iron banner is useless? not really

Unless you spend hours a day farming legendaries and exotics. Of course the gear isn't better than the level 30 gear you already have. Why would it be? Bungie wouldn't make a php event that gives you stuff better than end game gear. My guess is that the idea behind the events is an alternative way for players to get decent gear without having to depend on RNG. It's not designed for the players who maxed out their game in a month. So if you're the one complaining about iron banner being pointless or useless, it's because you ruined it for yourself. Congratulations.

    I'll be honest, I expected more of a long - game with Destiny. With level 30 being the highest level, I expected the most hard core players to max out in 4-5 months if not longer. I expected a much longer and slower progression that was on a more steady linear line instead of a sharp upswing when you get lucky RNG. I was expecting legendaries to be super rare, getting one in a month was something I would've considered lucky. Exotics were something I thought you would only get after tons of time invested into the game, or after completing the absolute most elite of activities. The endgame came a hell of a lot quicker for me than I expected, and I assume that there are others, like me, who expected that to be level 28-30 so soon would be impossible. What I expected was to level up from 20 to 21 in a week or so, and to get from 28-29 taking a month or more and 29-30 taking a couple months. I played a lot and my enthusiasm carried me through now, & I don't think I ruined it for myself, I rather think that Bungie made a game that a few people completed within a few weeks. And by completed I mean played every activity, including hard mode raiding and reaching the max level. For someone that is level 30, collecting different unique gear is probably the only thing left of interest. Anything with a different looking skin or a different feel from what we have already seen is sadly scarce. So if getting a different looking legendary with slightly different attributes will take me down a level or two until I level it back up, so be it. I enjoy playing the game and I look forward to future Destiny when more and more items have been added so that there is a decent variety and character builds will end up being truly unique. So getting iron banner gear, yes please.
