Iron Banner drop rates are ridiculously low. A buff is needed for the next one.

Title says it mate!

  • I agree the engram drop rates need looking at, but my issue is the inconsistency. I am not even chasing the weapons, but I would've liked a full suit of armour for each class. I have completed all bounties on all 3 classes, plus the quest, but I am missing the titan helmet and warlock bond. My gameplay breaks as follows: Hunter - won 12 / lost 7 (Full set) Warlock - won 13 / lost 9 (Missing bond) Titan - won 27 / lost 27 (Missing helmet) But I have recieved a ridiculous amount of hand cannons and rocket launchers. Not sure what a good solution would be. Maybe quests for each armour piece, since there is one for the weapons(Although I didn'tl ike that it was account wide). Maybe bring back iron banner daily bounties and bonuses to token drop rate if wearing iron banner emblem and shaders to increase the oken economy, I liked this from Destiny 1. Maybe make Saladin similar to any other vendor and if you open X number of packages you unlock being able to buy base light level armour pieces. Black Market iron banner tokens by exchanging resources with Spider. I understand that the god rolls should be left to RNG, but I don't see the harm in giving clear paths to complete collection entries. I found iron banner less enjoyable, and more stressful which is why I am backing off of destiny for a while to cleanse my palette.

  • Drop rates could use a buff. Also why are we getting other weapons like bite of the fox and crap when we turn in engrams? It should only give us the two featured weapons and armor for said IB. Another issue is idiot team mates that do nothing bit make you lose. There is an influx of them in IB.

  • Is there any data to support your conclusions? I'd like to see HOW bad it is

    • Turned in 500 Tokens between all 3 Characters. Got one Forward Path: Flared Magwell, Dynamic Sway, and MultiKill Clip. Everything else I got was mostly either the scout rifle or Sniper. Some armor mixed in.

    • Same. Drop rates are really bad, overall. 2.5k tokens for 4 FPs. No god roll, whatsoever.

      • Took me 2k+ tokens to finally get my god-roll swarm of the raven to drip with an updated seasonal symbol 🙄

        • I turned in around 2,000 and got maybe 4 or 5 Forward Paths. 1 decent one. I was swimming in Ravens and Spheres though. It would be nice to at least be able to pick between weapons or armor... ya know, like D1 had.

          • I've spent around 1100 (had around 600+ left over from last season) between 3 characters and got 5 sidearms and 3 autos...out of those, 3 had the new perks but the overall rolls were utter cowpat... Other than that majority of the drops were either armour or swarm of the raven 😒

          • IB should drop IB gear - it certainly shouldn't be dropping blues, that's for sure. Really hope they give Frostmire's Hex the ransoms rolls treatment in the future.

            • They're terrible. Thrown in nearly 400 tokens and managed to get every drop except the auto and sidearm Only got them from the quest and they were terrible rolls.

            • Token system seemed to be messed up too, like they changed the weighting to weapons more than armor. I normally get full sets of armor after each IB, not this time. Then again I realized how ugly the armor was and deleted or used it for infusion.

            • Yeah they should increase the post match reward rates specifically tuned for iron banner gear. That and or a combination of increasing the tokens for match completions.

            • This. Haven’t seen one of the new perks, been playing every day. Was super-startled that the seasonal IB quest didn’t drop the 2 new perks guaranteed.

              • I would rather see some daily counties for more tokens. Or something that increases token drops for legendary shards.

                • They also need to buff the amount of tokens at the end of a match. Since it's a week long once a month event as one would say. They should double the token amount. Losses give 6 tokens, wins give 10 tokens. That or as you say just increase the drop rate of iron banner gear at the end of matchs.

                    I would like daily bounties. I was done playing after 1 day on all three characters with the weekly with no real way to farm tokens other than 3-5 at a time via wins or losses and hope I get a drop at the end. I have a few god roll PVP Fool's remedy but not a single good Path Forward. I wanted a god roll PVE Fool's Remedy but no such luck and wasting 10-15 minutes to grind out 5 tokens isn't worth my or anyone's time.

                    • They expect you to farm for desired roles using the tokens, I guess.

                      • Agree 100%..even I just want to farm shards..my guardian is on social assistance with only 25 legendary shards..I’m not saying 2-3 drops but hell I’ll take 1 legendary drop per loss or win..on the other hand I just want a decent crimils hand cannon.

                        • Its going to be this way for all light level enabled activities. Its to motivate you to play more to reach max level and play the content just to farm a decent roll which will be dead in 3 months.

                        • 1 drop for every 2 wins. Feels about right.

                        • If only we lived in a sensible world where things worked like that eh...? But you have to understand that the whole system, doesnt work that way. Light/power level means absolutely nothing, a level 750 enemy can still deck you. This game relies on everyone chasing the dragon and not asking questions
