Iron Banner rewards are terrible
Since I jumped back into D2 again in Haunted, I’ve done 5 resets in IB. For that I got a rocket launcher that isn’t terrible. Everything else has been an insta-shard. Not that it’s been much because the drop rates are abysmal and weapon focusing has only let me pay an extra ton of resources for drops I don’t even need to inspect.
With only 2 IB’s per season and the new awful ranking system it’s virtually impossible to get anything decent from this event.
It needs a serious re-work.
Also, Eruption is really, really bad. It’s just Clash with a lame kill-streak mechanic.

Maybe if they want less ability spam in this mode it could get the momentum control treatment where ability's only regen based on kills or the Eruption system No game mode type is going to make everyone happy. I do however think that every match(or at least every win) should reward an Iron Banner drop, rep should not be the main way to get rewards. In my limited experience it is currently only like 1 in 5 matches, win or lose, that gives a drop which feels bad. Also we really need the mode to come up more often, like every other/third week.
