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.
-

-
I've gotten 2

Edited by InfectReality: 11/23/2014 10:29:15 AMCaptured most points. Highest k/d. Top score. Rank 5 since Friday, still playing for ship. A 0.5 k/d ratio, no captures guy got the ship and an ascendent shard. Felt really good.
-
I just hit rank 5, and I've had one Iron Banner loot drop, the pistol. I have seen 3 people get the ship, and one of them went to the worst player on the team. This loot system sucks balls
-
I got 2 ships but no leash... The hand cannon is all I wanted lol
-
On a starting match, one of my teammates had one. IT WAS HORRIBLE! I dont know why people want it....
-
Rank 5 probably over 100 games now. Received 1 lash 1 hammer. Want the ship so bad. Must play every free moment. Then can quit PvP for a long time. Bungie knows the ship is all that is keeping us playing.
-
I've seen one person with it.
-
I've gotten 2 of them yesterday, hammer and lash.. I ended up playing for about 9 hours throughout the day with my GF. She got to see me freak out when I did get it lol.
-
It's a lower drop chance if anything. Got it today when I did a random game in the morning to finish up yesterday's bounties.

Edited by Eluminary: 11/23/2014 5:00:22 PMI saw several hammers several lashes in my trip to rank 5. (One of the lashes to me on one of my better games my team won i had highest score kd and kill count a rarity for me) but I never saw a single birth of history drop for anyone.
-
Seen 3 drop. None for me....
-
I stole your luck. Got the ship. Got an amazing timur's lash. Got rank 5. Got revenant from dead orbit just after. Then I called thunder lord for my friend's legendary engram and he got it. Been a good day for me. I'm going to bed so you can have your luck back. *praise be to RNGsus*
-
I got it the game after I turned rank 3, it's not that rare, but you do have to be at least rank 3 to get it.

Edited by ScrubLordEkim: 11/23/2014 3:47:22 PMI got the Birth of History in my 4th Iron Banner game this week. D: I was in second place on the winning team, I think my k/d was 1.3 or so. On a side note, a guy I was playing with got The Last Word and the OP Hammer (lol, stupid impact) in the same game. Like both were in his reward slot, that's like a 1 in 3,000,000 change. Ugh
-
I've received 4 hammers so far. Haven't even seen the ship drop yet
-
Rank 5, 72 games played. I have seen it drop exactly zero times. For anyone in the game.
-
You have to take into account it shares a drop pool with lash and hammer. So while it might have a similar chance it's still going to be quite rare. My friend got it from the previous iron banner with relative ease.
-
Someone in my group and I got the ship in the same game
-
Got it the first iron banner. Was such a grind since I played it solely for the ship. Played all week IB was up for and literally got the ship in the last game I played.
-
Two of my clan mates, who no life Destiny, have received it. The rest of us put in a decent amount of time too, but haven't been so lucky.
-
Just got it after 5 days of non-stop playing.
