Hey all,
Iron Banner is now available! From last week's [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Explore/Detail/News/46596]TWAB[/url], here's what's changing for how you earn Rewards.

The game is [b]Control[/b]!
This will be the first time Lord Saladin returns to the Tower in Season 2. There have been some changes to how you’ll go about decorating your Guardian with relics of the Iron Lords.
First, we are adding new items to the engrams you will find waiting for you when you visit Lord Saladin. There will definitely be Season 2 weapons in the Iron Banner Engram and we will be adding more in the next event. Here is a look at what rewards you can expect to earn next week.

If you are missing items from last season, they will still drop as possible rewards from the engram. There is also a new emblem that tracks how many lifetime rank ups for Iron Banner you have earned in Destiny 2. You can earn it by completing the Iron Banner Milestone.

We've received a lot of feedback from previous Iron Banner events that players preferred a way to directly acquire items. We have added the ability to obtain armor and three different weapons from Lord Saladin during each event. Here is what he has to offer next week.
The final way to earn rewards is by completing challenges. Ornaments are available for all your Iron Banner gear and you can unlock them by completing various objectives for Lord Saladin.

There are no limits to how many engrams you can acquire or how many tokens you can earn. Get as much playtime as you can during the week. It will always move you a little closer to opening another engram, earning an ornament, or purchasing a piece of gear from Lord Saladin. Go nuts![/quote]
Sound off with your feedback. What did you enjoy? What do you believe could be better?
I'll be collecting feedback and passing it along to appropriate teams as it comes in!
Cheers,

3 RisposteEvery game is solos vs stacks, who thought this was a good idea? Is this how you want your game to be? This shit is going downhill fast.
-
Iron Banner? You mean Leave Game? If your team even begins to lose everyone leaves. No punishment, no cares and everyone loses. This is not PvP it's stacked teams vs leavers.

2 RisposteWtf bungle.....played 18 games of IB but Milestone shows only 33% complete.....and only 4 of those games are wins. Just saying....this reminds me of that scene from little Nicki....you know.....the scene where you shove a pineapple up my ass without lube. Please.....just once use the lube. But until you do, at least there is Monster Hunter with FREE DLC.
-
1 RispondiLoving it! Hit or miss solo, still fun. Pubstomping when I get a team together! Getting upwards of 7.0 k/d!
-
Played about 3 hours worth of matches to get a feel for it. I feel horrible for calling the game shit as it's an insult to shit itself. Hopefully Match.com can take over matchmaking in the D3 or so.
-
3 RisposteMatchmaking is just jacked up. 24 matches and 4 wins tonight. Getting thrown into matches already lost - landed in one when it was 51-7. Either that or land in a match when everyone else has a super and just get crushed. It’s simply not fun...
-
PVP is so fundamentally broken that WHO CARES IB IS ON????
-
3 RisposteLower the chest ornament requirement, please.
-
You guys just need to rename this event for what it is: cheaters banner.
-
8 RisposteChest piece ornament is ridiculous. Bungie does stuff like that cuz they think its gonna force people to play longer but in reality it just makes peolle not play, got 5 games into banner before i realized its 200 melee kills, oh well, back to pubg till september
-
2 RisposteModificato da LeGrand Daddy: 2/1/2018 11:14:26 PMThe helmet ornaments locked behind 25 banner wins is rough... no one I know plays Destiny anymore and I’m just getting wasted by the teams of 3 or 4.
-
2 RisposteThank you for offering options to buy gear. I was able to quickly get a Titan helmet that completely eluded me during the previous IB. And I spent a lot of time and effort back then trying to get it.
-
2 Risposte@BUNGIE These events would be so much better with some nice story and lore to go with it. As events are implemented now they are just plain boring,were is the rich story and deep lore gone to in Destiny??!!
-
Hey Dmg, Could you pass up the chain on having some IB rewards drop post match like in the past (D1).

2 RisposteLocation : Australian East Coast Time :0830-0930 Date : Friday 2 Feb 2018 Got into first IB game no delays Win w/Average KDA 2.5 10min and still waiting for next game Stuck at 1/8 searching for guardians Help

1 RispondiThanks for today's challenge of shutting down someone in their super. It's not like I'm going against 4 man premade invis nightstalkers every game or anything. Played about 10 matches and barely seen a super near me that isn't a tether.

6 RisposteModificato da N00bMaster69: 2/1/2018 8:05:17 AMTried it the other day (first time in a few months) as I liked the look of some of the ornaments played about 5 games managed to win 1 was teamed up against a few clans as a solo player and just felt like we had no chance, some of it thanks to idiot teammates but it feels like even if your amazing player your not going to be able to take on a team (Which I am not), some of the games I was even top of my team and when that's happening our team def has no chance, saw the 25 wins for the helm ornament and stopped there, problem is if I played enough I know eventually I would get the wins but it's simply not fun, played for one night and the whole thing felt like a chore and for what? Some cosmetic gear that doesn't really do anything, been holding on to this game in the hope it'll get better but think it's finally time to trade it in.

3 RisposteI’m torn right now. On one hand I like how some ornaments I got almost instantly to put on my gear. On the other, except for the melee/nade kill ornament, there isn’t much of a grind for the rest of the IBs this season to do other than if there is a gun we want from the pool, or that perfect roll on the sparrow or ghost. Correct me if I’m wrong, shouldn’t we have a grind on the ornaments that would take us at least 50-75% of the Iron Banners in the season? What else will we have to work towards in the remaining Iron Banners till Season 3 in May? I love I.B., want the gear and ornaments for them, but barring the grenade/melee one, they seem almost too easy to earn. Worried that I won’t have much of a reason to play a lot of Iron Banner next time around and It’s always been the event I look forward to each month

1 RispondiLOL RESKINKS YOUR GAME IS DEAD

1 RispondiWell, let’s look at match making, spawn locations and lag, all of which are woefully poor. Bungie should be ashamed of themselves. This game is so shallow it would take a complete re-boot, essentially a new game. It doesn’t worry me the state of D2 but what should be a worry is that Bungie thought this was the best they could do.
-
4 RisposteDmg- stop putting me in a game half way through where my team is getting anally -blam!- and the enemy team all had their supers.
-
3 RisposteModificato da Clint: 2/1/2018 9:25:27 PMIt's sh*te.. 90% of games I'm solo matched against fireteams of 4. Solo teams of randoms don't stand a chance.. There are so many full fire teams why isn't there a matchmaking system in place so they can play each other so us friendless losers can have a chance at winning.. Literally all I'm there for is to lose.. It's not fun at all.. Even if I'm on the losing team when I'm not up against a full fireteam it's a much closer game, and fun.. I just played 7 games in a row.. Only full fireteams on the other side. It seems completely pointless playing. I can't get enough kills for the ornaments and I can't stay alive long enough to even get the 5 kills in one life for the milestone.. It's actually pointless even logging in at the moment. Oh and get good lot can go get a life before you chip in.

3 RisposteI’m just here for the shaders 🙌🏽

1 RispondiIt's great to see the effort to put in to provide players with options to select specific rewards using their IB tokens. However, the core element is still missing that made Iron Banner an event to anticipate. It's still just regular Crucible. No Light level advantages. Rewards that provide no avenue to assist with leveling a character up. These were two things that really set the Iron Banner apart as an EVENT! There really is nothing special about it anymore, which is very disappointing.

55 RisposteModificato da Heijoshin: 1/31/2018 1:51:09 AM[quote]Sound off with your feedback. What did you enjoy? What do you believe could be better?[/quote] Here's feedback: Why the hell would you force people to win 25 matches just for a skin? Do devs not understand that it's possible to tilt matches? Could devs not develop participation-based rewarding for the ornaments? It's a video game, not some nerd MLG competition. Lighten the hell up. The Melee/Grenade kill requirement is a start but you get about .75% gain per kill it seems... Unnecessarily grindy as hell. The milestone requirement isn't bad at all. I get they should be "challenging" ornaments to obtain but should require less hours of time played to obtain. E.G: -Complete 30 matches. -Kill 25 enemies using your super. -Kill 40 enemies using a hand cannon (get people to use different weaponry for a change). -Compete 3 matches with a lead of 20 points or more upon winning. -Earn 130 tokens in the iron banner -Win 10 games with a clan mate. ATTAINABILITY. The game is donating gear as is. Why is iron banner so damned special?
