It's the rarest ship.... *puts on sunglasses*.....in history! YEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH
-
5xJH, 2xTL, 4xLegendary E and the last word! Drop rates for the ship are ridiculous !
-
I played through the first iron banner nonstop and never saw it drop. Hit rank 5 last Wednesday and played every day. I have 5 lashes and 4 hammers. Never saw it drop for anyone. The last game I played last night I saw it drop finally and it was for me! Keep it up. I hope you get it. It's a beast!
-
why do u want it anyway? its a legendary ship of 10 rare ships nothing different but the color.. hell look at the raid ships and the queens ship all the same just color difference
-
Got one yesterday from a match I finished at the top with 22 kills, 10 deaths. Your not missing much though. it's the ugliest thing I've seen in the air, but I'll still rock it cuz it's my only legendary ship. I've got it equipped if anyone cares to check it out

Edited by ATLRhyno: 11/24/2014 2:46:19 PMSeen last player get JH and TL countless times. But I got the ship once I hit lvl 4. At the end of that game 2 ships dropped (one for me) and the last word. Was on top of LB btw
-
I've seen dozens of ships for other players, just not a single one for me :(
-
Never saw it once from 0-4
-
If you're rank if 5 you should be able to get it. I've gotten it twice now. =/
-
Dont you know? If you want to get good drops you have to have a KD of around 0.45.
-
I have never seen it drop and still haven't gotten Jolder's Hammer on my trip to level 5. Just gonna play a lot when I get home and hope for something.
-
I got one. *hits the blunt* Alright, alright alright.
-
Not rare enough, cos' I got this [i]big a$$ - double schoolbus - spaceship[/i] instead of getting ... I don't know ... Silimar's Wrath, Efrideet's Spear, Skorri's Revenge or Radegast's Fury (are those weapons even available in IB 2.0?)
-
took me a couple hundred games to get...so happy i got i t
-
Just got it, ugly looking thing lol, also picked up Jolder's Hammer, is it any good, should I even try reforging it? (prefer larger magazine size with heavy machine guns)
-
I think you're IB rank plays a role. I got NOTHING but a lot of crap (crucible rares) and NOTHING (literally) untill I reached rank three. Then I got one Timur's lash and one Jolder's Hammer, between the two characters I ranked up to level 4. Basically playing from Wednesdya to Sunday, I only saw TWO of the ships drop for ALL of the teams I played with...and against.
-
i have one :) i blew a load the moment i saw it
-
Edited by Skarush: 11/24/2014 1:50:47 PMKnows anyone if some weapons/stuff only drop, if you have a level of 3+ for example?
-
Gotta admit. It is unique
-
It looks like a square why do u want it? Lol
-
Birth of history ship is the rarest item you can get from iron banner.
