Just as the title said. Iron Banner gear should go for glimmer not marks.
Edit 1: Keep in mind IB has also, for the last year, had end game light levels. will these be in the RNG drops.
Edit 2: So when looking in the armory the gear is set at 280 for IB. if we are 290+, why grind. I may be miss adventuring. And i may not run the IB. Sorry for the post now.
-
Maybe give 3 or so marks per win? More incentive for people to do IB
-
Everything in this game is wayyyyy to easy to get. The sleeper simulant was a breeze to get and now the whole world will have it within a week. Leave the marks.
-
Iron Banner drops will probably be RNG light level like you get from strikes and engrams. So the light level will be around your current light level. If you are not lucky you can use legendary marks to buy the 280 version just like with other vendors. Iron Banner isn't a method to get max level anymore. It has been this way since House of Wolves. Trials is the new PVP endgame. Iron Banner is more pg-13 midgame now

Edited by Gunship: 10/8/2015 1:41:47 AMIn case people don't realise it, we are also screwed now fighting Iron Banner against the folks with Raid Gear. You know, the stuff 4 out of 5 of us don't have... The gear sporting 310 ratings... Which would be, BETTER than exotics...
-
They said we will be likely to not have to buy ib gear anyways cause it will all drop in the players to way more often and include armor as well as weapons.
-
Oh don't worry. I'm not going to bother with iron banner.
-
If glimmer base I like that but I -blam!-ing hate that all three characters share 200 marks instead of separate 200 marks, I mean I buy one weapon from any vendor at 150 marks, but I cant buy another thing like class armor or ghost for another character.

Edited by Gunship: 10/7/2015 1:56:39 AMIt's just more crap meant to drag out the process of getting anywhere in this game.

Edited by Gu4rdi4n Down: 10/6/2015 2:47:31 PMNone of it should be available at more than light level 280, save the top tier (300+) stuff for raids only...
-
The real question is, what the hell good are shards and energies now?
-
Silken codex, network keys, etc are now pointless, I've been storing mine for IB and I'm pretty much at the glimmer cap already, so I don't know where I'll be spending that earned money. Using marks for IB means I'll be having to grind out mark earning at the same time as running banner next week... That'll be easy alongside a job and life!
-
Hope iron banner rewards a ton of marks then. Something like 25 per rank would be sufficient.
-
I agree but on the flip side armour will drop in game for free.
-
Now this I agree strongly.
-
I disagree. But to an extent having to spend 150 marks on 280 gear is a waste. Just the time it would take to infuse said gear to 310 scares me. End game activities should reward end game gear. Not 280.
-
No it's legendary so it should probably go for -blam!-ing legendary currency.
-
The gear that drops at the end of matches will be 290+
-
Why have glimmer at all? The only reason why I had glimmer was to purchase the equipment from the Iron Banner and the occasional telemetry kit. With this switched to Legendary Marks who uses glimmer?
-
It's funny, before "Legendary Marks" I had hoped that they would go back from costing glimmer to costing marks, but reading these forums it looks like they've somehow managed to add another dimension of grind to the game. Nice.

I'm your huckleberry... - old
I'm indifferent... I hated being at level 5 by Sunday but then having to spend 5 days farming the drop zone cabal mission a hundred times or more to get the glimmer to get gear for multiple characters. However, I may be in luck as I only have 2 characters at 40 (titan and hunter) and the Titan gear doesn't look appealing. So I have decided to only get gear for 1 character. -
Unless you get guaranteed marks from Iron banana then I'm ok with this choice.
-
But the gear and guns have a chance for drops
-
Bump.

Well what if the gear is 3 marks and guns are 5 pieces, and you can get tons of marks every day
