Iron Banner, alt catch-up buff question...
Does anyone know if the catch-up buff works between ranks or does a guardian need to be a full rank clear of an alt for the buff to kick in?
Hunter at rank [b]2.7[/b] and Titan at rank [b]2.1[/b], will the Titan receive a buff until he reaches [b]2.7[/b]?
Knowing this will help me avoid grinding full ranks before switching guardians to complete bounties.
Edit: *** [b]I know how the ranks and various buffs work[/b] [i]other than this specific question[/i]. I'm not seeing an answer yet so I will do an experiment later and let you all know the answer.

2 RepliesYes, your highest rank character needs to have a higher number rank than your alt(s). So if your main is 3, and your alt is 2, you will receive the double reputation buff. Once they are on the same tier the buff goes away. Fractions or decimals of a rank do not count.

Your main IB character needs to be a level ahead of your alt. Best way to have 3 characters at rank 5 is to wait for the weekend. I usually play my main guy during the week and wait until Friday or Saturday to turn in the weekly bounties. That easily get him to rank 5. Than I switch to my Alt's and gets them to rank 5 on Saturday and Sunday with little effort. Good luck.

5 RepliesIf you get one character to level 2, your other characters will level to that point only at a faster rate.

4 RepliesI believe that it begins at rank 3, actually. Very possible I am wrong, although that's what I recall.

1 ReplyYou get a daily buff also, but the account buff works best when one character is a full rank ahead of your others. I'd play one up a rank or two before playing the other one at this point, especially if you have IB shaders, emblems, and class item equipped at same time on the first one.

I guess I need to waste a bounty and conduct an experiment to answer this question.

2 RepliesI thought the buff kicked in when you had one at rank 5

3 RepliesMY clan mate got 2 characters to mid rank 2 whilst I got one to close to rank 3 so I think the buff is available before rank 5 but there is no such thing as rank 2.7. The ranks are 0,1,2,3,4 & 5 so you would need to get your Hunter to 3 before your titan will get a boost

1 ReplyI'm pretty sure you need one @ rank 5 :)
