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.

lol, i started at Rank 0, now Rank 3.5 (finishing 4 to get my last piece of gear today))), however the 'best' item i got is still only Rare (blue)
-
Enough said...Its Sunday, been playing since it came out everyday non-stop, got to rank 5, win 3 times the hand cannon, twice di Hammer, a Thunderlord and 3 legendary engrams but still...NO DAMN SHIP....that thing its the most rare thing I've been seeking in this game...
-
Rarest item in the game or got 5 already, depending on who you ask
-
Not played much IB but did get to Rank 5 on 1 character, got 2xJolders Hammer, and 1xBirth of History. No Timurs Lash as of yet but might give it a last shot tonight. I saw 2 other drops for the ship whilst I played, but does seem like the ship is the rarest of the IB drops.
-
I got it, and it raises a lot of commotion in orbit :). It's actually nice that it's so rare, and IB ending on Tuesday so not many people gonna have it. #snowflake
-
I get my on wensday when i reach rank 5 and lead my team too victory whit 7000 points 28 kills whit my mythoclast
-
The rngeesus of the iron banner has blessed me well. I got timrs lash, and the ship.

Edited by PbWorks: 11/24/2014 10:04:25 AMI ranked from 1-5 this week. I received 1 TL and 1 BoH. I only saw 4 other TLs get given out, that's it. There were a few other non IB drops as well, but it was pretty sparse in my sample. Edit: got my Space Bus while earning a "Best Around" medal. Got my Lash while screwing around with bounties, and getting last on my team. With RNG, you never know...
-
I got my space bus tonight, going almost last in a game with a man down, with a maybe 1.0 k/d RNG strikes again.
-
saw 4 or 5 in the loading screen, but never see a drop...
-
I have seen it drop twice. Both times it was given to the losing teams player that was lagging so hard no-one could damage him in my full fire team. 6 co-ordinated people blasting mr. Lagalot every time we saw him and not once, not twice but three times (across two games) he wiped our full team by blinking, shotguning and lagging everywhere. We would see him walking into a wall only to get blasted in the back by him and his SG. We would shoot his player that is inspecting the wall only to get killed instead by him using the power of illusion magic. Two games in a row that dude lost, lucked & lagged the F out and placed 2nd on his team and received BoH both F'ing times -_- I wish my net was that bad so i could just lag and get BoH for using no skill just bad connection.

Seems rare. I am lvl 5 on my Titan and lvl 4 on my warlock and I have seen it drop once. I've only gotten Timur's lash. Hoping for Joulder's hammer before it leaves so I can reroll it for some good PVP perks. Not that I don't love my swarm..
-
Got two of them giant toasters :)

Edited by Ruined: 11/24/2014 5:16:48 AMI am Rank 5 Iron Banner. Started at Rank 2. Received: 0 Iron Banner Drops 1 Exotic Drop (MIDA Multi Tool - 2 days before Xur stocked it) 0 Legendary Drops Not a big deal, but just goes to show rank doesn't mean you automatically get IB drops.
-
It's super rare, I've gotten my Warlock to rank 5 and beyond and my Titan to rank 3 and I've only seen it drop once, not even for me. I really want it.
-
I want it too I have the revolver though
-
It is rare I finally got one last night
-
Level three. Not seen a single drop of iron banner ANYTHING.
-
Space bus is shy bus
-
I have had 3 timurs lash, 2 j.hammers and still no ship and reached rank 5 ages ago
-
I just hit rank 4 haven't gotten anything but to be honest the only thing I expect when I play is a win if I get something cool if not no worries..
-
I got the guns drop the first go. I finally saw the bus drop when I hit rank 4 and went 25-6 top player and 2nd to last on my team got it. Love u rng!
-
Within the last 2 days I got this ship through iron banner... as well as a Plan C fusion rifle exotic weapon drop during a strike. Lucky me.
-
I've seen a few people get it post-game IB. I've also seen a few people when we're all flying together before a match have it. I myself have it. RNGesus.

The majestic Space Bus comes and goes as it pleases
