Honestly Deej, this has been the absolute worst Iron Banner to date. The nightstalker glitch certainly hasn't helped either.
The damage curve for this round of Iron Banner is almost non existent. Would like to see the previous curve put back.
I like that weapons and armour are now part of the loot table, although I've only had the Titan mark drop for me twice.
Need to take the iron banner back to the drawing board

Dude what? The power curve is VERY significant. My Hawksaw in regular Crucible does 27 to the head, and 18 to the body. Now let's take it into IB. 290-310 - 26 Head, 17 Body 270-289 - 27 Head, 18 Body 250-269 - 29 Head, 20 Body I faced a guy who was 237 light and I was 302. My Hawksaw was doing 30 damage to the head. 30 -blam!-ing damage. That's 2-bursts. [spoiler]That same person used his Hammer of Sol, and my Golden Gun STILL couldn't one shot him, while he was below my light by 70. [/spoiler]

That isn't significant. A difference of 20 light levels should mean certain death.

Edited by Trio: 10/18/2015 6:23:57 AMTo be fair, the old curve wouldn't work all that well with this new Light system (which is a far better way to progress than year 1). I think 10 Light now roughly equates to the old system's 1 Light Level. So 310-300 on a roughly even playing field, with 299 and below suffering the 1 Level damage drop off from Y1. But it's all relative and skill/lag etc. still plays into match-ups.
