What if Iron Banner gave us Glory points?

WARNING: THIS IS NOT A COMPLAIN POST. LOVE THE GAME EVEN WITH ALL ITS PROBLEMS. PLEASE DON'T BE TOXIC, THANK YOU. Don't know if this was ever meant to be a thing or was a thing or anything(in year one crucible didn't even exist for me 😂), but i think it would be a good idea. Basically Iron Banner would give both Valor points, like it does now, AND Glory points when you win (maybe even in a less amount in comparison to competitive); the difference would be that you don't lose Glory points like in competitive when you lose, but simply don't get any. I also thought that regular comp players would get an advantage out of this cause probably some of them move for a week to Iron Banner but this "slows" their progress in competitive. This would also balance more things, cause basically all non-skilled PvP players will grind Iron Banner when it comes out for ranking up while skilled players (which will anyway play Iron Banner and progress, too) would find better opponents in competitive when Iron Banner is not out (yes, this would also mean less easy wins but it shouldn't be a problem... right?). I would love to hear the opinion of regular PvP players and owners of pinnacle weapons, cause of course this would simplify the process in getting them. Hope you guys see this, have an awesome day💪🏻 (by the way i'm not english so sorry for any grammar errors) EDIT 1 To everyone that speaks about being "loyal and worthy": this is a game, where i should have fun chasing things that i want, not prove my worthiness or loyalty (....to who/what?). I've seen more people that don't actually even have fun while getting pinnacle weapons and saying "i will never go back in comp, that was horrible" : that's wrong, it shouldn't be like this. I don't want things for free. Grind MUST stay a thing, but it also have to be genuine and at least satisfying (and not only when you reach the goal) and i think Bungie goal is to make us fell like this in any activity we jump in. This is a bit out of of the topic but i wanted to share it and let you know that i anyway respect everyone opinions even if i don't agree with them. The only thing i can kinda agree would be the "6 sweats teams" probably even packed with LH and NF. But i would anyway give it a try: let's see it as a "test" to see if you actually improve while "practicing" in Quickplay (speaking regarding the non-skilled players). And for last, i would like to remind that just because you have LH and NF, doesn't necessary mean you are invincible (and there are anyway weapons that can face them). If you find yourself against very strong weapons, it means that you will need to improve your tactics to win. I would expect a change like this to come out next year, and of course with new pinnacle weapons that fits good with this new implementation. (sorry again for any grammar errors)

  • How can you people argue that a player worthy off getting prin guns deserve them only. If they r that good then why do they need them and use them. Destiny really do have this back to front. PvP guns should be rewarded in pve and pve gun's in PvP. Balance

  • So you basically want an easier way for lesser-skilled players to get Crucible pinnacle weapons? If you can't get them via Competitive, you're not worthy of using them.

    • Honestly its an interesting prospect, I've particularly noticed that iron banner has been feeling more...competitive with each release and now with the iron burden thing, its just turned iron banner into an event thats actually challenging Sometimes i had easier comp games than iron banner tbh So the idea of iron banner rewarding glorly upon wins would be interesting, Although I would imagine that it be best if glory points weren't rewarded as much as you would get from a competitive game Kinda like halving the amount if glory points you could earn upon a win

    • Glory in iron banner is not the answer but something needs to change with Glory points system

    • No, there is no point in catering to casuals by removing glory loss from lost games. That completely defeats the purpose of "competitive."

      • Add in rotating game modes for ib and a cap on glory each day and I'd say it's a good idea

      • Iron banner mayhem that gives glory points. Yes by all means. Shitty iron banana control that most if not half the community loses because of power levels,comp weapon supremacy,and all around people who only play PvP for "fun". Sorry but no to that.

      • They could make the next PvP pinnacle weapon center around iron banner but allow comp players to get it as well just more quickly.

          • I liked this thread more out of humor, but it would be nice if at the very least Glory ranks locked once you reached them.

            • Let's make Glory have set guns with no grenade launcher s, snipers, shot guns, exotic weapons power weapons etc etc and then see who has skill in the game

              • I wouldn’t mind it, but there is one glaring problem. Light level. I don’t think power level should be in play in a “competitive” mode.

                • You don’t know what you are suggesting, if that was the case no one would be able to win solo in iron banner. 6 stacks would be everywhere.

                • I like the idea only if there is a cap to the amount of glory you can gain whether that be per day or IB idk. Though you shouldn't get the pinnacle Competitive weapons from not playing competitive.

                  • Valor/Glory points system was a bad idea. It only divides the community.

                  • Pinnacles weapons never should have been introduced, they are making exotic weapons pointless and dividing the community even further.

                      • Yes, glory points should be given during IB, but also lost. These pinnacle weapons are exceptional, almost OP in some cases, but they are a pain in the ash to get unless you’re in a sweaty stack. IB is really the only true Competitive mode, the “Competitive” is anything but that. I obtained my LH solo while somehow maintaining a positive KD and I am average at best, if I can get it done so can most, and if you find yourself lacking in skill, work at getting better, it is possible but it does not happen over night. Anyone can run in a sweaty stack, takes a real player to get these done solo, KD be dammed... lmao.

                      • Lot of people here saying “if you need this then you don’t deserve pinnacle weapons” like there aren’t people who literally pay people to get the weapon for them/search for carries. Pinnacle weapons are not automatic win buttons y’all. Tbh IB is probably way more sweaty than comp anyhow so adding 30ish glory per win isn’t gonna break the system. Just have it not factor win streaks to keep it a flat rate.

                        • I don’t play iron banner anymore. Waste of time. But adding glory to it would make it very interesting as a weekly activity. This idea has substance. Upvote granted.

                        • Bad idea, 6 stacks of NF's would have a field day with this.
