Why so much hate on iron banner gear?

I don't understand all the controversy going on about "oh you got iron banner gear on you are a scrub" . For what reason makes them a "noob" or "not a real 32". Please explain to me . Edit: its great to know some people agree with me ! They are not noobs for having iron banner armor it should be the complete opposite ! Edit: since this is a trending topic, why not look for other guardians to join you on your quest for iron banner gear !

  • I like the look of IB gear but the perks are shit compared to the raid gear.

  • I will be using the gloves only to supplement my level till I get enough shards to hit the cap with my actual raid gear. Simple enough.

  • Yep typical immature BS, nothing more. The stupidity of this forum amazes me day after day. I swear people are just saying things like this to 'stir the pot' and get a reaction out of others. If they are saying this shit seriously, wow, I'd hate to meet this group in person. Idiots....

  • use iron banner armor for iron banner and raid gear for the raid.......... 32 is 32 no matter how you got there, anyway the iron banner gear just looks alot better

    • I hate people who hate on IB gear, it looks the best in my opinion and not everyone can be blessed with full raid gear in their first couple completions

    • I want full IB gear because imo it's the best looking armor... especially with glowhoo.

      • I don't agree with calling banner gear users noobs, but I do acknowledge the reason behind it. When you look at things from a raiders prospective you see that iron banner gear is lacking greatly. Here's why: 1st bonus ammo perks Iron banner gear is tilled to favor pvp and in pvp it is largely about primaries thus the gear allows for more auto rifle ammo in reserve. In raids however it's all about gaining and carrying as much heavy and sniper ammo as possible so that when your team is focusing high value targets you are doing as much damage as possible so the raid gear has more heavy ammo in reserve. 2nd are the other perks Raid gear perks are designed specifically for that raid. Don't tell me that your increased grenade cool down from melee kills is as beneficial to you as my increased agility with the sword while we are doing the bridge because it's not. Tldr: banner gear != scrub Thinking banner gear is as good for raiding as raid gear is == scrub (10 points to the first guy to identify the programming language I have been studying)

        • the 32 boots don't have the heavy ammo perk. This means you wont lose heavy after a death or orbit due to the glitch. seems someone running the 32 IB legs may be smarter than all those "real" 32's.

          • 32 is 32. Grinding to get there through IB is nothing to sneeze at, and neither is raiding until you get there. Saying you're "not a real 32,31,12,29" = pre-teen whining. It's a video game, ladies and gentlemen. Just have fun and enjoy the grind any way you choose.

          • Gonna grind my balls off for the IB gear. The hunter raid armor looks hella stupid with the knife and skull and big GWAR looking piece off of the shoulder. Helm looks cool. Rest = ghey.

          • I know. Oh man grinding the raid to get a random drop takes ssoooo much more talent. This game takes no talent. Who cares how you get to lvl 32. The raids are as much or more of a joke as the Iron Banner. Get over yourselves. Why take pride in what you get or do in this game? Bungie and Activision obviously doesn't.

          • Personally the iron banner gear looks cooler than the raid gear so id wear it for sure, plus it makes use of my ascendant mats. Sadly I dismantled all mine because they were rank 30 gear and 31... But I'm curious has the nerf/ buff update taken effect yet? I haven't noticed any change but it could be my play style Of using the weapons they way they're built and should be handled if they were you know, real.

          • Harder to get IB gear? Hahahahahahaha!!!!! All you need to do is play a set amount of time. Loss tokens ensure it's garaunteed to obtain. No RNG involved AT ALL.

            • There is no "controversy". Anyone who would criticize you for your gear or say you are "not a real 32" is an ignorant child that is beneath contempt and not worthy of your attention or recognition. The same is true for the "If you use _____, you're a scrub" idiots. Kids these days just like to hear themselves bitch and moan, and if they don't have something valid to bitch and moan about, they create drama so they can bitch and moan. Don't get mad, have pity because these people are going to have a difficult life when they finally realize that they are not the precious little snowflakes their parents led them to believe they are. Don't feed the trolls. That is all.

              Those haters just suck at the Crusibal and know they can't get that gear. "The crucible is no place for the weak!"

                • Lol its another repeat of the level 30 ib gear before ce came out. People will bitch about anything that helps other players who aren't at the same rank.
