Is iron banner worth the grind

So I've been wrestling with this one for awhile is iron banner worth the grind. can anyone give me a reason to run it. the weapons seem average at best the armor looks ok i guess. it just feels very unrewarding it should be atleast a milestone event if nothing else what do you guys think.

  • You can get an emblem for opening 10 engrams, but aside from that there's not much reason to play unless you really want some of that armour. I've opened a few engrams playing this week but got no armour for my Hunter so i'll probably just leave it and see if they make any meaningful fixes in season 2

  • You guys are totally right i got bored last night and thought iron banner can't be any worse so i ran a few matches opened ten packages and well i was really disappointed got an emblem gloves two sidearms and the banner auto rifle most of the drops were common armor and weapons i used to look forward to iron banner in d1 and had a blast playing it i can't believe it's this bad now

  • No, but if you like pvp then it you might as well do it.

  • No...the "grind" is as rewarding as watching paint dry

  • No. There is no grind. It's all RNG. The Hunter armor set is nice, but I have no desire to play with my Titan or Warlock. Boring is the name of the game now.

  • During the first banner, I got suited and booted. Got my best guns on and proceeded to join a game. After a few minutes of nothing and still trying to find another 7 people.....I gave up and vowed not to waste my time again. From what I hear it’s a token fest of disappointment with rng rusting the cogs of industry with its salt. No Thankyou, I don’t want it. I’d rather paint landscapes on my car windows with my own rectal blood.

  • Yes Iron Banner is a blast! Especially since crucible in D2 is much more balanced. Don't listen to the negative posts, enjoy the game on your own. Don't get upset if you don't get full armor on all three characters right away, that would be stupid and no reason to play next round. Don't be part of the "I want everything right now" generation. Most of all remember THIS IS JUST A VIDEO GAME. Your in game accomplishments, while entertaining, mean absolutely nothing in reality. So do your failures in game, so don't get upset about losing a match. HAVE FUN!!

    • If you're wanting to get an armor set then no. In D1 you had guaranteed ability to get armor plus random post match drops. Last IB my titan got a butt towel and that's it. My Warlock got zip. I played last night and received no IB armor.

    • The weapons are underwhelming. The armor, just like all legendary armor in d2 without perks, is meh. So not really

    • I fell asleep while playing IB, and had to get a Redbull to stay awake. That should tell you something.

      • Short answer is no and long answer is maybe but that’s me. Why don’t you run a few games and see if it live up to your expectations?

      • really depends on you. last month, all I really wanted was the Titan helm and the pulse rifle. I only have a titan and warlock, and once I realized the way to play IB now is to get the three challenges done on each character and then stop for the day, it became pretty easy. I never thought I'd get to rank 10, but again, I realized once you get those 3 challenges done, you have 21 coins right there (plus either 5 per win or 2 per loss you obtained while getting challenges done). move on to your next character and repeat. you are better off doing this than staying on one character for hours. that being said, I played on both, but turned in all my coins on my titan, hoping for the helm. got to rank 15, but no helm and no pulse. kind of pissed me off, but now I have a reason to play. today, I got challenges and call to arms done on my 'Lock, turned in coins and first reward was the titan helm! so now I will turn everything in on the warlock. maybe get some armor for him too? the RNG sucks in this game. we all know it. just relax and have fun with it.

      • Got the auto which is nice! Comparable to origin story with less impact but 20+ more rounds in mag. Teamed with exotic rig, it's great in crucible. Also got the fusion rifle which I feel is better then merciless.
