Make new iron banner gear and give us a reason to play crucible/iron banner

Iron banner is yet again pointless. There's three "new" weapons another handcannon, another shotgun and a sword. Why is it never a scout or a trace rifles or a linear fusion rifle? If I want the new iron banner shader I can just turn in tokens and dismantle something with it on. If I want the new weapons which I already have I can turn in tokens. There is zero reason to play it because most people just let tokens build up when they do decide to play it and most play it with the mindset of "If I keep tokens for next season there might be something new." At this point if you want it to be worth playing do a different mode, make it something like rift. Add one of every weapon and bring back the old D1 weapons. Add new armour and add legacy D1 sets along with shaders and emblems, ships and sparrows and ghosts. That small change just revamped iron banner and made it more played because everyone will be grinding for the armour especially ttk armour. By adding new cosmetics like shaders, emblems, ships, sparrows, ghosts and maybe even an emote you have given people a reason to play and not just hoard tokens . Make the rewards after match rewards with higher ranks giving higher drop rates. Do the same in crucible add old shaders, sparrows, ghosts, emblems, ships, special crucible themed emotes, ghost projections, transmat effects as after match rewards. Higher ranks higher drop chances. Slap in new modes that are permanent like rift, combined arms, salvage. Add new armour even D1 armour and there crucible feels like it has had some love and people won't moan as much because there's a reason to play it again. Add all the old maps back from D2 vanilla. Bring back some more D1 maps and add a new crucible map every couple of seasons. If you can revamp the helm every season you can make a crucible map every three seasons. Crucible has not been touched since arrivals when you removed half the maps.

      • The new hand cannon is MEH. I've already killed Guardians with it in Control. I got it the day Witch Queen launched when I cashed in on an Iron Banner bounty. There is a new perk for when the Howl of the Wolves is active, though, which is interesting.

      • I haven't seen or heard anything about new armour so I'm guessing its just gonna be a reissued D2 set yet again which really sucks as I don't like any of D2's iron banner armour and I am so sick and tired of them being reissued over and over and over again.I think a couple of them have been reissued about 3 or 4 times already.

      • i think rewards would only entice those who are good at PvP. Those who are not are still going to complain about getting those weapons are "too hard for casual players", so it's a damned if they do, damned if they don't

        • We had Guiding Sight Scout reissued last year and the Talons of the Eagle the year before. As for linear fusions. Theyre basically the ugly duckling of the weapon archetypes right now and very counterintuitive to the needs of PVP. I do feel you on the rest of the stuff. They announced a while back they're doing an overhaul of IB rewards later this year around the summer. Hopefully its similar to what we got with Drifter right now so i can quit wasting tokens getting a perfect Forward Path that doesn't bounce like a pogo stick. Other issue too is that Bungie needs to reflect on and refine gun designs more. That is to say rather than create say another 360 Auto Rifle in the same element like Chrysua Melo/Come to Pass establish distinct differences in the perk pools with combos for specific playstyle niches such as demolitionist/adrenaline junkie for grenadiers or adaptive munitions/shield disorient for PVE shieldbreakers. Also the IB sword isn't half bad, its basically Falling Guillotine for those who weren't around to get one.
