Add match completion bonus progress towards iron banner bounties

Some of the bounties feel like they take way too long to complete and while I get their intended to be completed over a week, this runs I to frustrating problems if you run multiple characters. Being completely honest, if I was a noob or casual player, I'd probably play 1 match look at how little progress I made in comparison to the headache IB can be and say, "welp I'm not completing that bounty." My thought is simple, completing a match awards a bonus of 5-10% completion towards all IB bounties on top of progress you made during the match. Doing this would do 2 things, it would incentive people not to quit and second it would speed up bounty completion

    People quit because the matchmaking is trash. They pair 3.0 KD players with 0.8 KD Players. Guess which one is more likely to leave because they are having a terrible time? I have a 0.9kd and I leave more than half the matches because players run the map getting 50 kills. It's not fun. I keep leaving and matching until I find a lobby of equal skill.

Even the most annoying bounties (ability kills is the only really bad one) are doable on all three characters each time with some focus and time investment. You get four pinnacles so the reward is worth the investment in general. Yes RNG pinnacle rewards will create situations where you don’t get what you need.

        I don’t feel we need something like this. My KDA is 1.1ish and I completed my bounties within a few hours. Yes, they are meant to be completed through the week. Sure, it can be a little stressing if it’s the last IB before season end and I know we want that loot. Let’s be honest here. IB is a nightmare with the amount of Mercy matches one can have and that’s just one of the glaring issues about the current PvP sandbox. But, your chances of getting a piece of gear that ACTUALLY benefits you or has the perks you want is likely to not happen over 4 RNG based drops with the current loot pool. Of course, this is if your base PL is 1320. My 2 cents. [spoiler]Please don’t take my 2 pennies. The copper alone will help afford my retirement.[/spoiler] Addendum - But, what if, to help curb Guardians leaving mid-match, you lose whatever progress you made on the bounties in THAT match?

      • The only problem bounty I have is getting assist kills. I purposely switch to an auto rifle so I can tag kills. Rarely do I get the chance of cleaning up. Sorry team for not trying my best, but I just want to get that bounty done so I can move to the next character.

        • I have a 1.1 KD apparently, and even then I finished all bounties on my warlock in about 10 games. System is fine. Miles better than previous Iron banner bounties. I recall taking 30 games to finish an ability kill bounty. Or having to do 20 completion matches since I was always tossed into losing games. Glad Bungie made these iron banner bounties easier this time around,

        • At this point, I'm just thankful whenever I see that the abilities kill bounty is not in the rotation.

          • I was playing last night and finished all 4 in roughly 2 hours. I'm not great at PVP either......

            • I agree. But as long as no changes to matchmaking are implemented this will remain a minor issue in comparison. So much fun yesterday running into teams with 6 unbroken/flawless players who came out with KD up to 36 = 36 kills, no death. Regardless of normal or freelance. And then of course players on the losing side make 1-2% bounties progress per game and will take forever. Where the superior players will tell you it is super easy and they can finish the bounties in half an hour.

            • It takes me about 5hrs with breaks to finish it solo. With group of friends we got it done in hr or 2. It really isnt that bad but as solo I get it , it does get abit tiresome
